The pain of long-distance journey.

When it comes to packing, I would be quite efficient and organized. I would only pack the things I would love to take along, such as clothes, toiletries, shoes, etc. I would prefer something a little so that the journey won't be stressful for me and make transportation easier.

In terms of travel, I would probably prefer long-distance journeys.
About the long-distance journey preference and experience. When someone is travelling on a long-distance journey, the things they will encounter are:
-When your car breaks down, you will have to wait for the mechanic to come and fix it.

-If there is no shield, someone will have to stay while the mechanic works on your car, and people will have to wait in the sun, especially if it is hot.


Also, when one is travelling and their phone battery is down, the person will be bored because there's no phone to press, especially if the person does not know anybody inside the car.

Another one is when you travel and you reach a town, your phone network will be gone, especially if when one doing something important on his or her phone. The person will be frustrated.

I can still remember when my brother and I were travelling to our hometown from Kogi State to Kwara State. I was enjoying the journey because I love anything long-distance, so halfway through our journey, my body started paining me, and my bum began to hurt me. I was frustrated because the driver who was driving us was just entering from one pothole to another. Even my leg started hurting me. I started to complain that the journey was too long and that when are we going to reach our destination?


When travelling long-distance, someone will encounter police or soldiers, and the funniest part is when you are in a hurry and the soldiers or police ask you to park your car, they would delay you for some minutes or hours. This used to frustrate me.

I can still remember when we were travelling. We got to a town, and the soldiers asked our driver to park. He said he saw some Yahoo boys inside our car, so they called them out, and the soldiers were talking to them. The soldiers delayed us for almost 45 minutes, and even people started to complain that they were in a hurry and that the place they were still going was far too, but later the soldiers released them.

I hate it when I am travelling, especially if there's a hold-up or go-slow, it used to frustrate me because the hold-up or go-slow would surely make someone's journey too slow.
Though some people prefer short journeys, I don't know why some people prefer the short journey. To me, if you are travelling on a short journey, you won't have the privilege of seeing something the way you will on long-distance journeys because someone will encounter so many things on the way when they are travelling long-distance journey.

I was a lover of long distance traveling but if we start meeting challenges like this on the road, it usually make the journey very tiring especially when you have to stop at each check point

That I don’t even like.
