The 30 000ft secret spa

Being a flight attendant, I spend a lot of time on planes, and very few things still surprise me. Strange behaviors sometimes develop  at 30 000 feet. But we are kimd of used to it, we love our jobs nonetheless and it usually makes really good cocktail stories. 

But every time I stand outside the lavatory for over 20 minutes, I can't help but be surprised and wonder if I am missing out on something in there, something only passengers know about and don't want to share with us flight attendants.

Maybe a secret button to access a bathtub spa, or perhaps a yoga room, or maybe even an exclusive speakeasy bar. You might think I am losing it, but I am very serious. I just can't see any other "reasonable" explanation to what people are doing in a 3x3-foot-dimension toilet for over 20 minutes or so. 

Where is the button? 

I know it's not super ladylike to talk about what is happening in a toilet, but I am just too curious not to ask for your opinion on this matter 'cause I am barely 5'4" and I don't even have room to make any sudden movements in there. It is just too small. 

 So what do you think people are doing in there for so long? Meditating? Playing Angry Birds? Trying to annoy the other 300 passengers who might need to use the lavatory ... I can't help but wonder every single time ... 

Maybe that's the solution 

EAT WELL, TRAVEL OFTEN, TAKE PICTURES

Trop Bon Trop Con

"Trop bon trop con" is a French expression that means that if you are too nice, people take advantage of you. True or false? Honestly I am not sure but it definitely made me wonder. Since I am old enough to remember, I have usually been nice. The kind of person who changed her plans for family or friends in order to accommodate everyone - with a smile. The kind of person that didn't think twice about spending more money on gifts for others than for herself because truly giving is more rewarding than receiving. But lately it seems I have run out of niceness. If you are wondering if niceness is a real word, it is! I looked it up. In many occasions, I found myself losing patience quicker than usually and not willing to meet anyone half way. My way or the highway kind of theory. And if someone made a mistake, well apologizing doesn't seem to cut it anymore. I wonder if my friends noticed, or if it is all the same for them. I talked to my brother, and he said

Hotel de Villeon, a gem located in Ardeche

When my friends Isabelle and Thibaut invited me to their wedding a few weeks ago, I was excited. Not because of the location of the wedding, I didn't even know where Tournon-Sur-Rhône was until I got there, but because I love weddings. Yes being single doesn't stop me from having fun celebrating all my friend's being madly in love and wanting to spend the rest of their lives together. Plus luckily for me, my friends are really cool and their weddings are super fun. And Isabelle and Thibaut's wedding was no exception to the rule.  The wedding took place in an old tunnel, which that alone was awesome. Champagne overflowed all night, and desserts kept multiplying, so of course I was extremely happy. And as for the bride and groom, they looked lovely and literally like movie stars when they exited the church ceremony in a white and red vintage Citroen. P-E-R-F-E-C-T-I-O-N        But really the whole weekend was perfect. Tournon-Sur-Rhône was perf

Girl's Trip Complications

Image
Anyone who has ever tried to put four girls in the same picture knows how difficult it can be, not to get them to take the picture, that's easy the part, but to get all four of them to agree that all four look good in one single picture and one single setting: "it's never the right profile, the right angle, the right look, the right filter and so on ..." It never ends. One of the girls will always claim to not look good enough. Us women like to complicate things, it is a fact. So what did I decide to do? Well I thought it would be fun to organize a girl's trip with a bunch of very different girls who mostly don't know each other. Sounds crazy, Right? But I have done it once with two girlfriends of mine who didn't know each other, and it all worked out. One glass of champagne in our cozy Business seats, and all three of us were BFFs for the rest of our Istanbul adventure. So why not try with more girls? Well because as a Facebook virtual friend of mi
