Chris Richardson decided to leave his sales job in Australia to go backpacking last year.

　　He set up a website, The Aussie Nomad, to record his adventures. He says he wished he had gone on his own earlier.

　　“The feeling of having conquered something on my own is a major part of what drives me each day when I’m dealing with a difficult task.” said the 30-year-old, “I walk around with my head up because I know deep down inside that nothing is impossible if you try.”

　　One of the greatest concerns of young people who are considering traveling abroad unaccompanied is that they’ll be lonely. Yet, young people are also fascinated by loneliness. Perhaps it is because they have grown up in a world where you are always contactable, and want to know what it’s like to be cut off. Or, perhaps it’s because they believe that only by being without distractions(干扰) can you truly experience the world around you.

　　The great 19th century explorer John Muir once said: “Only by going alone in silence, without baggage, can one truly get into the heart of the wilderness. All other travel is mere dust and hotels and baggage and chatter.” 独自旅行，真正体会周围的世界，成了许多年轻人了解世界、锻炼自己的新方式。

　　()36. What’s the main idea of the passage?

　　A. Traveling with backpacks appeals only to young people.

　　B. Traveling is what everyone should do at least once in their life.
