Traveling is a commitment. Not like a relationship, but certainly a time sink. Considering all the planning you have to do beforehand, the actual travel itself, and then making your return trip happen, it can be easy to get stressed out and lose sight of why you even traveled in the first place. For all those easily stressed travelers out there, to you, I say, “No fear!” We’ve compiled some tips here to help make sure that your travel this year is smooth sailing, just like you want it to be.
Travel Overnight
Take it from me: traveling overnight is the way to go. Nothing is able to stress you out more than just whittling by the minutes and hours when you could be catching up on some valuable sleep. That’s why we suggest traveling overnight! It’s the best way to get where you need to go while feeling like nothing is happening at all! Just bring a neck pillow, maybe a blanket or a buddy you can lean on and let your eyes close. Our drivers keep it nice and smooth so that you won’t be jostled awake and you won’t lose any time at all. Win-win!
Bring Earbuds or Earplugs
Something that cannot be controlled on any bus is the human element. Our passengers are great but you never quite know who you might get on the bus or how loud they might speak. If the person behind you is having a dramatic phone call, you’re more than likely not going to want to hear that for the duration of your trip. That’s why we suggest you bring some sort of noise canceler. Earplugs are great for those who want to sleep and catch some Z’s, but earbuds are great if it’s a day trip and you just want to watch a show or listen to some tunes. Either way, it’s best to be prepared.
Take Off Your Shoes!
You know how when you get home from a long day of work, the first thing you do is take off your shoes? And you know how your entire world feels a whole lot less stressful when you do that? I suggest the same here. Don’t let travel stress you out. Get in your seat, get comfortable, and kick those bad boys off. You’re going to thank me when you do, because everything is going to feel much better if your puppies are breathing.
