　Got a long weekend coming up but can't decide where to go?

　　A new travel agency is offering to do that for you, but there's a twist. You won't know where you're going until you reach the airport.

　　一家新的旅行社可以帮你做这个决定，不过还有个新创意，那就是到机场了你才能知道要去哪儿。

　　Pack Up + Go builds surprise itineraries spanning the U.S. and plans your trip based on a survey you fill out.

　　“说走就走”这个旅行项目会给你一个惊喜的美国国内行程，它会基于你填的调查表为你做行程计划。

　　The concept was founded by Pennsylvania-based Lillian Rafson when she was only 23 and targets people who 'love travelling but loathe planning'.

　　Clients are first asked to fill out a survey detailing their departure date and holiday preferences.

　　问题中包括你去过的地方，你只是想出去走走还是要体验文化、抑或是为了放松。旅行者也会被问及他们的爱好、饮食限制和身体状况。

　　In the week running up to the trip, Pack Up + Go sends a parcel containing a weather forecast, packing suggestions, and transport instructions. It also contains an envelope that mustn't be opened until the client has reached their final destination.

　　旅行前一周，“说走就走”会发给你一个邮包，包含一份天气预报、打包建议和交通指南。还有一个信封必须等客户到目的地才能打开。

　　According to their website, Pack + Go only send clients to 'mid-sized American cities', which are no more than four hours away from home.
