Taking the longer commute

if the slightly longer route is the more pleasant one!

I started circumventing Union Square and the 4/5/6 by taking the F/M train instead, and while it adds on 5-10 minutes to my commute, it makes my morning SO much more pleasant. I usually get a seat and don’t have to cram on body to body, making my morning less stressful and worth the extra minutes. I feel like this is true driving as well — if you can make the route a bit more scenic, do it!!
