BELIZE it or not, this was paradise

“I don’t know about you, but there’s something so nice about being comfortable enough with someone to just sit and watch the sunrise together without having to say anything.” Caye Caulker, Belize is a tiny little island paradise that I’m already wanting to go back to. My best friends “found” the island a few years […]

Only a dream in Rio

The crew scheduling blessings continued to rain down. My second standby in February turned into a DREAM. Scheduling calls and says, “We’re going to deadhead you to Rio and then you’ll work back.” WHAT’S THAT YOU SAY?! A deadhead is essentially when the company needs to move flight attendants so they can work from another […]

Sea-ya-ttle

My first time in the Pacific Northwest was one for the books. I had just worked a four-day with two fellow new hires and we all ended up on the same Seattle trip. In the airline industry, it’s very common to click super well with your coworkers.. and then never see them again. Lucky for […]

Just touched down in London town

It finally happened! I was blessed with my first international trip and man was it a doozy.

New York state of mind

This isn’t the first time I’ve lived away from home. It’s not even the farthest I’ve lived from home. But one thing New York has in common with the other places I’ve lived, I never in a million years thought I’d live here. I even told my grandmother one time I had no desire to […]

AAdventure Awaits

I feel like my entire life, I’ve been wrestling with the idea of how I can be a responsible adult while keeping fun front and center in my life. “Peter Pan with a paycheck” was my goal. Growing up, I thought being a reporter would let me have a non-boring job while also being a […]
