I chose a 12-hour bus ride over a $200 flight to Denver last month and it was the best travel choice I ever made.

I saved over $150, met a local who gave me a free walking tour, and realized the journey is a huge part of the adventure, so what's the longest trip you've taken that actually paid off in unexpected ways?

Honestly, that sounds like a nightmare. I took a 10 hour bus once and it was pure misery, broken air conditioning and a seatmate who snored the whole way. I'd gladly pay the extra money to get there in two hours and actually enjoy my destination.

Tbh, that reminds me of a bus trip I took where the guy next to me had a whole rotisserie chicken in his backpack. The smell was unreal by hour three. I still can't look at chicken the same way.
