- bearmode 3y agoIf I could walk 30 minutes to work I'd be overjoyed. I'd consider it if my walk took an hour, which is how long my commute often is.
- haspok 3y agoCouldn't agree more: I used to cycle 15 mins to the train station, then take the train for 20 mins, then walk for another 10. Then I changed jobs and my commute turned to being 25 mins on the motorway. Which was shorter and more comfortable, yet I kind of hated it; I was so happy when I moved and changed jobs again. There is something about walking / cycling that makes even the most miserable day at least tolerable. Now my commute is a combined cycle + train journey again, but now I'm cycling through lovely countryside on quiet country roads. I cannot possibly convey how much I appreciate it, I used to be a city boy!
