I have traveled more than half of China, and I don’t want to go on road trip any more. Let’s talk about the six big pits in go on road trip.
What I longed for most before buying a car was go on road trip, which was also one of my motivations for buying a car. After I got a car, I spent five years in Shandong, Hebei, Jiangsu, Henan, Shanxi and many other neighboring provinces and cities. It can be said that I have traveled all over half of China, but I really suffered a lot. I don’t want to go on road trip anymore.
The first one is that it is too laborious. When I got married, I traveled with a group, and it only cost 3,000 yuan for 6 days and 7 nights. But go on road trip is not as simple as traveling with a group. You need to plan your destination, decide your hotel and consider where to eat. All this will involve a lot of energy. The key point is that it is easy to be slaughtered because of strangers.
The second is that long-distance driving can cause people to be very tired. Even if we husband and wife take turns driving, we will feel very tired if we run 400km every day. Because one person has to drive, and the other person has to plan the destination. Two people are not only physically tired, but also mentally tired. Especially in traffic jams, it is really annoying.
The third is to spend too much money. When I was driving in go on road trip, my husband and I decided that the driving distance should never exceed 400km every day, just for fun, even small scenic spots should be visited. As a result, it is found that the cost of travel and fuel for two people alone is 300 yuan, the cost of small scenic spots is 100 yuan per day on average, the cost of accommodation is 200 yuan, and the cost of eating is 100 yuan, so the minimum cost is 700 yuan per day.
The third is that if you run too much, it is inevitable that vehicles will lie down. Especially on the highway, the problem is very serious. Just looking for a rescue trailer doesn’t know how much it will cost. Don’t think that the chance of lying down is very small. We did lie down once. Fortunately, the insurance company has an emergency rescue service, and that rescue didn’t cost a penny.
The fourth is that time is too tight and people are exhausted. Most people in go on road trip want to experience different kinds of life and enjoy different scenery. However, considering the pressure of money, I always hope to visit more scenic spots in a short time. In the end, I am too nervous and exhausted, and I can’t enjoy any travel at all.
Fifth, parking is a waste of time. Generally, when you travel, you will visit the scenic spots, but almost every scenic spot is in a state of bursting. It is nothing to spend some parking fees. The key is to find a parking lot with a place and it is still far from the scenic spots. If you walk all the way to the entrance of the scenic spot in summer, it will make you sweat all over.
Therefore, this post is a post to persuade everyone, especially don’t go to go on road trip in the summer. My suggestion is to go to the northeast in summer and to the south in winter. You must go out when the temperature is right, or you will suffer.
