My trip to Edinburgh didn’t start well. Only two hours before departing via bus from London, I realized I booked the wrong bus.
I booked the bus leaving the following night. It was an overnight bus, so it was already getting late. Quickly, I asked if I could reserve another night in the hostel: no vacancy.
I called to see if I could get a refund so that I could book the bus leaving in a few hours. It turns out, I was able to swap tickets and avoid inconvenience.
Lesson learned: never be afraid to ask questions.
After a long, sleepless night on the bus, I reached Scotland. It’s about a seven-hour bus ride from London.
