Hi, I have noticed, like anybody, that they were now more and mroe ways to get to differents places. Buses, trains, metros, cars, planes, bikes, and all of the others are ways to go to important places on time, but what is yours to go to work? Do you use the bus because it's cheaper than your car or do you prefer anything else? Personnally, I take three buses because it's less expensive than my car and it gives me time to read or just relax, so it's not really a bad thing for me, how about you?

Hi! I take 3 buses, the first one is a minibus that brings me to the train station where a travel bus takes me to town where I take another bus that brings me to work. The first bus is 3$, the second one is 5$ and the third one is 2,75$. This means in a day, I should pay about 10,75$ for transport, twice. Since I can't afford a car, this is my only alternative, I could take the train insteat of the travel bus, but the train take twice the time to bring me where I want... And it's 7,50$. But don't worry, i'm not spending that much money on transport, in fact I have a 83$ month-pass that allows me to take all of the three buses for this very small amount... It's like 4 days of full price transport:P!!!

I take the bus, since I cannot afford a car. The bus is $1.75, but for $4 you can get an all day bus pass, which is quite a bargain if you must connect with two or more buses. A bicycle is free, but dangerous in heavy traffic, and over a long distance it can be tiring. Wish I had a car.
