I think one of the worst things about traveling is how you are always a little bit out of control.
You can’t exactly fly the plane or drive the train that you’re traveling on. Being out of control is not something that I really like at all, and so it’s always a struggle for me to travel. I really hate how when you’re flying, the indoor air quality on the plane gets to be so terrible. I always feel like I’m breathing in germ filled recirculated air whenever the plane is in the air. The other thing I hate is how you have those three little air vents blowing straight down onto your head, too! And what makes me laugh is that they call what comes through those air vents “air conditioning.” But the so called air conditioning on planes is definitely not cooled air. The air that comes from the air vents on plane is lukewarm at best. I just always wish that I could take over the heating and cooling controls if I’m sitting in one of the seats in coach class! It’s the same way when I’m traveling by train. I guess that I would just feel better if I could just be in charge of the heating and air conditioning situation when I’m traveling. I know that I could just drive to wherever I’m going, and then I could keep the heater and the air conditioning set to whatever temperature I want. But sometimes I have to go to other cities that are very far away and so a plane or a train is sometimes my only choice.
