The daily commute is unavoidable for many people in the UK.  

Whether it’s by train, bus, or car, time spent in transit might feel wasted on an otherwise busy day. However, with a plethora of entertainment options at our fingertips, the commute can be transformed into something more enjoyable!

In this article, we’ll explore various ways young working professionals can stay entertained and make the most of their commute.

5 ways to keep busy on the commute

  1. Learn a New Language

One of the most productive ways to spend your commute time is learning a new language. With language learning apps like Duolingo and Babbel, you can turn those idle minutes into valuable learning opportunities. 

In September 2023, leading language-learning mobile apps generated more than 27.6 million downloads from users across the globe. Whether you’re brushing up on your A Level French or tackling a completely new language, your travel time provides the ideal environment for focused learning without distractions.

  1. Listen to Podcasts

Podcasts are a staple of modern entertainment, offering a wide range of topics. It doesn’t matter if you’re into true crime, comedy, self-improvement, or current affairs, as every genre of podcast is accessible to you.

Recent data shows that podcast listening in the UK has been steadily growing. As of 2023, nearly a fifth of UK adults listen to podcasts at least weekly, compared to just one in ten back in 2018. Use your commute time to catch up on your favourite podcasts – or discover new ones to broaden your horizons.

  1. Mobile Gaming

Mobile gaming offers an escape from the monotony of routine. With a plethora of games available, you can immerse yourself in everything from strategic puzzles to expansive role-playing games. 

For those who enjoy a quick and engaging distraction, mobile slots can be particularly captivating. These games are easy to play in short bursts and can provide a thrilling experience with vibrant graphics and dynamic soundtracks. However, it’s important to ensure responsible gaming.

  1. Creative Outlets

For the artistically inclined, the commute can be a time to indulge in creative pursuits. Sketching apps, writing tools, or even simple notepads can transform your travel time.

Digital drawing tablets and smartphones equipped with styluses enable hobbyists and professional creatives alike to doodle, draft, and develop ideas on the go. Similarly, writers can use apps like Evernote or Google Docs to jot down thoughts and poems or begin drafting their next big story.

  1. Planning the Day Ahead

Finally, your commute might be the perfect time to plan your schedule.

Utilising this time to organise tasks, set goals, and review schedules can set a positive tone for the rest of the day. Productivity apps like Todoist, Asana, or Google Keep help you to track your time efficiently, allowing you to start your day with a clear mind. 

Conclusion

By transforming your commute into an opportunity for personal growth, entertainment, or planning, you can enhance your daily routine. Whether it’s through learning, gaming, creating, or organising, each commute becomes a small journey of its own.
