Even those who love traveling don’t necessarily love the journey itself. As poetic as it sounds to embrace every moment, sometimes traveling from one city to another is just plain boring. If you’re traveling by train, these trips can sometimes take hours, and it’s probably best that you have something to do. Sure, there are the obvious options such as sleeping or listening to music. But here are some alternate suggestions that we believe will make your train ride not just bearable, but fun!

Audiobooks

If you love reading but don’t feel like carrying around a book while you travel, audiobooks are the answer. Just kick back and allow the narrator to take you on a journey as you enjoy the view outside. The best part? You’ll find the time passing incredibly quickly, and you might even want the ride to continue because you’re so captivated by your audiobook!

Create Something

If you’re an artist of some kind, long train rides are the perfect time to get things done. If you’re an author, songwriter, illustrator, or anything of that sort, this is the perfect time for you to dig deep and create something beautiful with minimal distractions.

Reflections

Traveling in general is a way to take a break from your “real life”. However, train rides allow you the option to take a “break from your break” and reflect on what’s going on in your mind and where you see your life going.

If you’re someone who loves traveling, we suggest opting for extra-long layovers so as to give you time to leave the airport and explore the city you’re in.

Instead of viewing layovers as a disadvantage, why not flip the script? If you’re someone who loves traveling, we suggest opting for extra-long layovers so as to give you time to leave the airport and explore the city you’re in. You might be tired from your previous flight, but here’s why we think that shouldn’t be a problem.

Change Your Mindset

We totally understand the pure exhaustion that takes place when you arrive at a random airport after your first flight. The last thing you want to do is to leave the airport and then go through security again later. But we guarantee that once you leave the airport, your enthusiasm for traveling will boost your energy levels way up. A whole new adventure awaits you!

Prepare in Advance

If you treat the layover like an extra perk in your trip, and not a thorn in your side, you’ll prepare accordingly. Once you know you’re going, you’ll look up all the fun things to do in one day, and you’ll get excited about leaving the airport during your layover.

A Free Trip

The best part about this is that you aren’t paying any extra money to visit this city. In fact, you probably paid less, because tickets with layovers are generally cheaper than direct flights. So you’re basically just getting to visit a foreign city for free!
