[ENG/PT-BR] The intercity journey of love. A true story!
A subject that is super serious and that usually leads to good discussions of ideas is public transport in a city. Here in mine it is no different, but as usual and following the Brazilian model of being, public transport in Goiânia (where I live) is pure chaos, of course this is nothing totally abnormal and several other capitals and their respective states face this major mobility problem, but this is not the focus of my text.
I would like to share with you, an adventure I had with public road transport, being one that has routes drawn to other cities and even to other states, since we have a memorable way of remembering good times that can be a pleasant trip alone or with our guys, after all, who has never been to another tourist city or gone to achieve some goal elsewhere. Here we have many cities in the surrounding area that have lots of greenery, waterfalls and inns, which could be to your liking, a good activity to do and disconnect from the big city for a bit.
In my case, although it is not routine to leave my city for these places, there was one time when I did something truly crazy in love (in fact, crazy things like the passion of a newly adult) which was when I was traveling with a friend of mine to a city called Itumbiara, which is approximately 208 kilometers from my city, to meet her sister, who at that time was dating me from a distance. Painful, yes, I know, it was a really cool experience, but, unfortunately, it didn't work out for several reasons.
Well, the first point is that I hope my wife doesn't see this story, because even though it was something done a long time ago and I didn't know her at that time, it's better to avoid my funeral! 😂
As it's been a long time, I don't remember 100% of the details, I must have been around 18 or 19 years old, I had already gone to college and made friends with this friend, fate allowed me to meet her younger sister and for those who remember, our official communicator was the late MSN. So the conversation goes back and forth, her being such a cool, fun and intelligent person captivated me and I decided to ask her to date, even from a distance. This was my first long distance relationship and despite the difficulties, it was one of the coolest moments of my life.
So, after a few months of this web-dating, her sister who studied with me asked if I would agree to go with her by bus to the city of Itumbiara on a weekend. Despite all my fears and not having the habit of doing this, as said at the beginning of this text, I really wanted to meet my girlfriend, give her a hug and a kiss, so I talked to my mother to tell me I borrowed some money, packed my bags and set off on a journey of love.
With an average of 3:30 to 4 hours of travel (I had to look on Google) by bus, it was a really fun thing to do, as we left the Goiânia bus station towards our destination, I remember that we left on Friday late, almost beginning of night and we got there around ten o'clock at night, the girls' father picked us both up from the bus station and took us to their house there. My girlfriend lived with her father and mother and my friend (who was her sister) and older, had gone to Goiânia to attend college where we studied together.
Well, obviously it was very emotional to be there to see her, hug her and kiss her, what I did was truly crazy for me, because I left my comfort zone and went to see who was most special there, at that time, going from bus and going to another city so far away for the first time. We had a good time there, I slept on Friday and Saturday and on Sunday afternoon we had to leave. Despite the short time, it was so worth doing all of this, I cried when I saw her and I cried when I left. Today I remember this and I keep thinking how funny these moments were.
Well, this is the summary, because focusing on saying what my road experience was like, this was my first time in all of this, traveling alone (in this case without my mother) seeking a goal for myself and that was uplifting. The trip itself was very peaceful, the older sister was a great friend of mine, so we talked about everything and it was very pleasant, we talked about classes, teachers, college, our dreams and everything, I also remember that We sat next to each other and further back.
When I was looking out the window, watching all that landscape pass by, it seems to activate a reflective mode in our lives, which was very pleasurable for me, whether looking or dozing off thinking about my girlfriend and how happy I was to be able to see her. There, it was something incredible for me. If I remember correctly, we only stopped once at a gas station on the side of the road, to go to the bathroom, drink water or have a snack. It's quick, as we only have about 15 to 20 minutes to do all this.
Anyway, it was something I did and it made me very happy, it showed me what makes us happy is not always there in our world and in our daily lives, they are good memories that make us reflect on how good it is to try and do something new. Just like a whole reflection, leaving the city, getting on a bus and simply going, following a path, getting somewhere and enjoying this unique moment of freedom.
Thank you very much to everyone who donated a little of their time to read. Until next time guys!
Um assunto que é super sério e que costuma render boas discussões de ideias é sobre o transporte publico de uma cidade. Aqui na minha não é diferente, mas como de costume e seguindo o modelo Brasil de ser, o transporte público de Goiânia (onde moro) é um puro caos, claro que isso não é nada totalmente anormal e várias outras capitais e seus respectivos estados enfrentam este grande problema de mobilidade, mas, este não é o foco do meu texto.
Gostaria de compartilhar com vocês, uma aventura que tive com o transporte público rodoviário, sendo aquele que têm rotas traçadas para outras cidades e até mesmo para outros estados, já que temos uma forma memorável de nos lembrar de bons momentos que podem ser uma viagem agradável sozinhos ou com a nossa galera, afinal, quem nunca foi para outra cidade turística ou foi realizar algum objetivo em outro lugar. Aqui temos muitas cidades no entorno que possuem muito verde, cachoeira e pousadas, que podem ser ao seu gosto, uma boa atividade para fazer e se desligar um pouco da cidade grande.
No meu caso, apesar de não ser rotineiro sair da minha cidade para estes lugares, houve uma vez que fiz uma verdadeira loucura de amor (na verdade, loucuras de paixão de um recém adulto) que foi quando viajem com uma amiga minha para uma cidade chamada Itumbiara, que fica a aproximadamente 208 quilômetros da minha cidade, para encontrar a sua irmã, que naquela época, namorava comigo a distância. Sofrido, sim, sei, foi uma experiência bem legal, mas, infelizmente, não deu certo por várias razões.
Bem, o primeiro ponto é que espero que a minha esposa não veja essa história, porque mesmo que seja algo feito a bastante tempo e eu não conhecia ela neste tempo, mas, melhor evitarmos o meu enterro! 😂
Como têm muito tempo, não lembro 100% dos detalhes, eu deveria ter uns 18 ou 19 anos, já havia entrado na faculdade e feito amizade com essa amiga, o destino me permitiu conhecer a irmã mais nova dela e para aqueles que se lembram, o nosso comunicador oficial era o finado MSN. Então conversa vai e vêm, ela sendo uma pessoa tão legal, divertida e inteligente me cativou e decidi chamá-la para namorar, mesmo que a distância. Este era o o meu primeiro namoro a distância e apesar das dificuldades, foi um dos momentos mais legais da minha vida.
Então, passado alguns meses deste web-namoro, a irmã dela que estudava comigo havia perguntado se eu não aceitava ir com ela de ônibus para a cidade de Itumbiara em um final de semana. Apesar de todos os meus medos e de não ter o costume de fazer isso, como dito no começo deste texto, eu estava com muita vontade de conhecer a minha namorada, dar um abraço e um beijo nela, então conversei com a minha mãe para me emprestar um dinheiro, fiz as minhas malas e partiu viagem do amor.
Com uma média de 3:30 a 4 horas de viagem (tive que olhar no Google) de ônibus, foi algo bem divertido de se fazer, ao sairmos da rodoviária de Goiânia com direção ao nosso destino, lembro que sairmos na sexta-feira a tarde, quase começando a noite e chegamos lá por volta de umas dez horas da noite, o pai das meninas foi buscar nós dois na rodoviária e nos levou para a casa deles lá. Minha namorada morava com seu pai e sua mãe e a minha amiga (que era a irmã dela) e mais velha, havia ido para Goiânia fazer a faculdade no qual estudávamos juntos.
Bem, obviamente foi bem emocionante estar ali ver ela, abraçá-la e beijá-la, foi uma verdadeira loucura para mim o que fiz, porque saí da minha zona de conforto e fui ver quem era mais especial ali, naquela época, indo de ônibus e indo pela primeira vez para outra cidade assim tão longe. Passamos bons momentos ali, dormi na sexta e sábado e no domingo a tarde já tivemos que vim embora. Apesar do pouco tempo, valeu demais fazer tudo isso, chorei quando a vi e chorei quando fui embora. Hoje fico lembrando disso e fico achando como foi engraçado estes momentos.
Bem este é o resumo, pois focando em dizer como foi a minha experiência rodoviária, esta havia sido a minha primeira vez em tudo isso, viajar sozinho (no caso sem a minha mãe) buscando um objetivo para mim e isso foi engrandecedor. A viagem em si foi bem tranquila, a irmã mais velha era uma grande amiga minha, então a gente conversava de tudo e foi bem agradável, falávamos sobre as aulas, os professores, a faculdade, dos nossos sonhos e tudo mais, lembro também que sentamos um do lado do outro e mais ao fundo.
Quando ficava olhando para fora pela janela, observar toda aquela paisagem passar, parece que ativa um modo reflexivo na nossa vida, no qual foi muito prazeroso para mim, seja olhar ou cochilar pensando na minha namorada e no tanto que estava feliz em poder vê-la, foi algo incrível para mim. Se não me falha a memória, paramos apenas uma vez em um posto de gasolina que fica em beira de estrada, para poder ir no banheiro, beber água ou lanchar. É coisa rápida, pois temos apenas uns 15 a 20 minutos para fazer tudo isso.
Enfim, foi uma coisa que fiz e que me deixou bem feliz, me mostrou nem sempre o que nos faz feliz, está ali dentro do nosso mundo e no nosso cotidiano, são boas lembranças que nos fazem refletir como é bom tentar e fazer algo novo. Assim como toda uma reflexão, sair da cidade, entrar em um ônibus e simplesmente ir, seguir algum caminho, chegar em algum lugar e aproveitar este momento único de liberdade.
Muito obrigado a todos que doaram um pouco do seu tempo para ler. Até a próxima pessoal!

Hello, thank you very much for the support! 😍
Hehe i have seen my friend doing this too..visited his gf 1000kms awayy just for three hours and then returned on the same day….i was like man what have you done and he be like no you can’t understand…..
So yes good moments matter alot than comfort moments …now i am totally persuaded
My God, 1000 kilometers is a lot, and he returned on the same day? Damn, that's an insane thing to do, I believe it's just out of love or something. It's moments like this that yield good stories later to tell and remember, of course it's good to remember the good times. 😅
You are funny 🤣🤣🤣 she won't do you anything since it happened before you met her.
The things we do for love. Moving away for the first time from your parents to meet your online girlfriend could be fun and risky, but it's always a memory to keep remembering.
I really hope that my wife doesn't do anything, I don't want to die early hahaha 😂.
It was really a really cool, fun moment and a great adventure for me at that time, it was good, I really enjoyed it and the good memories remained, I'm happy with what happened and everything is always a great learning experience.
Awwww! Now I understand why you hope that your wife doesn't see this😅 I can feel the love between you and your friend's sister. But, man! That was a crazy thing to do for love.
If my wife sees this here she will kill me lol 😂😂, jealousy exists even in relationships before I met her haha. At that time it was really a crazy thing to do, but it was really cool, fun and well, I was there next to the girl I loved at that moment.
We didn't work out, but the moments were incredible and I only take with me the good thoughts.
Pego o ônibus direto pra ir ver minha namorada, mas tenho sorte que são míseros 26kms 😅
Ainda assim, sempre sento perto da janela pra ficar ouvindo uma musiquinha e refletindo sobre a vida. É uma sensação tão gostosa.
26 KM ta de boa kkk, é até perto digamos então que bom que vocês podem se ver com uma boa frequência. Sobre sentar na janela, é sempre uma boa para poder pensar na vida, ver as coisas passando e tal, colocar uma musica e so relaxar até chegar ao destino.
Wow... She really has cool parents. Up here, if a guy comes all that distance to visit a girl, I doubt the parents would give him such a warm welcome. Except maybe directions back to the park to return home.
No wonder you enjoyed your trip. It was worth it😇
Damn lol 😆, a girl's parents sending the boy away after more than 200 kilometers of travel would be very embarrassing, but I believe that with a good conversation everything would be resolved!
It was a really cool trip, I really enjoyed everything, all the experiences and at that time I loved her so much, she was my passion and my love, so after a time when everything was virtual, seeing her live was incredible, my heart raced. ❤️😍😍
Ahhh what a cool moment and feeling those days were. 🥰
That for sure was a great love story💯💯💯 for you.... I had ones this kind of experience still trying to narrate about, let's see if i Will be able to write in the right way
It was really a proof of love at that time, I faced everything and especially my fears to go see her and it was good, I really liked it. I'm sure you'll be able to write, just take it easy and stay focused and a great text will come out!
