Spain Travel Diary | 3 day getaway to Malaga

| Leave a Comment

Last week I went to Malaga with my good friend and colleague Michelle. This city trip was quite a last minute decision, so that made it even more fun. We decided to relax for 3 days in a much warmer city to catch up, because we had not seen each other for a few months. On March 4 we flew from our home base Eindhoven Airport, Standby, to Malaga with a very nice crew. I had a 3 day weekend, so as I had done before, a city trip fit in perfectly. We arrived in the evening, so we changed our outfit in our AirBnb apartment, and then went out for dinner.  By the way, our Airbnb’s is called Malaga City Breaks. What quickly struck me was the enormous hospitality of this city.

I have just returned from a 3-day spontaneous trip in my weekend with my good working friend Michelle. In 2018 we also went to Florence together. The trip really felt like a warm bath. We ate, drank, walked and cycled nicely and took many photos. The weather was really great! It was around 22 degrees celcius. I can consider myself as a lucky person because I had forgotten my camera in the taxi, and because the taxi driver had given us a business card, I was able to call him in time to turn around. When I opened the taxi door, when he came back after my phone call, the camera was there on the seat and I thanked him a hundred times for returning asap. THANK HEAVENS. [Read more…]

Being a Stewardess | 3 day Dubai Layover

| Leave a Comment

Welcome to my first layover diary and my second Stewardess post! As I have told in my other post, my work is my passion and I like to share some nice things about it. About a week and a half ago I was allowed to go to Dubai for 3 days with a nice crew from Amsterdam. I already knew my cabin crew colleagues from Eindhoven and Amsterdam, so that was of course extra fun. Dubai had long been on my wish list. The airline where I work mainly has ‘turnarounds’ so a layover is of course a very nice extra for a lot of people. Many people certainly look forward to it like me. Previous September I also had a nice layover in the city of Groningen. [Read more…]

A few days ago I had my first layover abroad. Dubai is a cool city! I was able to spend 3 days with a nice crew and one of my very best friends who lives an hour from Dubai. Where I am standing is at La Mer, where we have had lunch with the girls on the recommendation of my good friend Roos. This nice dress is well suited for around 20 degrees. Since it would be around 20 degrees in Dubai at the time I would visit, I thought it would be great to take it to this city. [Read more…]

Japan travel diary | Solo trip to Japan part 1

| Leave a Comment

In November, I went to Japan for 14 days. Just like I did in 2018, I went solo. I had booked the direct KLM flights via crew standby travel. After a flight of 10.5 hours in total, I left to the city the same way as last year, with the Narita express – a direct train connection to central Tokyo at Narita Airport station. The price of a return trip is 4000 yen (around 28 euros) – For the standby/crew members among us, you can also use the return ticket for another day, in case your plans change within 14 days.

Hi everyone! Japan was really a wonderful solo trip. I have experienced so much, got wonderful new memories and met many people. Soon I will place a lot of travel diaries from my last 3 trips. Where I stand here is in Shibuya on a high viewpoint. I am really happy with how the pictures have turned out. These photos were taken by Anita, with whom I went to lunch this day. [Read more…]

Portugal Travel Diary | 4 day Lisbon girls trip

| Leave a Comment

At the end of October I had been to Lisbon with a friend from my former study International Business (IBS). We were planning to visit a friend of ours who is studying there for a few months. Yanneke and I flew (standby) to Lisbon. This 4 day trip is for me number 4 of 2019 and my 3rd time in Lisbon. As I have said in many posts, Lisbon is my favorite city trip destination in Europe so far. The many colorful streets with sweet little restaurants keep surprising me. The follow up cities are Valencia and Porto for me. In 2015 I went there as a study trip (and during that time, my “cabin crew dreams” started). In 2017 I went there solo. [Read more…]

Lisbon is my favorite city trip destination in Europe as I have probably told you before. The colorful streets and all those cute places keep surprising me. I bought this cute dot dress in the sale of Loavies. I wanted to bring a nice new dress to Lisbon last minute, so I chose this one. Where I am standing here, is at Pink Street near Cais do Sodre. This colored street is a hotspot in Lisbon, where many people take pictures. [Read more…]
