*Paid partnership with FOREO Skincare has been the most relaxing and comforting routine since I have all the time at home while my flight schedule stays empty.

* Paid partnership with FOREO My skincare routine has significantly changed since the lockdown back in April. My roster stayed empty with only two flights in the past eight months.

Daily skincare steps to improve my skin as well as my overall well-being. The most fun part were the beauty devices that I added to my morning and evening routine and my skin has never been better!

It was time for a change of scenery after being in lockdown for more than three months. It felt like forever when you consider that I’ve been flying for 20 years straight as a full-time flight attendant. I missed flying. And I missed sunsets at the beach so badly that it hurt.

You’ve heard this before, but we are all in this together. You are doing mighty fine! Let me tell you that you are blessed, loved and very appreciated. :) A lot has changed since Co ..read more

All we need is cake. Cake and love. And I found a vegan cheesecake recipe that comes so close to a real classic cheesecake. No cashews nuts, no tofu needed. And only five ingredients which you can easily cut down to the basic three if you are a minimalist. :) I’ve baked this cheesecake several times to adapt the recipe to my liking and reduced the amount of sugar as I always do. The original recipe is from Bake to the roots. The center of the plain cheesecake turned out to be so creamy. It is dense, rich, and light at the same time. You will get so addicted to this cheesecake! • The basic r ..read more

First of November. It was my blog fifth birthday and I was not able to upload this blogpost. My laptop finally said goodbye and so did my health condition. Twenty years of being a full time flight attendant(read the anniversary blogpost here), five years of full time blogging and two years of commuting has left me in a physical state where my batteries are more than empty.

I’ve been in a constant struggle jugglin ..read more

It was a chilly Monday in 1975 when my mom gave birth to me. And here I am. 44 years later, being a flight attendant for 20 years now and still going strong. I went through some ups and downs, highs and lows, but never lost my passion for that crazy thing called life. Even in my darkest hour, I knew this will pass.

Yes, I’m single, nd no, I don’t have kids. But I can tell you that I’ve never felt happier in my life. And I’m not asha ..read more
