旅行的意義(後疫情版)
踏入後疫情的階段,大部分國家都已重新開放,而旅客們為了「補償」這兩、三年的旅遊空白,都會出現報復式旅遊的現象。旅遊業的復甦無疑會帶來久違的經濟效益,但這些報復式旅遊亦會影響到當地民生及生態環境。

對於後疫情的旅行,我們應該如何自處?我們對旅遊的態度或旅行形式,與疫情前相比,會有改變嗎?我們面對外國旅客重新訪港又適應嗎?或許我們需要重新編寫「旅行的意義」?

「旅行的意義(後疫情版)」以真人圖書館形式,由旅遊經驗豐富的林輝先生及薯伯伯(Pazu)以小組形式與同學交流,分享他們的看法。

In the post-pandemic travel era, most countries have already fully re-opened to visitors from around the world, and ‘revenge travel’ is surging to compensate for the lost travel years. Tourism rebound could undoubtedly drive economic recovery, yet could the ‘revenge travel’ phenomenon be another environmental disaster?

How should we deal with post-pandemic travel anxiety? Have our travel attitudes and behaviour changed compared to the pre-pandemic era? Apart from preparing to be tourists again, are we prepared for the incoming visitors to Hong Kong? Maybe it’s time for us to redefine the word ‘travel’?

Of human library style, Post-Quarantine Travelogues invites travel writers and enthusiasts Fred Lam and Pazu Kong to share their stories with you.
