Here are my 3 favourite ways to travel

Number One: By cruise ship

I live in a harbour city, so it’s easy to travel by ship. Everything is done for you. The food and the entertainment. You sleep in a cabin. All you need is to relax. I’ve been on a cruise to Stockholm the most. Then to Riga and Tallinn at Christmas. Then to Saint Petersburg, Russia some years ago.

Number Two: By train

It’s a bit more expensive than by bus, but it’s the fastest. I travel to Helsinki twice a month. The most challenging part is the sleeping arrangement. I find it difficult to sleep sitting up, so my sleep is light. I’ve also travelled to Lapland by train, but then you have a bed to sleep on.

Number Three: By bus

It’s the same on a train. I can’t sleep sitting up, but at least I can rest a little bit. You can’t move like you can’t on a ship or a train, but it’s easier than driving yourself. I don’t like to drive long distances either, so the bus is my 3rd favourite way to travel.

Bloganuary: A billion dream

Blogaunuary: If you had a billion US dollars, how would you spend it?

In my case, it’s in Euros. But money doesn’t make you happy. Having money is good, but having a billion would be a nightmare. Many problems exist worldwide, so I wonder if a billion is enough. It’s hard to imagine what to do with all of that money. Many homeless people would have homes, that’s for sure. The way people treat poor people is appalling. Greed is a terrible thing. Many problems would be solved if people with lots of money would give something back to society. Now they only use the money for their own amusement. Certain people shouldn’t have all that money.

If I had a billion, I would try to get rid of it as soon as possible. I would keep enough so I wouldn’t need to find work and have no money issues. The rest I would give to different charity organisations. One of them would be for cancer and other deadly disease research. The other would be for saving the whales and other sea creatures. There are so many ways to get rid of that billion. But there is no money, so there is no help. It’s all a billion dream, after all.

It seems I have written about the same subjects, Bloganuary has this year. Today’s it’s chore that is challenging. I don’t like repeating myself, so here is an old post about a chore.

Job search is a chore

There are very unpleasant chores like cleaning the bathroom and then there a chore a lot of people need to do to survive. That is a job search. Sorry for writing a post about it again but the word ‘chore’ is kind of a boring subject. It’s not even fun to write about. Writing about a job search is not that either so it’s actually a chore as well. An unpleasant thing, a routine.
