Many families in Guangxi live in dangerous, dilapidated houses made of mud-brick walls. The conditions of ventilation and sanitary systems are extremely primitive while the houses are also vulnerable against the rainstorm and floods that regularly strike this area. During your trip, you can witness the tangible rewards of your effort in changing lives. Most importantly, you will help build not just a house, but also a home with stability, dignity and hope for a brighter future. Let’s make a pledge here. As a young and energetic generation with enthusiasm and compassion, we are leaders of today, and will contribute our efforts to a better and more harmonious world. I wish you a safe and fruitful time in Guangxi, making our dream of “a world where everyone has a decent place to live” come true. Thank you! Michael Chen Program Lead, Habitat for Humanity China 1.Overview of Yangshuo Yangshuo is a well-known town in the southern part of Guilin, about one hour from Guilin city. Surrounded by amazing rock formations and bordered on one side by the Li River, it is easily accessible by bus or boat from nearby Guilin. Over the years, Yangshuo has been developed into a popular tourist destination with a relaxed friendly atmosphere, similar to areas in South East Asia. However, the beauty about Yangshuo is that within a few minutes you can find yourself in a rural village watching water buffalo take a midday bath and farmers drying their produce on the ground without a single tourist in sight.

  • How Translators Negotiate the Foreign in Travel and Tourism. An
    Homeward Bound: How Translators Negotiate the Foreign in Travel and Tourism. An English-Russian Case Study. Submitted by Maria Selezneva to the University of Exeter as a thesis for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Modern Languages In October 2018 This thesis is available for Library use on the understanding that it is copyright material and that no quotation from the thesis may be published without proper acknowledgement. I certify that all material in this thesis which is not my own work has been identified and that no material has previously been submitted and approved for the award of a degree by this or any other University. Signature: ………………………………………………………….. 1 Abstract My research addresses intercultural communication in the field of travel and the industry of tourism and the challenges faced by translators between cultures. In my thesis I explore selected texts about foreign travel in English and in Russian and their Russian and English translations (respectively) in order to show the importance of differentiating between the ways in which translators, travellers and tourists represent and contrast foreign and domestic elements. In Chapters One and Two, I explore target-oriented and source-oriented translations. My analysis suggests that target-oriented translation can be creatively combined with source-oriented translation, both on a semantic level, by translators of travel texts and on a narrative level, by those travellers who write accounts of their experiences. Thus translators of travel literature create a holistic image of a foreign culture using analogies familiar to readers of the target language. My comparisons of English-language The Lonely Planet and Rough Guides travel guides to China, Finland and Russia with their Russian translations suggest that texts targeted at different audiences can be significantly divergent in terms of content.
