So I am sitting at Frankfurt Airport and writing this blog post. It is ridiculously humid here. My flight was almost one hour early and the last time it was an hour late. I guess that’s the difference between flying in the middle of the summer and middle of winter. So I have now four hours to kill not three. I still can’t find the so called “Starbucks” that is supposed to be located on level 2 of terminal B. There isn’t any souvenir shop and the Tiffany & CO is coming soon. Despite all this, Frankfurt is still my number one transit airport. People are not extremely rude like Heathrow and people can speak English unlike the Narita International Airport. And there are little boxes you can go and a smoke. Downside of this airport, have to pay for Wi-Fi. That’s pretty much all airport except Pearson (which is so slow and it does not connect!).
This trip is making me wish that I had the option of taking this trip in August, which would have given me the time to enjoy at least one European country for minimum a week. But if you are close to me you know the reason for doing this very short trip in June. I have only been to five countries so far: Malaysia, Singapore, Bangladesh, Saudi Arabia, and Canada. And lived a significant amount of time in three of them. Not sure if this makes me very “worldly”. I know people who have been to less countries than that and people who have been to tons more. I am hoping to cross of some European countries in a year (more precisely next summer) and eventually more of the Middle East.
This time, the flight did not kill me. I guess being sleep deprived and writing an exam the day before an almost 13 hours on air does have a toll on you. The interesting factor about this flight is that most people worry about a screaming child on aboard. There were a couple of infants on board but not a sound. Instead I had a screaming old Indian couple sitting behind me! And even if tried to sleep, I was waken every 15 minutes cause of this man! I mean how many times can you ask someone to be quite? Hoping the next flight will be empty and I can get some sleep. I am too scared to sleep now at the Frankfurt Airport Leisure Zone. I am scared that I will miss my connecting.
Anyways until next time...
XOXO
