To travel around the world is the dream of many adventurous people. But very few people can afford a global tour because hotels, food and airplane tickets are too expensive. Some people, however, have thought of some ways to realize their dreams.
Laura Cody and Tanbay Theune, a couple from Britain, decided to travel around the world. They have found a good way to pay for their trips. They look after pets for rich house owners. In exchange, they can stay in the houses for free. They have looked after horses, cows, cats, dogs and fish. In two years, the couple has been to Australia, Germany, Spain and Italy. They have stayed in big cities and small villages. The home owners are usually very generous and have given them food, wine and day trips.

One of my most embarrassing funny stories happened while I was backpacking in South America —especially during an eight-day tour from San Pedro de Atacama in Chile to Uyuni, Bolivia. The trip took me through the desert for three days to see beautiful places like hot pink lagoons (泻湖) where flamingos (火烈鸟) searched for food, a used train graveyard (墓地), and the world-famous Uyuni Salt Flats.
During the trip, I shared a car with four or five other people. At one point, I was sitting in the front seat and it was getting really hot in the car. Our driver didn’t speak English, but I spoke wonderful Spanish —at least I thought I did.
“Estoy caliente!” I said, looking right at the driver. To my surprise, instead of rolling down a window, he only looked at me in surprise.
I thought it was probably my New York accent confusing him. “Estoy caliente!” I said again, this time in what I thought was a more local-sounding accent. He looked even more confused.
Suddenly, a native Spanish speaker in the car spoke up from the back: “Um, I wonder whether you want to tell the driver you’re horny (妖媚的), right ”
Clearly, the way I was saying “I’m hot” was translated into another meaning. My face turned bright red. I realized nobody understood me. They didn’t know this —I felt hot and I needed to open the window. I had to sit in silence and try to disappear by melting in the car seat.
After the journey, I shared my story with my daughter Helen. She laughed, “Amy, I must study carefully in order not to make mistakes like yours! How embarrassing!”
