I enjoy traveling seated close to the window side of bus or other vehicles.

I do love to be seated, close to window if there is no rain out and enjoy the view outside especially if I am going to a new place. But at times the hot heat outside would be bit difficult to tolerate. At times the wind too. But sometimes I like that wind blowing on my face and the wind going through my hair. But if I am going for a travel to new places I would enjoy those views outside especially if there is lots of natural beauty. I feel that everyday is a new day and every view outside has something new to give, even if it is the same routine route.

I love to sit by the window on a plane, train and bus. Them I can enjoy looking at the passing scenery. It is something to do in the day light and after dark it gets challenging to see much out of the window other than darkness. On a plane there is often lovely views on take off and landing. I am fond of seeing areas of outstanding natural beauty and coastal views can be spectacular. When I worked at a school in Folks Stone I had to cycle to the station, take two trains and then cycle to the school. I remember with fondness seeing the countryside views and the jewel was the English Sea. France was just across the water from the White Cliffs of Dover.

Hi Sham.. I too like the window side seat specially when I am travelling to villages where we can see so much natural things and view points.. I always keep a camera while travelling to some villages and sit next to window so that I can take photos of the nature..

Camera is something that is really needed to get those live things again and again to viewed.

I absolutely am just like you!!! I love seeing the streets, the hiways, the buildings, the surroundings, the farms, the trees, the mountains - everything that I travel past through! I just always made it sure that the window seat I'm at is not where the sun is...

I like that seat too- even though me and my sister wants to be next to each other on trips, we don't because we both like the seat next to the window.But sometimes we do sit together, one of us just has to give up on that seat. Some of the disadvantages of the seat though, is the sun, rain and wind- but I love the wind sometimes,too. But the view is great...so it's worth it.

Sun, rain and wind are some those which most people like to be protected.

I love window seats, too. I find myself getting lost in the view. Most especially if it is a long trip, I just look out and forget everything. This becomes problematic when I'm on public transportation and I forget to get off at a certain point. It has happened more than once that I went past where I was supposed to go because I was too lost in my thoughts while looking out the window of a bus.

Hi. SHAMRACK. I love to look out the window when I am riding on a bus or in the car. My mind loves wandering off. I also do most of my imagining then too. It is a very peaceful feeling too.

Like you, I also prefer the window seat, whether I'm travelling by bus, by plane, by boat, by train. I want to see and feel and smell the beauty of nature first-hand.

I love seating near the window as well. The scenery and view of the places im traveling to is really nice to look at. And i should say i prefer to be seated near the window so if i ever throw up, since i usually get travel sickness, i would easily throw up in the window and not have other people seated next to me be wet and get dirty.

Hi Shamrack!. I enjoy it too. When we go some where or traveling I usually chose to be seated next to the window. Its will be good scenery when traveling because I usually can not sleep while in the road. So its will not made boring especially with company of good music. Recently I travel to hunting King fruit to others town and the view from the window really pleasing mt eyes.

i love getting a window seat! when i was younger, my brother and i would always fight over it. especially during plane rides. when we got older though, he usually gives it to me, he likes it too, but he knows i'd never let him win. i love seeing everything when i go anywhere. and even if it's just clouds on a plane ride, i still love it.

I like the window seat, too! I've been lucky enough to always have had a window seat on all of the flights I've taken, and it's great. When I'm flying, I like the window seat also because I hate having to get up every hour to let people out of my way so they can go to the bathroom. I hate standing on planes, so that's why, and also because I have an under-active bladder (LOL, tmi, but whatever!) and I can usually go without peeing, even for a long flight - like one from Sweden that I had recently. Maybe I'm crazy. Not to mention the cool sights. The sights are cooler, I think, when you're in a plane, especially if you're flying over and out of a big city at night - and the clouds are just crazy amazing to stare at. It almost gives you a new perspective on life, however cheesy that sounds.

I also prefer the window side to see the view and what's happening outside. And also I would know if I'm near to the place I'm going to. It is also fun to see and observe people and places.

Most of the people prefer to have window seat compared to aisle,the reason for this is they can enjoy the outside world ,the nature and cool breeze from the window. This habit starts form childhood,You can watch kids fight for window seat,because they want to explore the nature and the passing pole and trees from the window of the moving vehicle. For women it gives a secured feeling,because the aisle seat will be occupied by husband or friend or anybody who is traveling with them. When a couple is traveling the girl takes the window seat,I have observed it many times.My wife also likes to sit in the window accompanied by me in the aisle seat. Have fun traveling by window seat.
