Most of the time, beauty lies in the simplest of things. 大多數(shù)時候，美存在于最簡單的事物中。

It was actually really nice to be able to go to the hosts’ place after my day’s visit. It gets dark really quickly during winters in Europe, usually before the end of the working day around 5pm. The weather was often miserably cold and rainy; just the sort of weather for returning to the host’s place where we either shared food or I cooked for them.

可以在一天的游覽完畢后回到我沙發(fā)主人的家感覺真的很好。在歐洲的冬天都天黑的很快，差不多在一天結(jié)束工作之前就會全黑了。天氣也經(jīng)常很冷又下雨。當(dāng)天公不作美的時候，回到主人家可以一起分享食物或者我煮飯給他們吃實在太棒。

This time in Switzerland I even had the opportunity to share amazing special food from my hosts, like Matthew in Bern who taught me how to make Raclette, which looks like Swiss Grill with cheese using a special oven. While I stayed with J in Lucerne, who’s from Hawaii but lived in Switzerland for many years, he made lao lao, a Hawaiian meal wrapped with taro leaves. It was really impressive. I will never forget its fragrance and taste. It was so delicious too.

這次在瑞士我有幸能享受到來自我沙發(fā)主人許多美味又特別的食物，像是在Bern的Matthew叫我如何吃Raclette，一種用使用特別烤盤和用奶酪制作的瑞士燒烤，還有當(dāng)我在魯森和來自夏威夷的J一起分享他做的嘮嘮，是一種用芋頭葉子包起來的夏威夷傳統(tǒng)食物。真的超級棒。我永遠都不會忘記那個香味還有味道。吃起來也十分美味。

Saving money and sharing food with Couchsurfers is great, but nothing compared to the rewards of hearing the stories of people who live there and exchanging experiences. For me, it was also an opportunity to share and contribute my experiences and knowledge.

利用沙發(fā)沖浪的方式來省錢和分享食物雖然很棒，但是分享住在當(dāng)?shù)厝藗兊纳詈徒粨Q彼此的經(jīng)驗是什么也比不上的。對于我來說，也是一個可以分享和貢獻我經(jīng)驗和知識的機會。

J was a very special man and he shared many stories with me. He was an artist and was really kind when we met. A few years ago, when J was a successful entrepreneur he experienced a tragic family bereavement which left him feeling sad, angry and lost. He made a few big lifestyle changes including moving to Switzerland and was now ready to share his stories so as to help other people heal. I have been a podcaster for many years and I want to use this knowledge to help others too. Over the years I've benefited tremendously by telling my own healing stories, helping others and making a living. One night, we sat down and created a podcast together and organized the ideas. It was a very beautiful moment that I will never forget.

J是一個非常特別的人，他和我分享了許多故事。他是一個藝術(shù)家而且當(dāng)我們見面的時候非常的友善。幾年前，J是個成功的生意人卻遭遇了一個悲劇般的喪親事件讓他傷心、生氣又失落。他做了許多生活型態(tài)的大改變，其中包括搬到瑞士來，現(xiàn)在他也準(zhǔn)備好分享自己的故事來幫助別人療愈。我作為一個播主已經(jīng)多年，而且我也希望用我的知識來幫助別人。幾年來，我也收益于講述自己的療愈故事，幫助別人來謀生。有一晚，我們就坐下來幫助他創(chuàng)造一個播客然后組織一些想法。那是一個非常美麗，而且讓我永遠不會忘記的時刻。
