Did you enjoy traveling by car when you were a kid?
Yes, I did. When I was a child my family often went on short trips by car. I enjoyed looking out of the window and watching the countryside go by. Sometimes we played simple games or sang songs. I got bored sometimes on very long drives, but mostly it was fun.
Definitely — I loved family car journeys when I was young. They felt like a small adventure: I’d press my face to the window and watch the scenery change, spot animals and little towns, and we’d play word games to pass the time. Those trips also meant quality time with my parents, talking about things we wouldn’t at home. Even now I associate the sound of the engine and a bit of road banter with happy memories.
