True, I am so grateful for the free time that I get when I am travelling on bus, train or plane. We are always distracted by our gadgets when we are immobile which is a bad thing for us to get anything done. To be honest, I had myself separate from my gadget and just have a peaceful face to face talk, reading or enjoying some nice coffee for a certain amount of time. Exercising is another good way to get us more focused too.
I try to spend less time on my phone unless I must. I don't really consume much from the internet other than Steem and I only write when there is no one else around or, everyone is asleep. Too many interesting people are missed when the nose is buried in a screen.
