Traveling

What kind of travelers have you met on your bus trips, train, boat rides or plane flight? Do you like them or are you wary of them? Some people they think travelling alone is an interesting proposition, but for some it is a traumatic experience turning into a nightmare.

On a short bus trips, you just want to get on and stop after a few bus stops, the people you meet are the daily passengers who are in the hurry and rush to get to work or back home. They may be a bother, but they also may be useful sometimes, such as helping you to carry a bag or giving you a place to sit.

However, on a long bus journey or trip, it could be a different situation. Sometimes you sit beside a person who takes up your 50% seat place, and sometimes you feel uncomfortable on a long journey because you just have to bear with a people with a foul smell and armpit odour, proving that a lot of deodorant on the tv aren’t that reliable for 24 hours. I remember one time, when I was a rebellious teen around 14 to 15 years old. When I was on the bus trip going to Singapore, unlucky me was sitting beside a teen that sweated all the time. I gave up and I chose standing beside the bus driver for 5 hours! Pity me, but that was a better idea.

Coming to train rides, on day trips, a train journey is quite boring and the seats are too limited. I never had a chance to sit, unfortunately was fated to stand with an abundance of people, surely you have to keep your belongings safely or else you might cry at the end of the day.

Taxis can be a quick way to get to your destination. However, the picky taxi driver who refuses to use the meter or charges a double or triple amount from the normal prices. That is absurd and can spoil your day. On a long distance trips, if you’re sandwiched between two passengers in the rear seat, rest assured you are not going to have a comfortable journey.

Whatever mode of transport, just bear the discomforts and the noisy people. The suffering will end. When you reach your destination, you can have a comfortable rest at your home.

Too many little errors, i.e 'a long distance trips.' A is singular, trips is plural.
