When you are taking up long journey, do you carry food and water with you?

Hi Buchi, In journeys it is always safe to carry food and water with us. But it depends on the season too if it in summer it is not wise to carry food for long journeys. Our long journey is from Delhi to Kerala and usually we are carrying food for two days and third day we will get food from outside. In case of water we will take it with us as much as we can then there is no option but to get it from outside. I have observed that many people are carrying their own food with them especially if they are going with family.

hi Buchi_bulla, daily i am carrying my food to my work/shop,some times i will take food at cafe itself,regarding water i am not carrying it i will take them from cafe or from tap ,nothing will be happen ,i believe fate mostly so ,if it is written in our fate we cannot escape,have a nice day

Hi, Buchi_bulla. I will probably buy me some food when I am out and about. That is what I will usually do when I am traveling a long journey.

hehe very nice topic you know i love to eat a lot and you remembered of the days when we used to go to our religious place which is far away from our city and we have to catch train and it was about 6 hr away from our home and mom used to carry food for us and we enjoy the meal in the train , oh god it was a real fun , u know i miss those days , really they are unforgettable , and yeah we carry food when we go out for a long distance travel and enjoy having meal in train.

When going out for a long journey, of course i'd like to carry food and water with me. The more the better, but the weight hv to be not so heavy.. I like eat every kinds of delicious food, espaciall spicy food. How about you all? What kind of food do you like ?

Of course, when I go out for a long journey, i'd like to carry a lot of food with me, especially by train together with two or three friends :) I like spicy food a lot. how about you? my friends... do you like spicy foods like me ?

Any long journeys I undertake are either by car or plane, but as we know taking food on planes is now out of the question. When travelling by car I will take a flask of coffee, a bag of crisps, a cereal bar and sometimes a bag of sweets or mints. I never take sandwiches, why I don't know as it would be just as easy. I do not buy from service stations as here in the UK the prices are so expensive it's a joke. A sandwich that you can buy ready made in a shop for a maxium of £2, so nothing fancy, will cost about £4.50. No way am I going to pay that.

Personally, it depends on where I'm going and what I plan to do that determines whether or not I take with me any food or drink. If I don't really know where I'm going or what I plan to do, or what I am doing involves fairly long-distance journeys, I will definitely be sure to pack a few snacks such as crips, chocolate bars and fruit as well as a large bottle of water in case I feel like the, during a journey. Also, I will take all of the above if I am short of money, because food and drink nowadays can be so ridiculously expensive, and sometimes, i just haven't got the money to waste. However, if I'm going somewhere with my friends or family where I know food or snacks will be involved at some point during the day (such as the cinema or going for a meal out) I won't bother taking anything with me except for maybe some money to buy stuff whilst I'm out (although again, this really does depend on whether or not I have the money to do such a thing, as being a student, food budgets can be pretty tight sometimes).

I do carry water especially during long journey. And especially during extraneous activities. I also do carry water even during work or school especially when the weather is so hot. But I don't overdrink water because I urinate a lot.

Hi Aunty, Even we also carry food and water when are going out for a long journey with us. In our home my nice and nephews they dont have outside so because of them we carry food, they are very allergic to outside food. They dont even have food in emergency situations also. in that case they land up only having fruits. Thanks for your discussion. Have a great day.

if you go by plain then you can't take with yourself in airplain salon water of food. I meant flight travels.

When I am taking a long journey I love to take food and water with me cause well I love to drink water constantly otherwise i get a lovely bladder infection haha. I like to make my own sandwhichs and other snacks such as trail mix or something... I also hate eating out unless its fresh food like subway and not like mcdonalds or even sonic

well good question. but when i go for a long journey i used to book my tickets in flight or good trains. and mostly i dont carry food with me. but i do carry water cause mostly the disease will be caused through water. so its very safe to take water with us.. which is essential too. i buy food out which means il take lighter stuff.

Since you have problems with digestion, it is really advisable for you to take those stuff along. However, some people, those who don't really like to bring a lot of stuff when traveling, prefer to just buy food and water on their journey. On the other hand, there are those people too who would love to bring food and water for safety reasons. It really depends on the person traveling. If the budget is tight, then taking food with you is a good option. If you're a light traveler, then you could just buy food and water elsewhere.

When I go on a long journey I like to take food to eat and water to drink. The hotter the weather the more water I tend to bring along. I love to travel by train and I quite like travel by bus. I feel sea sick when I am on a boat so I eat and drink before the journey. When I go by plane security don't allow water bottles because of their rules about liquids. Buying food and drinks can be expensive like at airports.

In most cases, I do not bring any food. I always travel light. So I prefer to eat on the stop over areas of long travels. I also do this since I love food and traveling will give me an idea about different delicacies on the place that I am going. Usually before I travel, I always inquire about things including food and other things that I find useful.

Hi, It is always better to prepare and carry your home made food, water when you are taking up long journey in a train. It is not at all advisable to buy food from outside in intermediate stations. Howver, nowadays most of the long distance journey trains are attached with Pantry Cars and they serve good food in some of the trains such as Rajdhani, Shatabdi.You can buy it when there is no alternatives to choose. Thanks.Happy journey.

Yes,Always i do take food and water along with me.

Well, if I'm going to travel by plane I'm not allowed to bring liquids from the outside, so I don't bring water. However, I usually bring food to eat while I wait to get into the plane, as I'm an early riser and I tend to go 2 hours before the plane will begin the trip. About bus and train trips, I usually bring a bottle of water, as my throat dries very easily, and usually food too, because I get hungry easily. I like specially carrying muesli or normal cereal bars, as they're pretty handy and nutritious.

yaah .. i will carry plenty of food depending upon the place i am going to. If minerals water is available at that place i will prefer not to carry not much of foods.. all depends upon the place which i will visit and how long the journey will be...
