Yeah. What are the signs for, like, knowing how to identify something that's supposed to be this hidden camera?

是的。那么,有哪些迹象可以表明,如何识别出某个东西应该是隐藏的摄像头呢?

If you're seeing anything look out of the ordinary with the way that an alarm clock is pointed or a fire alarm that seems to have a weird blinking light. People have found cameras in such devices.

如果你看到任何看起来不寻常的东西,比如闹钟的指针方向不对劲,或者烟雾报警器似乎有奇怪的闪烁灯光。人们已经在这些设备中发现了摄像头。

There are a lot of more high-tech ways that people are saying that you can look for cameras. They're not all foolproof.

有很多更高科技的方法,人们说你可以用这些方法寻找摄像头。但这些方法并非万无一失。

For example, you can look on the Wi-Fi and see which connected devices there are. Does anything seem out of place?

例如,你可以查看Wi-Fi,看看有哪些已连接的设备。有没有什么看起来不合适的?

You know, are they dumb enough to say "camera two, bedroom"?

你知道,他们会不会蠢到说“二号摄像机,卧室”?

Like, maybe not, but if you are tech-savvy, you might be able to do some of these more high-tech ways of looking for cameras.

比如说,也许不行,但是如果你精通技术,你也许能够做一些这些更高科技的寻找摄像头的方法。

We have people who say you got to turn off the light and look for other flashing lights that you might not have noticed.

我们有人说,你得把灯关掉,寻找其他你可能没有注意到的闪光灯。

Some people promise that apps might be able to help you find them, but really, most security experts are like, do a sweep.

有些人说使用应用程序可能能够帮助你找到摄像头,但实际上,大多数安全专家都建议进行一次扫描。

If you see anything that looks weird, anything weird pointing at the bed, anything weird in your bathroom, check it out. So those were all helpful warnings.

如果你看到任何看起来奇怪的东西,任何奇怪的东西指向床,任何奇怪的东西在你的浴室里,检查一下。所以这些都是有用的警告。

So just so we leave things off on a more optimistic tone, what are you most looking forward to when it comes to your summer travels, and how can other people think about making sure that they experience joy during the sometimes stressful but still fun travel experience?

那么,让我们以更乐观的基调结束这一切吧!说到夏季旅行,您最期待的是什么?以及其他人如何考能够在有时压力很大但仍然有趣的旅行体验中体验到快乐?

I will say that I am so excited for these trips that are coming after my honeymoon.

我会说,我对蜜月之后的这些旅行感到非常兴奋。

Like I just said, I had this trip that felt like there was some kind of pressure of, "this is a very special trip that you're supposed to have such an amazing time after your wedding, and there's so much joy to be had" and things went wrong.

就像我刚才说的,我这次旅行感觉有一种压力,“这是一次非常特别的旅行,你应该在婚礼后度过一段非常美妙的时光,会有很多快乐”,但事情出了差错。

And there's a meat market! There's a meat market! There's smell and the flies.

这里有个肉市场!这里有个肉市场!这里有气味和苍蝇。

There are pork hooves right on my way into my door.

在我进门的路上,有猪蹄。

And I am excited about these trips that aren't "the best trip of my life coming up."

我对这些旅行感到兴奋,它们并不是“即将到来的一生中最棒的旅行”。

I think something that we miss in our summer vacation plans and any of our travel plans, we have these high expectations. We have to make it Instagram-worthy.

我认为,我们在暑假计划和任何旅行计划中都会错过一些东西,我们对这些东西抱有很高的期望。我们必须让它在 Instagram 上引人注目。

We have to make it worth this vacation time we're taking.

我们得让我们正在度过的这个假期变得有价值。

And really, vacation is such a blessing of let's just relax, get away from work, go to another beautiful place.

而且说真的,假期是一种恩赐,让我们放松身心,摆脱工作,去到另一个美丽的地方。

I'm going to go to my family's cabin that my great-grandpa built.

我要去我曾祖父建造的家族小屋。

It's nothing fancy, but it's just so nice to go and unwind, and anything that you can do to take time and be with family, like, it sounds very cheesy, but I'm just excited to have the bliss of not working and being in a beautiful place.

这没什么特别的,但就是很高兴能去放松一下,任何你能做的事情,只要能抽出时间和家人在一起,听起来都很俗气,但我很高兴能享受不工作和身处美丽地方的幸福。

And I think, connected with that, is thinking about your phone and not being on your phone sometimes.

我认为,与之相关的是,有时要考虑一下你的手机,不要一直玩手机。

I went to Turkey at the beginning of this year, which was so cool, and for a full 48 hours I just turned my phone completely off and I let people in my life know, like, where I would staying and if they needed to contact me, like, there was a person at a desk who could come to my room and give me a message.

今年年初我去了土耳其,那里非常酷,整整48个小时,我完全关掉了手机,让我生活中的人知道我会住在哪里,如果他们需要联系我,就像有一个人在前台,可以到我的房间给我留言。

But I think, like, using travel as an opportunity to really think about what it means to truly unplug and just -- and not spend your time in this expensive other country being on Instagram, looking at other people's travels is the way to go.

但是我认为,将旅行作为一个机会,真正思考一下真正拔掉插头意味着什么,而不是在这个昂贵的其他国家花时间在Instagram上,看着别人的旅行,这才是正确的做法。

A million percent. And I think that goes back to having this pressure of you have to have a perfect vacation.

完全正确。我认为这又回到了你必须拥有一个完美假期的压力上。

You have to go to the best places that were recommended.

你得去那些被推荐的最好的地方。

You have to still be tethered to your phone, looking for the right thing to do.

你仍然需要被束缚在手机上,寻找正确的事情去做。

If you can really just unwind, talk to local people wherever you are and get a restaurant recommendation instead, that is going to be its own adventure, a nice thing. So yeah, put the phone away. That's a great tip.

如果你真的可以放松下来,无论你在哪里,都可以和当地人交谈,然后得到一个餐厅推荐,这将是一次属于你自己的冒险,一件美好的事情。所以,是的,把手机收起来。这是一个很好的建议。

Natalie, thank you so much for all of this. Thank you.
