Beijing November 3rd news, according to the voice of the Chinese voice "the news late peak", talk about your dreams. Many people would say that one day they can travel around the world with their loved ones. However, few people actually put their dreams into reality and start a round the world tour.
in Yanzhou, Shandong, there is such a family of three. They not only have dreams, but also dare to act. In order to travel around the world, they sold cars and sold houses and bought a boat to go sailing. The couple with two children will start from Yanzhou next week and begin their own "dream trip".
noon, when the reporter called Zhai Feng phone, they were making final preparations for the whole family's voyage. In October, Zhai told reporters that he bought a blue - bottom steel sailing ship at the Langkawi in Malaysia from a pair of Holland couples in the hands of a couple of Holland couples in the hands of a pair of Holland couples. After a few days, the ship was their new home.
Zhai Feng: we all went to Malaysia for our ticket No. six, and then my boat gave him a deposit. Before 9, we paid the rest of the ship to us and we moved to the boat.
Zhai Feng said that the family planned to take a month to adapt to the life of the boat, and then start the "boat" from the end of the year to the next year, and then began to travel the world from the end of the year to next year.
Zhai Feng: it will be in Southeast Asia, Indonesia, Thailand, Malaysia and Sri Lanka until March next year. After the wind changed in March, we returned home and had some things to deal with. Then next year's seven or eight, nine, ten months, look at the idea of sailing north to Sakhalin.
in order to achieve this dream, Zhai Feng and his wife gave up the work of the state-owned enterprises. The three grade daughter of primary school was ready to rest and the house had been sold for many years. Give up the easy life, the state-owned enterprise work, the house, the automobile, the family drifting on the sea, all has no guarantee, tired, the injury, the inmeasurable storm. Zhai Feng's wife Sun Hongyan told reporters that they were not simply seeking excitement, but wanted to change their way of life.
but the distance between dreams and reality is always so great. From the idea of birth, Zhai Feng and Sun Hongyan hear all kinds of opposition from relatives and friends. Before the departure, the parents still disagreed, and there was only one supporter in the friend who was willing to lend the car to him as a walking tool. Sun Hongyan said he hoped his actions could change people around him.
Sun Hongyan: they are still blessing us while reservations. I certainly look forward to the behavior of our pursuit of dreams, to change a lot of friends around, or to change our understanding of these people, and then to drive more people. I want to tell them that life is really wonderful. As long as you work hard and set goals, we will achieve them.
daughters will also travel with them. What are they doing in primary school children? Zhai Feng said they were ready.
Zhai Feng: Children's education we will bring teaching materials, and to contact the teacher, online pass some test papers to us, some review questions and so on.
travel around the world only by a steel sailing boat. For Zhai Feng, who has been living in a inland city, the mysterious sea and language are the biggest problems they face.
Sun Hongyan: I can grasp some knowledge of navigation, and I can deal with it in time of malfunction or special circumstances.
Zhai Feng: one is language, and the other is navigation technology. We learn slowly, because we are very elementary, these two things.
many dreams fade away in the process of growing up. Perhaps many people do not agree with Zhai Feng's tour of the world, but many people admire their courage and free and easy. Not anyone can throw away the things they build, and open their own journey of seeking dreams. Wish this family three, the journey is smooth.
we all say that the journey of a thousand miles begins with the first step, so it is really a good blessing here, and I wish them all a safe return.
