I like land journeys, but they tend to be long. I also like boat rides, but they make me palpitate. I like trains and MRTs, but there are few of those in my archipelago. So among all of these choices, I would rather choose the plane. I usually travel by air even though it's more expensive than the rest of the choices. I guess it's better since it takes less of my time...^^ How about you?

Hi! i prefer train journey a lot because it saves time and also gives lots of pleasure and entertainment since it frees our minds from hassles. Trains are the easiest and the cheaper ways to travel and are much more comfortable then buses. It has many number of seats also where many people can get place to sit. We can get ourselves out from the traffic jams too by travelling by a train. Well, sometimes I too prefer journey by flight too, but when i feel that its very very long distance and i need to reach soon, or sometimes when i no more want to wait for hours. else train is the best means of transport for me.

I like land journeys because I can see a lot of scenery. Air trips are quick and they can reach far away destinations. My favorite way to travel is by train because by day I can enjoy looking out of the window and at night time I can sleep in a comfortable compartment. My second favorite way to travel is by bus but only in the day. At night time traveling by bus is uncomfortable. Some countries don't have trains so I travel around by bus. In rough weather I can get sea sick when I travel by ferry. I fly to keep costs low or to reach far away destinations. Going from the UK to New Zealand by plane is the most practical way to go there. I like to stop over in desirable locations like the South Pacific Islands. Airline seats don't have much leg room but planes are speedy and go all over the world.

Well... It depends on where I want to go. I usually take the plane to go to my hometown, I'd rather have it because it would take 10hrs of land journey. And there are no good train transportation here in my place. Even I know I would spend more money for it, I know I would save time and I can do anything else than have to spen my time in the road.
I don't like being in the road, and especially by car. In the night there would be many danger in along the way. I heard many stories about that. The security in our country is really low, I don't want to risk myself to save the money but endanger my own life.
