My coping strategy is usually fill my days with adventure of some sort.
A few weeks ago I booked a coach day-trip to London.
In the morning it rained and have traffic jams along the way.
Arriving late in London Tottenham Court Road near the Planet Organic.
I walked towards Goodge Station having walked passed places
where I can see Japanese food .
Usually I would have spent at least half an hour in Muji and maybe longer in Planet Organic.

(need to use underground route map)
Oops!
I have forgotten to bring my Oyster card
(stored value card for London public transportation)
With the self-service ticketing machine,
after checking how much it is to get return ticket (almost GBP10)
and how much it is to get a new Oyster card (GBP5),
I bought a new card,
with extra GBP5 to store in it. (enough for the journey I need)
Destination : the nearest station : High Street Kensington.
(Yeah , Kensington, but that is a big area)
Well, I picked up an underground route map ...
and still lost some time inside them maze!!
Need to be careful which way each time you find a platform and get on a train.
Anyway I got there.
Walked passed Marks & Spencer and it's easy to find.
