Strangers who give me a ride, sometimes I have to walk because I can't get a ride.

Wait, so you don't use a paid service? More like hitchhiking?
Yep, I like doing it. But not with personal vehicles, I prefer to choose a vehicle for transporting goods, such as a vegetable truck, chicken truck, or even a construction material truck. Biggrin

Good thinking.

It's certainly a lot safer that way.

That makes sense. I wonder if the drivers enjoy the company too, as they're often on boring, long work journeys, you know?

They most certainly enjoy the company.

Many drivers at my work who travel Interstate, continue to ask me to be a passenger In their semi-trailer. It's a 20 hour journey (one way) so obviously, I kindly refuse.

20 hours!? I really don't envy the long journeys. Although, I think I'd take a driving journey over the high stress I get in my current job.

Yes It's certainly a long journey.

Of course, there are many truck stops (eating at diners and a couple of drinks at the pub etc), but It's still quite a long trip.

I definitely agree that driving with good company, helps alleviate stress and anxiety.

I've done many 8 hour trips, and It significantly reduced my tension.

Best way to travel for me would be to fly by plane - it's quick, easy and these days quite affordable.

If I have to commute in town to outside I am pretty much always choosing train or car.

Now it is much safer to [link redacted] for short distances with connections because the plane is not the most relevant mode of transport. I often travel by bus using the best deals in the less popular season. It saves me money on tickets and allows me to see the beauty of our world in places I've never been. Do you agree that it is necessary?

As of recent, I've been travelling by bus and really enjoy the ride.

Nothing beats kicking back, while someone else behind the wheel takes you to your destination.
