Milano, Italy



Hi!! Sorry for the long hiatus, been busy lately haha. Here`s my first post for the year 2015! I was in London again last December, with only a 24-hr layover, we only did some shopping for Christmas! And then Kuala last January, but it was a very short layover, I just stayed in after I got some groceries lol. Anyway, for my February roster, I got Milan and Kuala for my international flights with layover! :)

Luckily, my flying partner for the month of February is a Filipina as well, and she has relatives in Milano, which made going to tourist spots easier. Just like Rome, we use a narrow body aircraft on our flights to Milan. And we only had 54 passengers going! It was a red eye flight so everyone was sleeping ;)

The weather was so bad the day we arrived though. It was freezing cold, and snowing!!! <3 We arrived at 7 in the morning, local time, and we arrived at the hotel at around 9. If it wasn`t my first time in Milan, I wouldn`t go out. The weather just makes me want to stay in and cuddle... with the pillows and the blanket haha. We didn`t get a chance to get around that much because of the weather, so here are some photos I`d like to share <3

Kuala Lumpur

Hello! Another post that is long overdue again :D I have to post this one now since it`s almost two months overdue :)) Anyways, so last November, we had a 27hr layover in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia! :) It was my first time in Malaysia so I was excited to see the city. It feels like my hometown, Manila, since the weather is alike, plus the time is the same.

We arrived in the afternoon, the hotel was far from the airport so we had time to rest at the bus before we reach the hotel. When we arrived at the hotel, we just changed and then went out to explore Kuala :) Here`s a peek of my hotel room, and I`ve got the view of the KL Tower outside my window ;)



We first went to see the KLCC, we took the metro, and at the KLCC station there`s a mall right outside the metro. We checked out the grocery store, since I needed something for personal use and it`s super emergency haha, then we bought Old Town Coffee packs which were on sale!! After that, we went to the food court called Taste Enclave, looking and hoping for pork (haha), then ate before we went to see the Petronas Towers outside.

When in Rome

Heeey, this post is long overdue haha. So, last October 31st, we had a 26hr layover in Rome, Italy!! I was super excited to see another Europe city and since the aircraft we use for flights to Italy is just the narrow body one, it`s a plus that we`ll only have a few passengers on board ;) And so we did, super light load on the way to Rome woohoo! This one`s my personal favorite flight so far ;)

We arrived in Rome at about 1-2 in the afternoon, it was quite a long drive to the hotel. After we arrived, we went to our rooms to change and rest for a while before we go out. Luckily, we had another Filipina with us, she`s our senior and she knows the way around. We all went to the Vatican that evening. As I mentioned in my previous post, again, I`d like to think our company is so thoughtful for letting us stay in a beautiful hotel which is just beside the metro! Talk about convenience haha.

London in October

Hey everyone! I finally got time to write about my first Europe layover :) When the October roster came out, my roommate and I were so excited that we`ll be flying partners for the whole October :) We were blessed to have two Europe flights for this month :)

Last week, I had a 29hr layover in London! I don`t know what to feel because it still feels so surreal even after I had the chance to stand almost beside the Big Ben, see the London Eye and step on the Tower Bridge hehe

Anyway, so, it was a very short layover, when we arrived at the hotel, luckily they still serve breakfast, so we had breakfast before we went to our rooms and change, rest for a bit and then went out. Lucky for me, my flying partner has been to London last month so she knows which way we`ll go.

Our company is so thoughtful that they chose a hotel just nearby the Big Ben and the Houses of Parliament, the London Eye, and also the underground train and bus stops :) We bought this unlimited one day pass for £8.90 which you can use on either the train or bus until AM04:00. I took a photo of this bus which the final destination is Notting Hill Gate hehe, I love watching movies and Notting Hill is one of my favorite Julia Roberts film :)

Come fly with me :)

Hello!! I have been wanting to write since I got back from Manila to start training with this one big airline here in the MidEast, but since time didnt permit me to do so, here I am now, trying to summarize everything that happened since June in one boring post haha

So, after two months of initial training, I finally got my wings :) No one else to be grateful for but God and my whole support system (haha aka my family, friends and this really sweet guy :>) who stayed with me throughout my journey to fulfill my dream of becoming a flight attendant :)
