I live in a semi rural area where I drive everywhere and have not had to use trains and public transport for many many years. However I have a trip today and for medical reasons I cannot drive so I am having to use trains. I am travelling alone.
The trip involves 2 train changes at large train stations and I have woken up this morning as nervous as hell. I think its a combination of travelling on stuffy trains, lots of people around and the general hustle and bustle of the whole thing. Plus feeling nervous of not making my onward connections. I am just not used to train travel anymore and am also used to a much quieter way of life and would normally avoid these kind of situations
.
Its a trip I have to do as its going to see my daughter at Uni in a major City and I want to go and am excited to see her, but wow, I can't believe how nervous and overwhelmed I feel about it this morning.
I leave in 30 minutes and my stomach is churning.
Please tell me I am being ridiculous and that I am a grown woman and can do this!!
