Frustrations and joys of travel
PTTravel
replying to @BPackersGuide @BPackersGuide @kate_frankie @awktravels @AlaskaAir morally, no. It should be assigned by default. #pttravel Like we get our NI numbers.

Getting to the destination is the main frustration. I don't like flying or driving. #PTTravel https://t.co/eAih3qmCcC
replying to @BPackersGuide @BPackersGuide @kate_frankie @awktravels @AlaskaAir #pttravel In Europe. you don't need a passport if you have a national ID card. But, of course, the pig-headed British government would have no truck with them.
Have unlimited paid vacation and faster, more affordable trains in the US. #PTTravel https://t.co/3AJR5baQeu
A4 omg so much joy found while traveling:
1-Frolicking inside a Super Bass Pro shop that’s also the world’s 9th largest pyramid
2-Finally seeing the tiny lil war hats worn during the warring states era
3-Being spun around in an ice bowl by a random Alaskan family #PTTravel https://t.co/MKFWcBnirq
replying to @OanaRoua @OanaRoua @kate_frankie hahaha. so judging also by the answers to Q1, most people on #pttravel 's idea of a perfect travel experience is to eat and drink somewhere with no other people around! :D
A4: Enjoy a glass of red wine. Red wine can make every bad travelling day better. :) #PTTravel
A4 I meditate alone. That could be anywhere, but I prefer being surrounded by nature. (picture from the botanic gardens in Sydney) #pttravel
replying to @RTWBarefoot @RTWBarefoot @kate_frankie @awktravels @AlaskaAir Getting a NI number for me in the UK was a funny experience 😉 #PTTravel
replying to @kate_frankie @kate_frankie #pttravel a4 I have a friend who is worried about this on my behalf, but.
RT @lisaatthenext38: @kate_frankie #pttravel A1 crowded places. Crowded lines, crowded walkways, etc. I just don't want to be that close to…
replying to @lisaatthenext38 @lisaatthenext38 @kate_frankie I have often said my 'personal space' is measurable in light-years. #pttravel
replying to @BPackersGuide @BPackersGuide @kate_frankie @awktravels @AlaskaAir was it an *easy* experience? #pttravel

Not knowing exactly where the empty road goes when biking. #PTTravel https://t.co/SUYyJTdRDc
replying to @kate_frankie @kate_frankie #PTTravel A2 more leg room. I am 5'10 and if I am flying for 5+ hours I am tired of being squished.
replying to @RTWBarefoot @RTWBarefoot @kate_frankie @awktravels @AlaskaAir Unfortunately not. I took forever and two attempts 😅 #PTTravel
A4 #PTTravel Very first thing ... take a photo from the window of my accommodation Then (in no particular order) ... beer, something to eat or go for a walk.

replying to @lisaatthenext38 @lisaatthenext38 @kate_frankie Yes! I have long legs and it sucks. Having an empty middle seat means I can sit at an angle. #PTTravel
replying to @lisaatthenext38
@lisaatthenext38 @kate_frankie yup.
6'2 / 6'3 ish and I have been known to buy the exit row seat #pttravel
A4 I personally like window shopping in malls, night markets, or shopping districts! Some of my favorite around the world have been Shibuya, Tokyo, Ladies Market in Hong Kong, and the hutongs in Beijing! #PTTravel https://t.co/ovmBP6Hxz8
replying to @lisaatthenext38 @lisaatthenext38 @kate_frankie hehehe quite :) #pttravel Are there many good hiking spots convenient to where you live? It's great to get out into the hills and just ... be.
replying to @ChinaMatt @ChinaMatt @lisaatthenext38 @kate_frankie #PTTravel I'm in the same boat ... but, if I sit at an angle, it buggers my back!
replying to @RTWBarefoot @RTWBarefoot @kate_frankie Barfüßer 😅 That's a good one for you #PTTravel
replying to @kate_frankie @kate_frankie A4. I take me camera out for a walk. It’s the best way I know of resetting my mood and grounding myself in the moment. #PTTravel
replying to @BPackersGuide @BPackersGuide @kate_frankie I'm not saying I went there specifically, but, well, I did :D #pttravel

Q5 Tell us about good customer service you've had that turned your frustration into calm/gratitude
replying to @kate_frankie @kate_frankie A4: Have a glass of wine overlooking a delicious view! #PTTravel
replying to @kate_frankie @kate_frankie A4: I always travel with a Sephora foot and face mask so I can properly relax and watch some Netflix. I may also order a Dominos with lots of garlic dip. #PTTRavel
replying to @lisaatthenext38 @lisaatthenext38 @kate_frankie ah, awesome and so much more convenient! #pttravel I have to catch a bus ... (or possibly a train). Neither are long journeys but I still have to *do* them. (I guess I could walk there, but that would add more miles to the journey).
replying to @kate_frankie @kate_frankie #PTTravel A3 😴 a good nap fixes anything 😆
replying to @kate_frankie @kate_frankie #pttravel i try to avoid customer service. I've almost never contacted them for travel issues, possibly because of the way I travel.
Years ago, rental company messed up my car reservation twice (first time car didn't exist). At exit verification, the staff fixed the issue for me quickly and it ended up being cheaper. #PTTravel https://t.co/2a7hJlGVji
replying to @SoloTravelStory @SoloTravelStory @kate_frankie Girl, we'd travel well together! haha #PTTravel
replying to @lisaatthenext38 @lisaatthenext38 @kate_frankie i hate naps! They give me a headache and make a literal bad taste in my mouth #pttravel
A5 Every single customer service in Japan 😉 But I guess Cambodia wins. There was noisy construction going on next to my cheap backpacker hotel (I didn't complain). During check-in, I got upgraded to a 4-star hotel down the road + free dinner #pttravel
