How do you spend time during long trips?  |
|
What do you do during long trips which consumes most of your time? Do you just sleep all the while? Do you eat? Do you play games with your mobile phone? I like spending most of my time during long trips just watching the scenery. While watching the scenery, I get acquainted to the peoples way of life in a particular area. How they live from day to day? What they do for a living? Is is a progressive place? Things like that.

 long road ahead |

1. salonga (2454) | 4 months ago | Oh I love watching the scenery. I seldom sleep unless I really need it because I would not want to miss the scenery. And also I read books when the trip is really too long so that while traveling I am learning.

2. bieke81 (599) | 4 months ago | I'll start with watching the scenery and after a while I'll start daydreaming. I like to daydream. I don't do it as much as I was longer, I really had a 'second' life when I was in my teens with all the daydreams. Now I don't do that anymore, but I still daydream when I'm making a trip.

richiem (1360) | 4 months ago | Yes, I also do that sometimes. Dreaming of the life that I have always wanted to. I have always wanted to have a farm with trees and vegetables. And when I see farms in the scenery, I would always daydream of living in it. I also want to have a beautiful house and always daydream of it when I see grand houses.

3. kun2349 (3630) | 4 months ago | Normally i will do people watching and scenary watch too.. It's both fun and exciting to see people's reaction to certain things and from there i will know how frequently does that particular person travel and to wat places.. lol^_^ Other than that, i will be playing my sudoku games and sleeping.. lol

richiem (1360) | 4 months ago | I also liked the sudoku game but I am not that addicted to it. I also love sleeping but most of the time I want to watch the view. Yes, watching people is great too, especially when they don't know that you are watching them. It's like watching a reality television show. Thanks for responding!

4. everlasting (10034) | 4 months ago | I hate long trips so in case when this is unavoidable, i took pictures of everything I see in the highway. When I get tired of this, i sleep with my music player on.

richiem (1360) | 4 months ago | Good for you to have your camera along always. I don't think I would do that if I would have a camera. I am not into photography. And I think I don't have the eye to see things in their essence.

5. ycanteye (456) | 4 months ago | I'm usually the one doing the driving but if I'm riding I like to look at the scenery and just kind of kick back and maybe snooze a little or listen to music.
| |
| |
|
|
richiem (1360) | 4 months ago | Listening to music while in a ride make it a less boring. And sometimes, when we are a group in the ride, we would sing the song out loud and even sometimes we would edit the lyrics and put our own names and stories on it. And this is really fun!

richiem (1360) | 4 months ago | We also play that before. But I guess that game is not any more in the mode and less people are doing it now. But the singing along the radio is still in, and we are still doing it. I guess that one is timeless. We especially like the ones which are lively and the topic is something we can relate to.

7. neildc (1877) | 4 months ago | Long distance and long time travels are different things. In long distance and you will be traveling in a plane, that is the best time to watch the scenery. Then you wonder and guess, oh, we are in this place now, and there is that place, you see? But if the travel is long, let say you will be traveling in a bus, you better sleep tight. That's kinda tiring anyway...

richiem (1360) | 4 months ago | When I traveled by plane (and I have only done it once) I haven't have the opportunity to watch the scenery because when I look at the window, it is always cloudy. Maybe it is because when we traveled it is in the rainy season. So I just watched movies and play games in the planes seat.

richiem (1360) | 4 months ago | I also am always monitoring the TV watching at which place I was above and in how many hours we will reach our destination when I rode a plane last January. It was my first time to ride a plane and I was very excited. I guess cellphones are not allowed when the plane is already in the air.

9. oliverdt (688) | 4 months ago | Hi friend, its too ashame for me to let you know what I do while I'm in a long trip. Ok first its obvious that we cannot do things at the same time so first I go to sleep then when I wokeup I tried to look around and after that I start talking to myself like crazy and having my day dreaming caree lol. I do that when I'm a kid and until now I admit I still do things like that.
| |
| |
|
|
richiem (1360) | 4 months ago | I also talk to myself sometimes, but that is when there are no people around. Usually for practicing my answer for a job interview that I would be going to. But I won't do it if there are a lot of people around. I also do the daydreaming. I enjoy it a lot.
| |
|
|
oliverdt (688) | 4 months ago | Hi friend, So atleast I know I'm not the only one of my kind talking to myself in private. If theirs people around me I just day dream I don't talk. The person beside me may get nervous and go away lol.

richiem (1360) | 4 months ago | I am not much of a traveler when I was a kid so I don't remember what I do while traveling. But now, I always look at sceneries. Maybe because I am living what I haven't experienced from my childhood.
