Hotels
旅館
Hotels are kind of like the purgatory of living arrangements.
旅館里的生活安排有點兒像煉獄一樣。
It is a place that is hard to feel comfortable in despite the fact that you do "home-like" activities such as sleeping, bathing, and brushing.
盡管你在做“類似家里”的活動,如睡覺、洗澡和刷牙,但是卻很難感覺到舒適。
The drastic change in living arrangements could shake you out of auto-pilot from your daily routine and increase your awareness and ability to live in the present.
生活安排的急劇變化會讓你從每天例行的自動巡航狀態中跳出來,增加你活在當下的意識和能力。
