It takes me an hour and a half to commute to work by express train in my metropolitan area. The train only makes 5 stops.
That’s why tourists from outside the UK plan activities all over the island in a 3-day period; while many locals may never have traveled more than a few kilometres from home except to vacation in Spain, spending 3-4 hours traveling between points of interest in a day is standard practice in many parts of the world.
Yeah here in America our biggest and third biggest cities can be hit up in one short 16 hour drive. Second biggest will add a few days
Sounds horrible. I don't travel for these reasons. Stress free is what I am for, and I have never been happy when vacationing out of my province (and sometimes within, depending).
Meanwhile my partner has been to China, Japan and various other places while we've been together. She doesn't even try to get me to go with her anymore, bless her heart.
