Ava opens this 25-line HSK 2 Mandarin dialogue by telling Mateo about a travel 潮流 (cháoliú, trend) she spotted in the news: more and more people are choosing to travel alone. Their conversation explores why the solo adventure travel market has exploded — with a projected value of 482 billion US dollars in 2024 — and what draws travelers toward 独立 (dúlì, independent) journeys.
