How to make money by cycling? It is said that hourly and daily jobs are hard to find now. How to solve these problems?

It was originally posted in the commentary of the daily newspaper, saying that it was more than 1000 words. After writing it, I found it posted here.

In fact, it really doesn't cost much to travel with experience. For me with a tent, transportation is the biggest expense. I won't tell you how to save money, as long as you are not lazy, walk more and get up early. Of course, some people will say, isn't it tiring to go out and always think about how to save money? In fact, when experience becomes a habit, there is no need to calculate anything. For example, if you are tired of putting up a tent, you must stay in a youth hostel or inn in the city. Where to go for Ctrip Baidu is not the lowest price. Daily renting and young people looking for jobs are the lowest prices. Anyway, you can take a bath to recharge, and even better, you can cook. Spring Airlines has many low-cost air tickets ranging from 9 to 99- 199-299. For example, the last time we flew from Shijiazhuang to Chongqing, we added 99 to build those ***300, which I think is still very cost-effective. As for cycling, it's really not suitable for travelers, extreme athletes and people with a lot of time, and it's extremely economical, tiring, eating too much, only 100 km a day, and I can't see all the scenic spots. Finally, I feel sick. The cyclist I met around Hainan Island got on the running all the way on the roundabout expressway (spray-free, Hainan Expressway is free, and bicycles can be stolen). I found it boring to walk around like that, so I decided to run away by myself. All the way from the coast to Nanjing, I feel that the eastern coast is really beautiful, but the scenery is similar. One day I went to Zhejiang, there were more than N ancient towns, and there were many local ancient towns in Zhouzhuang Wuzhen. The road from Taihu Lake Basin to Shanghai is really beautiful. Su He is always good, but unfortunately they are already weak. Finally, he was frozen into a dog in Nanjing, sold his car and drove a train. It feels so cool! Interest gradually returned and finally settled in Xinjiang. When I think of this journey, the most regrettable thing is that riding in Fujian, Zhejiang and Hujiang is slow, but it is very tiring. The most comfortable places are Xinjiang, Sichuan, Ningxia and Gansu. The food is smooth and the train is cheap. There is also the relationship between work and business trip. When you have the value of travel orientation, you will find a way ... For example, I volunteered in Lijiang Inn, volunteered in Xinjiang for western planning, studied Lamian Noodles in Lanzhou, and studied for a master's degree in Guangzhou Normal University for three months. A friend who works as a mechanical assistant said that the company likes travelers with professional skills and has short working hours. Generally, the contract stipulates several months or half a year, and travelers try their best to be energetic because of temporary work. I'm not afraid of offending people. I have many good new ideas. I have seen people selling postcards of their own scenery photos. In fact, everyone is worried about how to deal with sustainable travel. You left half your job, and after a few years, your qualifications are not as good as others. Actually, I'm worried, too But since I have chosen the value of traveling for a living, I still have to look forward to being better than others' full-time jobs. How do you live? In fact, I made too many messy phone calls. What I want to say is that if we don't have a heart that embraces all kinds of values, then we can't talk about traveling to change ourselves. You can only change your wallet when traveling. If I have money in the future, I will certainly try to drive, take a boat and fly. If I continue to have no money, I just want to say that even if I lose my job, even if I measure it with my feet, I can know that the world is very big, and I will not regret my mediocrity and be ashamed of wasting my life …

———————————————

The above is the first answer, and then the debate is quite big, so let's talk about poor travel, travel and responsibility.

I won't elaborate, just tell my own story.

I found the so-called responsibility problem after taking time off to travel at school. I take care of my parents, afraid of getting sick, worrying about accidents at home and giving them grandchildren.

But I've been resisting myself. Why are these important? Where is my own life? These are all strange circles that I can't get around.

It was not until later that I gradually realized that it was not bad for the system and fate. This is your responsibility, and you must bear it.

Our home is not a remote mountainous area, but in the suburbs of a prefecture-level city, within the Third Ring Road. But parents' income is extremely average, and all of it is used to pay off debts. The house built 20 years ago has a debt of 80 thousand. Go to school for my sister and me. I graduated in 2009, and my sister graduated from 12.

It took them 20 years. There must be someone who can't think of figuring out how much my parents earn, how much we spend, and why they only do these two things for 20 years.

My mother worked as a 15 class teacher, and rose to 200 yuan a month when she left in 2003.

My dad's lathe worker, because it is for relatives, usually gives it casually, not more than 20 thousand. It is still ...

There are things you can't imagine. When I was studying in Luoyang in 2009, a 40-year-old teacher said that we only had 200 yuan a month for living expenses. You are so excellent now that you don't know how to cherish your life. He just doesn't know my living expenses per semester 1000, which is less than 200 a month on average. I am poor, but I have to travel every holiday. In 2005, I worked in Yonghe Soymilk during the winter vacation. In 2007, I went to Beijing to participate in a group performance. In 2007, I went to Zhengzhou construction site. In 2008, I went to Lijiang to be an inn volunteer. In 2009, I went to Foshan to sell insurance. In 2009, I graduated and went to Xinjiang. I tried to make money in college, selling books, quilts, train tickets and telephone cards, but I didn't have business genes, and I was lazy and playful, so I couldn't make money. I didn't work much at school, and my main source of livelihood was to sell a drink for a long time. One day in 50 yuan on the weekend, shopping in 80 yuan all night, two days 180. For me, this is a huge sum of money. After Lijiang came back, he helped the inn continue to do network promotion. In fact, he writes soft articles, makes up stories, and tells stories about affairs, 300 yuan a month, one day 10.

Before graduation, I rented a house in a village in Luoyang for 60 yuan a month. I study e-commerce, but I work in a nearby travel agency, and I pay 500 yuan a month just because I like traveling. At the same time of graduation, I signed up as a volunteer for the Western Plan and went to Xinjiang. One year after graduation, our family paid off the old debts. Two years after graduation, I paid off the student loan and got the diploma.

Where is the balance point? On the one hand, the living expenses are not enough, and they also travel everywhere; On the one hand, you have old family debts, and you don't have a diploma. Do you volunteer without working first?

I have to admit that I am still not a very profitable person until today. I am indecisive and romantic. My family can't stand any changes. Fortunately, nothing has changed.

It's too wordy ... hurry up ...

The income of volunteers is 680 yuan, 300 yuan, and 200 yuan. I saved more than 8,800 yuan in the consumption situation in Xinjiang similar to that in Shenzhen. Then I entered a state-owned enterprise, went to Hubei for training for one year, and returned to Xinjiang one year later. After working in the Gobi Desert for three months, I rented a catering stall in the enterprise to be a Lamian Noodles (nobody was optimistic, so I only spent more than 20,000 yuan, including equipment), and the business was ok. Gobi desert can't recruit people, cousins, classmates and friends who love to travel most of the time. Earned a little money and began to realize my dreams now and when I was a child. I bought roller skates, guitars and even a basketball and bully learning machine. The biggest parts are iphone and laptop. With so many things at my fingertips, even if I don't play, I will look super happy and laugh.

I bought another house near my home and became a "successful person" at home.

A year later, the shop was hacked by others … I was displaced again …

I went to Tibet, Qinghai, Gansu and Shaanxi. Because I made three trips before and after being a master of Lamian Noodles, I went to Lanzhou to study Lamian Noodles after I finished.

Then I went to Guangxi and opened a branch with my boss in Lanzhou. I only paid 3000 yuan in three months, went to Anhui to help my friends for half a year, and paid 1000 for half a year. Constantly cheated, but also very helpless. The advantage is that I have learned Lamian Noodles, and I have also played it in Guangxi, Hunan and Anhui. Then go to Guangzhou University to do a master's degree for three months, with a monthly salary of 4,000 yuan. Then I realized that I had won another store in Xinjiang.

Start cycling before returning to Xinjiang. After seven days and six nights in Hong Kong, I set up a tent in Pui O camp. I don't buy luxury goods, I only look at what I am interested in. Museums are great, and universities are great. The trip cost 1000 Hong Kong dollars, equivalent to 800 yuan RMB.

Then, like my last answer, I kept changing the mode of travel, cycling, plane, train, walking and hitchhiking, and returned to Xinjiang from Guangzhou for three months.

I tried to make money in the middle, work for a short time, set up stalls and sing songs, all of which went away. I feel that it is more practical to play after making money.

Because I lost my phone halfway and had to honor my family during the Spring Festival, this trip just spent all my income this year after I left Xinjiang.

At present, we are preparing for a new store, using the savings of the previous store (buying funds and making small profits). Mom, dad, sister and brother-in-law all came to help. I am not married.

To sum up, eight years later, we still need five provinces to travel around China. I don't know when I can finish the remaining five provinces when I open the store this time.

There are several purposes about traveling.

The first is not to waste travel expenses, and to play everywhere at work.

Second, don't waste your journey back, you can play all the way back to a place.

Third, don't travel for the sake of travel, but work for the sake of work. These are complementary.

In Guangzhou, every Saturday was a rest day for three months. On that day every week, I visited Guangzhou, a city of the Republic of China, and I loved it. Even when you are very tired, it is very tiring to take the subway all the way to Nansha or Foshan and watch the subway get off the ground and become a light rail.

In Guangxi, there is no rest day. After work in the evening, I go to see the night scene, go to the overpass to see the guys who set up stalls and the beautiful women who come and go bargaining. When I am tired, I sit on the steps of Hangyang Square, listening to a wandering singer singing and asking for guitar tips.

In Anhui, there is no rich city life, because it is in the countryside. Go swimming in the fish pond after noon every day, go to the Woods to listen and catch cicadas, get bitten by mosquitoes and mix leaves and stems with children. At 9 o'clock in the evening, there was no one in the town. I climbed to the top of the bungalow to enjoy the cool, watched the stars move, watched how the Milky Way rose little by little, and watched the most famous meteor shower in 20 13. Occasionally heavy rain, lightning flying all over the sky, thunder, lamenting the magic of nature.

……

Fourth, don't be bound by responsibility. As long as you have a good idea and follow the goal, you will have a chance. Really not ... In your youth, your parents are at least not very old, so you can take care of yourself. You can't use them as an excuse that you dare not go or rush, which is true for travel, life and work.

Of course, there are exceptions to everything, natural disasters and man-made disasters. Don't ignore the specific situation. If you should take care of it, you should take it with you.

As for the future, I think parents will take care of the concept of raising children to prevent old age, but my children should be independent from childhood and have their own lives. I will try my best to live a good life for the rest of my life and not be a burden to him, but he can't use me as an excuse not to let go.

He must be himself.
