How Do You Do It? by Kjnwancaro(op): 3:17pm On Sep 22, 2017

I recently started traveling a lot for work and every single time I take off, 30mins into the trip I start feeling sleepy. I was wondering how you, the real traveler stay awake all the way.

Background sound and chewing.

Just music... That's all. Wind up turn on AC to avoid too much wind coming in. If u don't have ac just wind down a little to allow little breeze. If u still feel sleepy then don't force it, get someone else to drive or take a cab or bus.

Background sound I have tried. I even had to download some Dj mix on my phone yet they sound like blues. Haven't really tried chewing. Any recommendation?

Windows are usually wond up with ac on, right then it feels like I'm in my bedroom. Can't use a bus and to have someone drive is a long thing.

Some people can't just drive for long no matter how much chin chin they eat. Just like some people will fall asleep within 5 mins if getting into a car as a passenger. I would ask op not to force it to avoid stories that touch. Or drink a lot of coffee (not those diluted 3 in 1 o... I mean real coffee). If that still doesn't work then he should just avoid driving long distance.

That's true.
