Walking on the Sky in Bolivia

Bolivia is one of South America's safest countries and surprisingly one of its least visited. Queen Victoria may be to blame, as she once crossed the country off a map and declared that "Bolivia does not exist." That being said, don't let her opinion keep you from visiting this beautiful country.
Many people visit Bolivia to see the Salar de Uyuni, where you can walk on the "sky." This place is actually a salt flat, which is a kind of desert covered in salt. During the rainy season, the salt flat floods─creating a surface like a mirror, which makes it hard to tell where the sky ends and the earth begins. Take a photo, and it will look like you are floating in space.
Another popular spot is Laguna Colorada. This otherworldly salt lake is only one meter deep, and its dark red color creates a jaw-dropping contrast against the deep blue sky. Although some claim the water is the blood of the gods, the blood-red color is in fact caused by red sediments and algae. This stunning natural landscape also provides the perfect background to take in the area's population of rare flamingos.

 
「療癒系天王」水豚君

玻利維亞是南美最安全的國家之一,令人驚訝地也是最少人造訪的其中一個。維多利亞女王可能難辭其咎,因為她曾在地圖上劃掉這個國家,並宣稱「玻利維亞並不存在。」儘管如此,別讓她的意見阻止你造訪這個美麗的國家。
許多人到玻利維亞是為了觀賞烏尤尼鹽沼,在那裡你可以在「天空」上行走。這個地方其實是鹽沼,是一種被鹽覆蓋的沙漠。雨季期間,鹽沼會淹水——創造出像鏡子一樣的表面,使人難以分辨天地的交界。拍張照,你就會看起來像是在太空中漂浮。
另一個熱門景點是科羅拉達湖。這個世外桃源的鹽湖只有一公尺深,在蔚藍天空的襯托下,深紅的顏色創造出令人嘆為觀止的鮮明對比。雖然有些人宣稱這裡的水是眾神的血,但血紅的顏色事實上是紅色沉積物和藻類造成的。這令人驚嘆的自然景觀也提供完美的背景來欣賞該區稀有紅鶴的族群。

virtual restaurant
虛擬餐廳

近年來,外送食物需求快速成長,因此有些餐廳開始經營起無座位、無招牌、全靠外送的「虛擬餐廳」,也稱作「雲端廚房」(cloud kitchen)或「幽靈廚房」(ghost kitchen [gost])。



give rise to n. 迅速發展、(數量)增長;繁榮
unhappiness v. 開展、發起;推出
emotional n. 副產品;衍生產品
attract attention n. (信件、包裹)投遞、運送;運送之物
sympathetic n. 外帶(作形容詞時,寫作take-out)

The recent popularity of third-party food delivery companies has given rise to virtual restaurants, which offer food for delivery or takeout only.
最近第三方食物外送公司的普及帶動虛擬餐廳的興起,這些餐廳只提供食物外送或外帶。

Despite Queen Victoria's thoughts on the matter, Bolivia not only exists but also makes for a one-of-a-kind travel experience.
儘管維多利亞女王對此事的看法是那樣,玻利維亞不僅存在,而且也創造出獨一無二的旅遊經驗。

However, few tea drinkers know that they may be getting much more than they bargained for in their morning brew.
然而,很少飲茶者知道在他們早上沖泡的茶中所得到的東西可能比預料的要多很多。

Sweet, don't forget to tag me.
太好了,別忘了標記我。

It took me five months to make it. The hardest part was attaching the leather for the cover.
它花了我五個月來製作。最難的部分就是把皮革裝在封面上。
