每年我們都會受邀參加各種各樣的聚會或慶;顒樱热缁槎Y、滿月酒以及同學會等等。參加這類活動似乎是我們的職責所在,所以出門參加這樣的活動就叫obligation trips;而且參加活動不但要出時間,還要送紅包。這樣一來,想自己出去真正度個假的時候卻發(fā)現既沒有時間也沒有閑錢了。
Obligation trips are the trips that people make to witness other people’s milestones like weddings, college graduations, or various kinds of reunions. They are not supposed to say no to these invitations and these trips are filling up their travel calendars and invading their savings.
Obligation trips(盡責之旅)指人們受邀出席的那些重要聚會活動,如婚禮、大學畢業(yè)典禮或各類聚會。他們一般無法拒絕這樣的邀請,而這一類活動占據了他們大部分的出行計劃,同時也讓他們的錢包被掏空不少。
Forty-one percent of U.S. travelers spend the majority of their vacation budgets on obligation trips, according to survey data recently released by Hotwire.com. As travelers jet around for other people's milestones, many are wishing for a getaway of their own. Hotwire's survey found that 89 percent of adults want to take more leisure trips but don't have the time or money for these vacations. (Source: huffingtonpost.com)
