Method 2 of 5: Self-comfort while traveling

1. 

   Observe people. One of the best parts of traveling is being in places with lots of people to see. Whenever you get bored in crowded places like subway stations, airports, bus stops, cafes ... observe people around.

2. 

   Wiretapping. Eavesdropping on conversations going on around you. Try to find weird chats to eavesdrop on and don't let people notice you're spying on them. Instead act like you're reading a book or a magazine.
   • Rewrite what you hear and turn it into a short story or poem.
   • If you're traveling with friends, turn this eavesdropping into a distraction, see who overhears the conversation or the weirdest things.

3. 

   
   
   Dress up for a new look. When you travel, you can be whoever you want. Be a light and reliable person while you're on an airplane, at the bus stop, while waiting for a train ... See if this look is trusted in everyone's eyes!

4. 

   Create games. Sometimes this is the only way to get you excited, whether you are an adult or a child. You can play "I am a spy" - a game that is quite enjoyable for the kids in the car. You can also create your own games, depending on where you are.
   • Establish a scoring system for troublemakers. This can come in handy when you're stuck somewhere during peak festival season. There are always people who have the ability to forcefully irritate others and turn their disruptive habits into a game that makes them more accepting. For example, you would add 10 points if the guy cuts you off the line, or add 5 points to the kid screaming during the flight.

5. 

   
   
   
   
   Call or text a friend. Inquire about their situation and pass on your quirky travel experiences to them. You can think of ideas for filling up time. You will have someone to chat with and pass the time together. advertisement

1. 

   Compromise. Okay, you can't agree with anything. Choose something you want to do and match it with what your friend wants to do. For example, say you want to watch a movie while your friend wants to make a cake. Then bake a red carpet cake with edible movie-themed decorations (if you're an experienced baker) and then watch a movie about the cake. This might be a bit of a bad example, but you probably already have your own idea.

2. 

   Listening to music. Maybe there's something in your favorite song that will inspire you. This might seem like a weird idea, but don't try it! Listen to a song describing something familiar to you and get ideas from it.

   Eat. To limit excess calories, cook with friends. You can then get rid of these extra calories with exercise. Eating while bored is not a bad habit if you know how to eliminate excess calories and choose healthy foods. But if you're going to exercise, make sure to drink enough water first, you can now turn exercise into a game. You can race bicycles with friends or simply chase your friends.
4. Challenges. Don't go blank here. If you are in a crowded place, this is great. For example, challenge your friend to a stranger and ask if they want to finish off your bad lemonade. If you're at school, a great way to make your lunch more enjoyable is to challenge a couple to sit at two different tables, with some rivalries, and try to be calm.
5. Build a dance schedule with your friends. First choose a good song, then choose the way of moving and finally choose the outfit. Then choose a date to perform and practice everyday! advertisement
