Professional athletes or world travelers?

Posted by Staff in Carrie Williams, Writers:

laddmeduncsadams-300x165

This past weekend, I attended the 2009 Chicago Blackhawks Convention at the Hilton on Michigan Avenue in Chicago. I met a lot of players, participated in Q&A sessions and was just… in awe… listening to these professional athletes give advice, talk about their personal lives and pick on their teammates.

However, with travel always on the brain, I began to think, “These guys are some of the most well-traveled people in this room!”

Sihanoukville or bust…

Posted by Staff in Aaron & Georgie, Writers:

From Aaron and Georgie, our couple on the go….

Life in Sihanoukville (Cambodia) is going pretty good, we have been struggling with plans on what to do next and it’s been hanging over us for a while now but finally we have some stuff set in stone. The very very original plan from way back when was always to end up here in Sihanoukville and try to find some work… But of course that all changed all over the place. With all sorts of ideas flying around somehow we have managed to come full circle and ended where we planned to – in Sihanoukville looking for jobs, we have a sort of interview later today for both of us to manage a small Island resort an hour off the coast called Koh Ru on Bamboo Island, we have been there before and to be honest it’s a paradise. We are still at a bit of a crossroads as to what we actually want but if we get a job offer we can then make a proper decision… If we don’t, then its back to the UK with us. So thats the final plan of our whole trip – fifteen months and the end is very possibly in sight……

Wednesday’s Q&A

Posted by Staff in Sara Keagle, Writers:

Our resident flight attendant answers the following question:

Q: Since you work first so much, I’ve got to ask, what’s the easiest/hardest meal to serve? Seems to me like breakfast would be pretty easy since it has a lot less options, at least on AA, which is who I tend to fly. It’s basically just three choices, omelet or cereal/fruit, bagel or biscuit, and drink. Once you get into the dinners, there are a couple of hot options, you’ve gotta worry about wine & cocktails on top of water & all the other drinks, etc, etc.
