Favourite mode of transport?
Walking is the best environment friendly transport I prefer. But yes, I do agree, this is possible only to a very short distance.
I used to walk a lot in my childhood days. Because any mode of transportation, to a short distance was barely available. So the only solution was to walk. But, I was not alone, ad was always occupied with friends.
Besides an enjoyable walk with friends, we had a a lot to share and laugh about in this short journey. Believe me, everyone had a story to share. Enjoying nature, getting some fresh air in the open, getting accessed to new developments, making new friends etç...all becomes a part of this healthier version of transport.
Another beautiful memory of this wondeeful transport is when me and my friends, during college days, got lost jn a crowded lane. Actually, that was another working day of college. But on reaching, none of we 6 friends, were interested to attend the class. So we decided to skip the class. Our college is situated in one of the most busiest residential area. Here, Iam talking about 1990's.
To keep the day engaged we decided to take a walk along these busy lanes and finally ended up getting lost in the midway. With the help of public around we finally found our way back.
Probably, we walked arund 5 kms. that day. By afternoon we reached the college and attended the rest of the class. That was indeed a beautiful experience because for the first time we saw a Tall Tower, a park with a beautiful pond and lotus in it etc... being so near we were unaware of all these.
When it comes to a long journey, I prefer train to any other mode of transport. Here we get to meet lot of people from various fields.
I can never forget train journeys. The most me and my siblings enjoyed and the most we travelled during school and college days. Once the school vacation starts, the countdown for our journey to our native state by train starts.
That was a time, when me and my siblings carried books, especially comics and novels, to read in train.
Journeys should be enjoyed to the fullest. You learn and experience a lot in your journeys.
