Also, I won’t share my popcorn with you (because I just love popcorn too much) ? 2️⃣ I get hand sweat in the worst situations - not always - but like, A LOT of times. Not nice to shake a moist and slightly wet hand... Ew. ? 3️⃣ I’ve never seen the movie Top Gun (only half of it, then I got bored) Sorry #topgunfans here!! ? 4️⃣ I’m an introvert.

How is it being a pilot… who’s dependent on people traveling, in the midst of a pandemic (and travel restrictions)? Let me tell you how it was before (and then how it is now).

I was 17 years old when I decided I wanted to become a pilot. That’s when I applied for the government funded aviation school in Sweden and went through the difficult multitasking- pilot aptitude tests and psychological evaluation that was necessary to pass in order to get accepted into the school.
