There's something magical about travelling alone, being on a plane by yourself. No one is asking you stupid questions about the wheels coming down, how long the flight is going to be or which mountains you're flying over, no one is judging your choice to get two Vodka and Cokes alongside your breakfast of Mac n Cheese, and there's no one to be offended that you've just had a … [Read more...]
