Original:

I have another work place where is in Dongtan without a place in Huangpu district.When I work in Dongtan, I need to spent about two hours on the journey. First, I walk to Loushanguan road station of 2 line for fifteen minutes, then take five stops to People Square and then transfer 1line by one stop to South Huangpi road station, then again walk to my Huangpu office by ten minutes. Second I spent about one hour to Dongtan office by business car. It is a long way to work place, but when I take the car that is my sleep time, so I don’t feel tired.

Edited:

Other than our Huangpu district office, I have another workplace in Dongtan. When I work in Dongtan, I need to spend about two hours on the journey. First, I walk for fifteen minutes to Loushanguan Road metro station on line 2. After five stops, I transfer to Line 1 at People Square and, after one more stop, I arrive at South Huangpi Road Station. Then I walk for ten minutes to my Huangpu office and take a business car to the Dongtan office, a journey that takes about one hour . It is a long way to the workplace, but when I’m in the car I sleep, so I don’t feel tired.
