After the trip started, everything slowed down gradually. At first, I was trying to adjust the jet lag, so even if I wanted to be fast, I couldn't get up. Later, I found that everything here was slow,
So I began to tell myself, then slow down.
Many things here are very slow. For example, the bus is used to the efficiency of the Taipei MRT that runs every five minutes. The bus here runs every 20 minutes or 30 minutes. Even if there is a bus that runs every 15 minutes, it often causes a long wait because the bus is delayed.
I observed the reason why the bus was delayed. It was often that the bus driver might stop at the roadside and run to the bathroom halfway. Otherwise, on rainy days, the driver would stop to clean the front window. These wonderful phenomena really surprised me.
In addition, if there is no traffic jam in Taiwan's buses, they often drive very fast, which is due to the extent that the bus will throw people away. But the bus here, even if the whole road ahead is empty, the driver still drives too slowly. I often have the feeling that I am taking a sightseeing bus every day XD
I'm beginning to understand why everyone has to drive. That's why there are often no people on the bus~~
I don't know if it is the reason why I am traveling. I always feel that the pedestrians around are walking slowly and leisurely. Everyone is like a jobless vagrant. This is also a rare experience,
In fact, when you slow down, you will really live in the present, and often stop to enjoy the beautiful scenery of life. This feeling is also very good.
旅行開始後,所有的一切都逐漸慢下來,一開始我是為了調時差,所以即使想快也快不起來,後來發現這裡的一切都是慢的,
於是我開始告訴自己,那就慢下來吧。
這裡很多東西很慢,例如公車,習慣了台北捷運每5分鐘就來一班的效率,這裡的公車動不動就20分鐘或30分鐘一班,即使有15分鐘一班的公車,也經常因為公車誤點而導致等很久。
我觀察下公車誤點的原因,經常是公車司機可能開一半就停在路邊跑去洗手間,不然就是下雨天,司機停車下車擦前車窗,這些奇妙的現象,真的很讓我感到驚訝。
另外台灣的公車,如果不塞車,經常開得飛快,是屬於車子要把人甩飛的程度,但這裡的公車,即使前方整條路都是空的,司機還是開地慢到不行,我經常有種我好像天天在坐觀光巴士的感覺XD
我開始明白為什麼人人都要開車了,這也是公車經常沒什麼人坐的原因吧~~
不知道是不是我在旅行的原因,我老覺得四周的行人走路都慢悠悠的,每個人都好像無業遊民一樣,這也是很難得的一個體驗,
其實慢下來後,真的會更活在當下,經常佇足欣賞生活美麗的風景,這樣的感覺也是很美好的。
