You could say the same thing about cars - they are only for getting from point A to B,right?

Yet I very often take my car for a drive, without a purpose or a destination in mind. Drive for a couple hours, through the nearest forests or hills, and then head home. It's fun.

See, this is respectable, if not that common. But when I tell people I sometimes just take a train somewhere new and then come back, they look at me like I'm weird.

No way. I used to take the trains in Seoul...going to new places. Sometimes I wouldn't get out except to switch platforms and go back. If it was the green line, I'd just go in a big circle, ha. It's good for clearing the mind.
