每個人都有自己喜歡的生活方式， Diego 和 Anna很幸運，因為他們有著共同喜歡的生活方式。編者認為，這種生活方式給他們帶來的最大好處就是：“擁有整個世界”不再是一句空談。諾大的世界就是他們的家，他們遊歷八方的經歷所產生的各種感受、世界觀、人生理念或許是顛覆性的，且極具震撼力。澳門導報希望把他們的經歷分享給廣大读者。（人物介紹及完整内容，請掃描本文下方二維碼進入官網閱讀）

買東西永遠不會帶給我們真正的快樂。購買和消費並不能滿足我們的靈魂和精神世界。它不會留下美好的回憶，也不會使關係更加牢固。在法國，耶誕節前，很多孩子都很興奮；他們會有很多很多玩具。十月中旬，他們就已經開始打聽平安夜的事了。他們就這樣等著，一切都像是漫長的等待。接著平安夜到了，人們打開各種各樣的禮物，可是然後呢？就沒有然後了。我們必須改變這一點，比如我們慶祝活動的深刻意義，又或者我們在這裡的原因。打開禮物能讓我們興奮幾個小時。但是，有些簡單的事情可以給我們打下一個堅實的基礎，讓我們快樂一生。

We must keep in mind something: to buy things will never make us happy. To buy and to trough away will not feed our soul, or our mind. It will not leave great memories; it will not make relationship stronger. I saw here, in France, before Christmas, so many kids excited: they were going to have many many toys. In mid-october they were already asking about Christmas eve. So, they wait, everything looks like a big and long waiting time. Then, Christmas eve arrived, people opens tone of presents, and then… what? Well, nothing. We have to change that. The deeply meaning of our celebrations. The reason we are here. Open presents make us euphoric for few hours. But there are simple things that can give a us a solid base to be happy all life long.

那麼週末時光除了以“逛街”度過，我們能給孩子們提出哪些建議呢？

So, what proposals can we make to children, on a Sunday or Saturday, instead of "going shopping"?

可以出去散散步，因為在現實生活中，沒有什麼比在大自然中度過一段時光更快樂的了。我們可以在那裡分享非常特別的時刻，這種回憶可比在超市待上一個下午難忘多了。去散步，去”冒險”，去攀岩，去河邊野餐...... 所有這些都是我們可以積極地與小朋友分享的特殊時刻。

Well, go for a walk, because there is nothing happier in reality than going to spend some time in nature with the little ones. There we canshare very special moments, which actually leave many more memories than an afternoon in a supermarket. To walk, to live “an adventure”, to climb rocks, to have a picnic near a river. … All of these are privileged moments in which we can actively share with the little ones.
