downshifter
noun [ C ] uk/?da?n.??f.t?r/ us/?da?n.??f.t?/
（放弃难度大﹑高薪工作）选择做赚钱较少但有更多工余时间和满足感的工作的人，放慢生活节奏的人，慢活族
someone who leaves a job that is well paid and difficult in order to do something that gives them more time and satisfaction but less money
He's no ordinary downshifter trading high earnings for rural tranquillity. 他根本不是个慢活族，不会为享受恬静的乡村生活而放弃高收入的工作。
The true downshifter - whether he becomes a plumber, a potter, or unspecified "freelance consultant" - does not want any job that takes him back to a 70-hour week. 真正放慢生活节奏的人，不管是改行成了水管工、制陶工，还是无定职的“自由咨询人”，都不想再干每周七十小时的工作。
