I always find somethin interesting at airports, funny, bemusing and so on. I guess if one gets so many different people together that's bound to happen. I have spent time in a lot of international airports and there's some sights to see, that's for sure.
Watered down coffee is bad wherever it's found...but a dunkin' donut can go a long way towards rectifying the wrong.
Happy new year to you, all the best for a good one.
I love everything about airports and flying. From buying the expensive food and snacks (maybe finding a TGI Fridays), to ambling around during layovers and watching all manner of people. I also love the smells of different places. They transport me into different realms of imagination and the exploration of new emotions.
For me, there's also this sense of freedom in flying. I feel this exhilaration like the world has endless possibilities - and possibility, for me, is one of the most attractive things about life.
Whether it's meeting someone new and hearing their story, or just being in a brand new place, or imagining what it'll be like one day too be an 'important businessman' flying for work like yourself.
I'd like to do that one day. Would be a whole new world for me. :)
Pretty much the same here, I enjoy the experience for the same reasons...although at times not so much.
Personal travel is awesome, the 'world is my oyster' feeling as you mention, and business travel can be, but is mostly not. People romanticize it and I guess it's cool initially but the more one does it the more it becomes a pain. Still, having said that, it can make for a nice change of scenery. I sometimes get to do road-trips also, I prefer those.
Good to know. Will put that into the brain bank: work to make personal travel possible -- and don't get too infatuated with traveling for work.
Yes! We love them so much. Drinking coffee (cheaper than in an airport) and talking about everything under the sun together. Eating fast food (also cheaper) in parking lots and watching people. Eating at restaurants (also cheaper).
...man, I think we just like any excuse to eat and drink coffee. Lol.
Also, getting worked up and excited about stuff (in a good way) -- and, of course, feeling that "oystery" feeling. As a fully remote freelancer, I've been able to do work meetings while sitting in the car at the beach, lol.
That part's really cool.
