travelling 101.

[grl_next_door]

I love the idea of traveling in style, however that is never me! I'm by no means "graceful" when i travel, a walking disaster would be a better adjective. After countless trips, I will still never learn the secret to "packing light" or how to "arrive in style". I'm that girl who is always fighting against time, that is running to the gate...barely

LOL. i loved this post because you know that i can attest to this.

i clearly remember that moment you left your carry-on in the middle of the store and decided to walk to a bench... sat on the bench while talking to R... that was the funniest moment evar... and me, i'm waving at you from afar yelling, "HUNNIE!!!! THE CARRY-ON!!!!" LOL>.... but i love you to death! just one of our many adventures!

I'm the guy with the backpack looking back saying, "gawd damn what a royal mess...oh shit she's on my plane."

this comment definitely made my day =)

hello fellow chaotic traveler

[unpossibly]

i'm the guy who holds up the line at the check-in counter because my luggage is 3lbs overweight. i'm the guy who walks the wrong direction away from my gate. i'm the guy whose name you hear on the PA system: "paging dennis. last call for dennis to board flight #408."

in my defense, all three of the above examples did not happen on the same flight. so i'm only mildly chaotic.

Make a checklist! I always carry my passport in one of those travel pouches that you wear around your neck.
