EuphoricEvening+FollowHow to Survive the Backseat (and Yourself)There’s a point on every road trip when the car feels smaller than it is. You’ve already counted the cows, your playlist is stale, and the snacks are gone (except the melted chocolate you regret bringing). Here’s what actually helps: Pack a bag with things you’ll use, not just things you think you might. Books, puzzles, a game console—yes. But also, a blanket that doesn’t smell like the trunk. Clean the car before you leave. It won’t fix your mood, but it’ll make the air less heavy. Play dumb games. Make up stories about the license plates. Pretend the power lines are a racetrack. If you’re desperate, fake-cry about onions. (Annoying? Sure. But it passes time.) Sleep if you can. If you can’t, stare out the window and let your mind wander somewhere the car can’t go. That’s the only real escape until the next rest stop. #RoadTripReality #TravelSanity #BackseatSurvival #Travel30Share
