Do you read books/magazines/novels while traveling? email this discussion to a friend?

I do carry my favorite magazines and novels with me during long journeys and i travel in trains most of the time. Though I love reading and productively spend the idle time, I end up hurting my eyes in this process, especially when the train or us is moving. So do you read books while traveling? What do recommend for people like me to who end up with a terrible head ache because of reading in a moving vehicle/transport?

Yes I do a lot of reading when i am travelling. I carry novels, comic stories, spiritual books. I love reading spiritual books and prefer to read when i am travelling alone. when travelling with family we prefer to enjoy the time.

Hai divkris!Reading in a moving train will not hurt your eyes much as in a moving bus or car.I used to travel a lot in trains some six years before and I love to read magazines and novels by that time.It is a good time pass without any disturbance.May be you are getting your head ache because of the poor lighting.otherwise reading in a train will not be harmful.Cheers!

hi divkris!^^

i would like to read while i'm traveling but i can't because i get nauseous and it makes me feel like throwing up. that's true for buses and other land vehicles. i don't get nauseous while reading inside a plane.^^

i have tried reading a pocketbook while riding a bus. i would feel nauseous and my stomach would churn only after a few pages. sometimes if i really want to read, i would read a few pages then take a break until the nausea goes away and then read again.^^;; but as much as possible i avoid doing it because it's bad for the eyes.

Most of my reading has been when I travel.
You see, I read all the time. I have got into trouble for reading in class, at work, while attending meetings, and even at church(!)
So, when I travel, it's my time - no one can feel offended that I'm not doing what I'm supposed to be doing.
I find that I pack 2 or 3 books - a classic case of being over prepared!
My advice - start wearing glasses, get a pain killler or two, practice reading while travelling - the more your eyes get used to the idea, the easier it will get....but please do not stop reading when you travel...You'd be cancelling one of the greatest pleasures of life!

I usually make long journeys by plane, train, or bus, and I always have books in my bag. Last week I went down to the USA for a party, and I had a couple of books in my bag to read on the bus. I also take my little portable CD player and some music with me to listen to, while travelling.

Hello dear, like you, I travel a lot, but by plane. This symptom of headache happens on me as well, but by drinking a cup of coffee might help you relieving the headache.
I do enjoy reading while travelling, it helps killing the time and keeping your mind busy with the knowledge. It is just perfect!
