I wish rail travel to and from where I am wasn't the absolute worst. I'm on a peninsula in the only city you can really call a city until you hit Montreal, which is about 12 hours by car although you'll spend 2 getting into the city because of infinite construction. The train, however, makes a stop in seemingly every single small town in all of New Brunswick and takes 30 damn hours. And it was $200, fuck via rail
Honestly it's the only time I took a passenger train. In the states I've generally been touring eith a band and therefore driving and otherwise I've gotten around by hitchhiking, I'm right in that zone between too scary for someone sketchy to pick up and not too scary for someone cool to pick up. If you're a socially inclined person, it's pretty fun and if you know how to depart your town reliably you're looking okay. For me the first bus in service in town is a 4am one to the airport, it gets you there at 4:30 which is absolutely perfect because it gives you a half hour to walk to the exit ramp cause trucks leave at 5, get one of those and sometimes your still getting 12 hours out of town.
Socially inclined is less in the desire sense and more in the skill sense. I'm funny as hell in a conversational kinda way especially. I'm witty and dry and have had the social ace up my sleeve since 7 that I can make anyone laugh more or less at will (everyone secretly does love puns and dad jokes). Also I carried a crocodile dundee knife as well as fireworks and if things went sour I'd threaten em.witj a knife and then set off fireworks in the cab. But that's just deterrence.
