Bajan in the Sky: January 2015

Hello and greetings from my wonderful bed in Dubai! Happy New Year!! And Happy Easter since I probably will post again after that hahaha. I'm on a day off and I decided to show some love for my totally neglected, starving, (dying) blog! I won't even bother to say that I will try to post more often this time because clearly that's a task and a half. Life is fast paced for me and it involves flying, sleeping, preparing for flights and somewhat of a slight-ish-kinda-sorta-sometimes-maybe-not really social life in between (sleep always wins - sleep is queen).

Flying has been an experience for me and I'm sure some of you out there are so very curious as to what really goes on up in da sky where I spend so much of my time. The truth issssss... any and everything! I could never really walk you through 'a day in the life' because each day is different and I think that's what makes this job so interesting... because the job itself is repetitive but the situations on any given flight can be so different. Another thing that is pretty cool is the fact that you meet new people - customers and crew alike - on every single flight; that's because you never fly with the same crew twice and well, I hope you can figure out why there's new customers on every flight :).

It is awesome that I've gotten to see so much of the world in such a short space of time and it is equally amazing that if you asked me what I wanted to do this time last year I would've told you "I'm not sure yet - before I settle into anything I just know that I really want to travel a little bit first." I can't tell you how much time I spent Googling and researching different ways to go about seeing the world. Funny how life works out, hey? As with anything, its so easy to take this opportunity for granted and I can admit that sometimes I do - but in the moment, as I type this, and reflect and all that jazz - I truly am so grateful! I really do miss home a lot, sometimes more than I ever thought I could, but I know that its normal and that this is what I really wanted.. home will always be there and so will the people that love and support me. In saying that, I may shed a tear or 10 when I touch down on Bajan soil again - whenever that will be!

I guess this is my way of catching up since I don't have time to individually do so with as many people as I'd like to. I hope 2015 will bring you happiness, health and success. Work hard and play hard! To all my peeps who are so far away.. AH MISS YA more than you know! XO

Oh and here are some photos from my travels to make the post pretty :)
