In the UK, bus journeys are just boring and simply a necessity. This public means of
transportation is often convenient when you live or work in the city centre, as you can avoid traffic
jams by moving very quickly in the bus lanes, and do not have to pay to park the car. After all,
though, taking the bus is just a necessary and tedious part of life: you board the bus, pay the driver
and sit down or find a place to stand. Very boring.
In Latin America, however, bus trips can be very lively. For a start, long-distance buses put
on films so that you have entertainment for at least some of the journey. Naturally, local transport
does not show films but drivers usually switch on the radio and that can be a great way to hear
new songs and new styles of music. Therefore, taking the bus doesn’t sound like fun but it is much
more exciting than any UK bus journey.
