You can either travel or read, but either your body or soul must be on the way. The popular saying has inspired many people to read or go sightseeing. As the summer holiday is here, are you planning a trip to relax after working so hard for a half year?

Traveling, just like reading, is a refreshing journey, a temporary retreat from the bustling world. Here are 10 books we recommend that you take on your trip.

1. Destination: US

Recommended book: On the Road, 1957, by Jack Kerouac

The book is a globally popular spiritual guide book about youth. The protagonist in the book drives across the US continent with several young people and finally reaches Mexico. After the exhausting and exciting trip, the characters in the book begin to realize the meaning of life, and start to believe in Oriental Zen Buddhism.

The book can be a good partner accompanying you to explore the United States.
