Things to do while travelling long distance by bus

I enjoy traveling by bus while my wife is not traveling with me (vomits every time we travel in a bus). I really love traveling and I have really traveled long distances by bus. For instance I once traveled from Hyderabad to Delhi (changed bus at Nagpur, Bhopal, Allahabad). That was tiring but I enjoyed the journey.

I do not appreciate long journey in bus. If it is in train, it will be enjoyable for me. Bus journey makes us tired. Glad to know your tips.

I enjoy the scenery most of the time, take pictures of what I may want to paint later, bottled water is cool and some snacks.

love long bus ride? i love it. I usually think what i would be deciding on. sometimes, i just take a long bus ride if I have to make a decision on a sensitive issue.

Mine is having plenty of cold drinks

I took a bus journey across Canada, from Halifax to Vancouver. I get motion sickness so I can't read or play video games on my phone in a moving vehicle. I also can't sleep on a crowded bus so I just hopped off the bus in various cities across the country and got a hotel for a couple of days to rest up. It took me 14 days to get to Vancouver, but I was able to tour some of the cities on my way there.

When I travel on a bus I tend to get travel sick if I read a book or look at a magazine. Therefore in the daytime the best thing for me to do is look out of the window at the scenery the bus is passing. I sometimes enjoy listening to music on a long distance bus journey. In the night time I will sleep in an upright seat. Due to feeling travel sick on long distance buses I prefer to go by train. We had two long train journeys crossing India which were very interesting. Yes, we did something similar like you for keeping fresh. Hair can get messy on a long journey so that is a good idea to bring along a hair brush.

Ever since I was a kid, the thing I often do on my long trip is to sleep.

When we've toured, we bought snacks and water at stops. Half the time I'm asleep. LOL! I also keep a mini Evian in my bag for a spritz.

I would think of something - but the longest I have spent on a bus or train journey is 2 hours at the most.

Sleep, I sleep most of the journey

I usually splash a fresh scent cologne on my body whenever I take a long bus ride. It helps though for me to feel fresh. =)

I too keep a bottle of water and some snacks..I do enjoy the scenery while travelling in bus..

Yes I always bring hair brush and water as well.. but every time I travel I always sleep..

If it is within 8 hours, it is fine. At least I can fall asleep on the way. If it is a longer journey, I prefer to other ways, such as train or plane.

Sounds fun, sleep. Unless pretty girl sleep.

Good tips.

I loke to travel by bus. I love seeing the views
