The term "" does not mean traveling alone, but rather that your "journey" must be personalized. No matter how renowned or prestigious the destination, your "journey" must hold meaning and value for you! This is the philosophy of "." We never suggest following a fixed travel pattern. Rushing between enclosed, developed attractions is merely consumption. However, everyone has some things perhaps more important than traveling, and not everyone has the time to explore the "weeds" and "rocks" on the road. Therefore, we need "rangers" to pave the way for us. For Europeans, Marco Polo is their ranger for understanding China; for Emperor Wu of Han, Zhang Qian was his ranger for exploring places beyond the Western Regions of China; Xu Xiake is our role model as a ranger, dedicating his life to collecting the "weeds" and "rocks" of the road; and we—the authors of "" will become your ranger, making you your own ranger. To conclude, this is a very practical little book.
