What does it mean in English to be a walking noodle?

walking noodle 在英文裡是什麼意思呢？

Let's learn useful American English vocabulary as I tell my sister in law about a recent trip to Colombia.

我們要透過我和我嫂子聊最近去哥倫比亞的旅行，來學習實用的美式英文單字。

So Rachel, I didn't hear about your Columbia trip yet.

所以 Rachel，我還沒聽你說過你哥倫比亞的旅行耶。

It was so unlike anything that I've done.

You know, all of my travel lately has been with family or a lot of it.

你知道，我最近所有的旅行都是跟家人一起，或者大部分都是。

Or if I'll go somewhere with some girlfriends, we'll go to like one spot and just stay there forever and do nothing and just chat.

要不然就是跟幾個女朋友出去玩，我們會去一個地方然後就待在那裡，什麼都不做，就只是哈拉。

But I was traveling with my friend from the Netherlands and she has a much more adventurous style of travel than I do.

但我這次是跟我從荷蘭來的朋友一起旅行，她的旅行風格比我冒險多了。

這讓我完全跳脫了我的舒適圈。

There are two terms from that segment I want to go over.

那個片段中有兩個詞我想來跟大家說說。

First, I said it was so unlike anything that I've done.

首先，我說那跟我做過的事完全不一樣。

I why say unlike anything that I've done rather than different from anything I've done?

我為什麼說「跟我做過的事完全不一樣」而不是「跟我做過的事不同」呢？

首先，我說這跟我做過的事完全不一樣。

Why say unlike anything that I've done rather than different from anything I've done?

這五件事都超出了我的舒適圈。

Puck had me traveling to places and in environments that I've never experienced before.

Puck 帶著我去了我從未去過的地方，體驗了各種不同的環境。

所以我並不是一直都完全放鬆。

And I was like, okay, you know, he's gonna buy a plane ticket to come do this.

然後我就想，好吧，你知道，他會買機票來做這件事。

He flew up and we met for breakfast and, you know, it was just.

他飛上來，我們一起吃早餐，你知道，就只是。

I knew he'd been a student in my academy for many years.
