While I was traveling on a train,this incident happened.there were six people sitting inside our coupe and a seventh person came and joined us .We all had reservation for the seats,since it was a ten hour journey to reach our destination late at night,we started to talk to each other.One person in our traveling group was very sarcastic and made fun of every one,although it made us uncomfortable,we tolerated him,for it was a short journey and nobody wanted to create unpleasantness.There was only two hours more for the journey to end,a boy was having a cup of tea,and when the train jerked accidentally the cup slipped from his hand and it fell on our sarcastic travel companion.The boy profusely apologized for this mishap,but he got really angry and called him careless and clumsy.We tried to calm him,but he was going on saying hurtful things which spoiled all our moods.How do you deal with such mood killers in such journeys?

I once had coffee split on me when a plane journey was very bumpy. It was an awful flight because I was sick and got very bad ear pain. I was on a plane going to Tunisia. Years later I was on a train and was in a compartment with five other people. An old lady changed her top in front of everyone. It was so funny and then the people got chatting. They seemed quite interesting and friendly. That was in Romania. I traveled back to its capital city on a late train. Amazingly I got a train ticket to Bulgaria leaving the next minute. I ran off to catch that. On that train I was in a compartment with three local ladies. They bribed the customs people with US dollars which surprised me a lot. I wondered why they didn't use local currency. It was so very strange indeed.

Travel brings you in contact with many people,some reactions are funny and we laugh at it,others really make us boiling mad,but the truth is a seasoned traveler enjoys everything as experience.Hope I will grow to become one like that and not get annoyed at such disturbance.Thanks for sharing.

Hi rubyroy,
you guys showed so much patience.thats reallyappreciable.we should not pay much attention to these kinda persons.negligence is best for this situation,as we must not create a scene publicly.

Honestly I don't know how am I going to deal with it.
But for sure, that will be a bad day for me.
I don't understand why some people are too nosy, boastful and egoistic.

hhaha...I remember my journey because whenever travel in train start talking with any person who is besides me then others are join us and we all are enjoy because I start funny topic then others put their views on it. I feel my journey was less even it was long because we cant know how time is going.
