各国因新冠疫情颁布了旅行禁令，导致很多身处异乡的人散居在世界各地，无法回到自己的家中，“家乡的空气”一时成为热点商品。
Over in the UK, a fast-spreading new coronavirus
variant
has led to several countries around the world imposing bans and restrictions on travel to the nation, meaning a large number of residents currently abroad will not be able to return any time soon. However, relocation website My Baggage has
dreamed up
a special gift for homesick residents that's quite literally a breath of fresh air.
英国，一种快速传播的新型冠状病毒变种导致世界多个国家发布禁止及限制前往英国旅行的禁令，这意味着现在大量在国外的居民短期内将无法返回英国。然而，搬家网站“我的行李”为思乡的居民创造了一份特别的礼物，确切地说是一口新鲜的空气。
The company is currently selling bottles of "authentic" air from England, Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland to provide UK residents overseas with the scent of home. Priced at £25 (around $33,) the 500 milliliter bottle comes with a
cork
stopper
, so the recipient can keep opening it up and taking in the
aroma
whenever they need a
pick-me-up
.
目前，该公司正在出售来自英格兰、苏格兰、威尔士和北爱尔兰的“正宗”空气，让海外的英国居民可以闻到家乡的味道。这种500毫升一瓶的空气售价25英镑(约合33美元)，带有软木塞，这样购买者可以随时打开瓶塞，在需要提神的时候吸一口家乡的香气。
Aside from the four UK countries, the company can also take on special requests for any other specific UK locations, and say they've recently fulfilled an order from a Welshman who requested a sample of air from the mountainous region of Snowdonia in northwestern Wales.
除了英国这四个区域的国土，该公司还可以满足英国其他任何指定地点的特殊要求。该公司表示，他们最近满足了一名威尔士人的订单，这位顾客要求从威尔士西北部的斯诺登尼亚山区采集空气样本。
Meanwhile, special limited edition bottles featuring air taken from the London Underground or a fish and chip shop in Norfolk are also available.
The team at My Baggage, who deal with international removals for Brits who are relocating, say they were inspired to launch the bottled air range after conducting research that linked the human sense of smell with emotional memories.
与此同时，该公司还出售限量版产品，瓶内的空气取自伦敦地铁或诺福克的炸鱼薯条店。

"We wanted to help them [UK residents living abroad] reconnect with home and we know from published research that our sense of smell is very
evocative
when it comes to emotions," says a spokesperson for the company.
该公司的一名发言人表示，“我们希望帮助那些居住在海外的英国居民与家乡重新建立联系，我们从已发表的研究中知道，当涉及到情感时，我们的嗅觉很容易能产生共鸣。”
