It’s a 16 hours journey and you have already slept for 8 hours. Now all you are left with is boredom. Not all of us love to travel by train, it’s tiring, exhausting and incomparably boring. But at times we can’t help such cases where we the situation demands to jump on the boxed beside that iron engine.
For some it is an adventure, they take a great fun in looking out from the window or interacting with strangers but for some, it’s like throwing oneself in the pond of gloominess. So what to do when you can’t escape from a train journey?
Truth to be told, there are many things and we, here, have a list that will never let you get bored on a train journey. Don’t just ooze with excitement yet, read on.
1. Watch Movies.
Oh, please! There is almost none of us who doesn’t love watching movies. Now this one can really be fun. Download and store the movies of your choice, be it Hollywood, Bollywood, Tollywood or even informative documentaries. Now hop on your seat, open that laptop and start watching. You won’t even realize how time has passed and you will be thanking us for saving you from boredom.
2. Read Books
Books can be the best companion while traveling. To indulge yourself in a story is the best way to mentally transport yourself to another world and books hold the mystical power to do that. What could be better than this?
3. Play Games.
What good is your laptop, if you are not making it useful? That machine is designed to make your work easy and keep you entertained. Download your favorite game Call Of Duty, Dota or any other of your choice and start making high records.
4. Binge Watch Your Favourite Series.
Your life is already occupied with everyday hustle. Work and personal life leave you little time to watch your series. Take such two series that you have started but never followed due to lack of time and finish them while traveling. That’s time management.
5. Make A Planner.
If you are going on a vacation then you will find no better time to make plans. Estimate your budget, decide what extra you want to do, manage the time you want to spend on a specific location and other things that are necessary. Make a planner, it will simplify your trip.
6. Write Journal.
You don’t have to be a writer to pen down your thoughts. We, humans, have so much of emotional clutter inside and the worst thing is, we keep most of it buried inside our hearts. You can write about your life or how you are looking forward to this vacation or an old incident of your life that you find worth remembering. It will give you peace.
That was easy, wasn’t it? Next time pick any one or two from the list and you will never find yourself surrounded by low energy or boredom.
Happy Traveling!
