长长的周末要到了,但你还没想好要去哪儿?
Got a long weekend coming up but can't decide where to go?
一家新的旅行社可以帮你做这个决定,不过还有个新创意,那就是到机场了你才能知道要去哪儿。
A new travel agency is offering to do that for you, but there's a twist. You won't know where you're going until you reach the airport.
“说走就走”这个旅行项目会给你一个惊喜的美国国内行程,它会基于你填的调查表为你做行程计划。
Pack Up + Go builds surprise itineraries spanning the U.S. and plans your trip based on a survey you fill out.
这个理念是宾夕法尼亚的莉莲·拉夫森在年仅23岁时想出来的,针对的是那些喜欢旅行但讨厌做计划的人。
The concept was founded by Pennsylvania-based Lillian Rafson when she was only 23 and targets people who 'love travelling but loathe planning'.
客户首先被要求填一张调查表,详细说明他们想要启程的日期和假期时间。
Clients are first asked to fill out a survey detailing their departure date and holiday preferences.
问题中包括你去过的地方,你只是想出去走走还是要体验文化、抑或是为了放松。旅行者也会被问及他们的爱好、饮食限制和身体状况。
Questions include where you've been already and whether you are looking for action, culture or relaxation. The traveller is also asked about their hobbies, dietary restrictions, and physical state.
旅行前一周,“说走就走”会发给你一个邮包,包含一份天气预报、打包建议和交通指南。还有一个信封必须等客户到目的地才能打开。
In the week running up to the trip, Pack Up + Go sends a parcel containing a weather forecast, packing suggestions, and transport instructions. It also contains an envelope that mustn't be opened until the client has reached their final destination.
信封里有目的地的城市指南。
That envelope contains a city guide for their location.
网站上说明了“说走就走”只能把客户送到“美国中等城市”,离家不超过4小时的路程。
According to their website, Pack + Go only send clients to 'mid-sized American cities', which are no more than four hours away from home.
小孩也可以参加,不在同一个城市的朋友也可以组团报名去同一个目的地。
Kids are welcome, and friends who live in different cities can sign up as a group to end up in the same place.
