How did you get to be such an avid traveler?

Since my mother is an ex-airline employee, I started travelling at a very young age. However, my first real traveling experience happened when I was 14-yrs old when I went to Brisbane, Australia with my younger brother and we had a tour of Universal Studios. That vacation made us realize that the world is such an amazing place especially by experiencing different cultures. Since then, I started exploring the world until I became a flight attendant where I was given the opportunity to travel to places that I thought I’d get to see only in my wildest dreams.

What is your most memorable experience while on one of your travels?

I had a flight to Madrid, Spain, which was a 6-day roster. Those 4 days off made me decide along with my 3 friends to fly to Ibiza via Barcelona. When we reached the place, we were so overwhelmed with the ambiance and good-looking people. We were so overjoyed with the beach party that we left our stuff in a bag on an empty bench with our passports and other valuables inside. We were robbed!!! From that point on we all felt exhausted and hopeless. After making inquiries with the police and other staff in the area, we went back to our hotel like soldiers that lost a battle. To our surprise, the phone rang and we got news that our stuff was found at last. To celebrate
