How to Prepare a Long Trip

Having a long trip on train, car, or bus can be a boring thing if you have no preparation. Lucky for you, I’ve become a “professional traveler” based on the number of trips I’ve taken, and I’m ready to share my best travel tips with you.

Prepare Your Packs and Your Ticket

On Train

Carrying heavy bags through the subway down and up the stairs at almost every station while on the road can be a real pain. So do your best to pack light, especially if you’ll only be spending a few days somewhere and not attending specific events. It always happens that we have to pack extra because we have a union or a party to attend. And that’s fine too.

I also like having the ability to watch Netflix or YouTube or surf the web after the Wi-Fi is working on board.

It’s also the perfect time to find new music or study unique playlists. Don’t break your mom’s homemade lasagna. Train rides are usually easy, but not as smooth. We know it can happen from time to time; that loud child who won’t stop screaming in the back seat, or the man who talks angrily on the phone the whole way. What I’ve discovered on this trip is that you can’t control other women and men. You can be an amazing person and expect others to follow.…
