去年十二月底，我們全家一起在京都度過了一段難忘的假期。我們陪著爸爸走遍了一座他一直想造訪的城市、一起留下了許多美好溫馨的回憶，希望未來無論在世界何方，我和家人們共度的時光都是溫暖又精彩的。
Last December, my family went on a trip to Kyoto together. I am thankful that we got to travel with my dad to a city that he has always wanted to visit — we built a lot of beautiful memories that I know I will cherish for the rest of my life. In the future, I hope the time I get to spend with my family can always be warm and amazing, no matter where we are in the world.
《如願》| “As Wished”
爸爸生日快樂！謝謝你一直以來的奮鬥和奉獻，為我們創造了更好的生活，我期許自己能傳承你的精神，自強不息。
Happy birthday, Dad! Thank you for all your efforts and dedication to building a better life for us — I hope I can be like you one day.
《萱草花》| “Orange Daylily”
親愛的媽媽，生日快樂！這首《萱草花》是電影《你好，李煥英》的主題曲。它的歌詞彷彿就是我的心聲，所以今年我想唱這首歌給妳。希望妳喜歡。
Happy birthday, Mom! “Orange Daylily” is the theme song for the movie “Hi, Mom.” The lyrics of this song are like the voice of my heart, so I wanted to sing it for you this year. I hope you like it.
《無名的人》| “A Nameless Person”
曉彤生日快樂！過去這幾年你辛苦了，在未來的道路上，希望你能創造屬於自己的奇蹟。
Happy birthday, Hsiao-Tung! You have been working so hard and doing such a great job in the past few years. In the future, I hope you can create your own miracles.
臺灣 | Taiwan
兩年了，我終於回臺灣了。這次回臺灣最後的重頭戲就是補結婚宴客——從2020年八月開始，總算徹底完成了人生大事。
After two years, I finally went back to Taiwan. One of our most important tasks during this trip was our wedding reception — now I finally feel like I have completed the process of “getting married” that started in August 2020.
倫敦 | London
離開阿姆斯特丹後，我前往倫敦出差。倫敦帶給我的情緒衝擊遠比我想像中的大很多。希望以後能有機會和家人一起來英國。雖然媽媽不在了，我還是希望有一天我們能一起在她曾經走過的路上懷念她。
After our trip to Amsterdam, I went to London for work. It was much more emotionally overwhelming than I originally thought. I hope one day I will have the opportunity to visit the UK with my family. Although my mom has left, I still wish that one day we can think of her together on the paths she once walked on.
Amsterdam | 阿姆斯特丹
In August, Steve and I visited Matthijs and Jana in Amsterdam. It took me a while to write this article because the trip still feels too good to be true.
今年八月，我和 Steve 去了阿姆斯特丹拜訪我們的朋友 Matthijs 和 Jana。我花了不少時間才寫完這篇文章，因為直到現在，我還是覺得這趟旅程恍如一場夢境、美好得令人難以置信。
《紅蜻蜓》| “Red Dragonfly”
親愛的爸爸，生日快樂！我每次聽到《紅蜻蜓》，總是會想起你。
Dear Dad, happy birthday! Every time when I hear “Red Dragonfly,” I think of you.
《人生大事》| “Lighting up the Stars”
《人生大事》是大陸一部關於殯葬師的電影，也是今年繼《你好，李煥英》之後，第二部我好好坐下來看的電影。電影中有一句很溫柔浪漫的話：「天上的每一顆星，都是愛過我們的人。」
“Lighting up the Stars” is a Chinese movie about morticians. It is also the second movie that I sat down and watched this year, after “Hi, Mom.” There is a very romantic quote from the movie, “Every star in the sky is someone who once loved us.”
《時間都去哪兒了?》| “Where Has the Time Gone?”
親愛的媽媽，又到了妳的生日，今年我還是想唱首歌給妳聽。
Dear Mom, it’s your birthday again. This year, I wanted to sing another song for you.
