Travel unplugged!

Two decades ago, she (a) used to plan her trips through a travel agent. She (b) didn’t use to do much research on where she (c) was going and she (d) didn’t buy a guidebook, either. She (e) wasn’t used to using the Internet back then. When she arrived at a new city she (f) would immediately look for a post office to buy stamps for her postcards. When she arrived for the first time in Paris, she (g) hadn’t planned anything in detail. Of course, she (h) had heard of the Eiffel Tower, but she enjoyed getting lost in the city and discovering new places. She met many friends in hostels because people would hang out together and swap stories. She thinks travellers (i) are too busy posting their travel experiences on their smartphones (j) to talk to each other.

Перевод:

Два десятилетия назад она обычно планировала поездки через туристическое агентство. Она не особенно изучала заранее, куда собирается ехать, и не покупала путеводитель. В то время она не привыкла пользоваться Интернетом. Приехав в новый город, она обычно сразу искала почтовое отделение, чтобы купить марки для открыток. Когда она впервые приехала в Париж, она ничего подробно не спланировала. Конечно, она слышала об Эйфелевой башне, но ей нравилось теряться в городе и открывать новые места. В хостелах она познакомилась со многими людьми: они проводили время вместе и обменивались историями. Она считает, что путешественники слишком заняты публикацией впечатлений о поездках со смартфонов, чтобы разговаривать друг с другом.
