Public Transport Is Terrifying
— U
ntil You Become an Expert
This may be something Americans in general have a problem with because we so infrequently use public transport at home (depending on where we live). But we are notoriously terrified of public transport in a new place. One of my friends didn’t figure out for months that the reason British buses were breezing past her was because she wasn’t lifting her hand to wave them down.
However, once you become an expert and don’t even have to glance at the map to know where you’re going, it feels like you’ve unlocked a superpower. Especially when a newbie friend joins you and gawks in terrified awe at your navigational skills.
