Pros: Taking the bus was a convenient, reliable and economical way to visit my sister at State College. I loved that I could relax comfortably for three hours instead of having the stress of driving that distance by myself. Cons: The price is more expensive than driving myself and I thought it should be a little cheaper since it’s a shared ride. Tips: Bring earbuds and a blanket so you can take a nap during the trip.
