I used to commute 2 hours each way to work.

I used to commute 2 hours each way to work.

This was extremely painful.

  • I have less time to study and exercise.
  • Sitting for long hours driving makes my back hurt.
  • Less time to sleep.

I didn't have much time, so I would walk and eat during my lunch break and listen to audiobooks.

You can eat, study, and exercise all at once (although it's not well mannered or healthy).

By commuting early in the morning, you can avoid the crowds and shorten your commute.

You can also spend some quality time at work or in a café studying or working.
I have learned to cope with the lack of time, but the shorter the commute, the better.

I retired early, but if I were to return to work in the future, I would like to work from home.
