Really enjoyed this Lee . I think that we are all wary & nervous about travelling again especially with this new variant arriving on our shores. Who knows when we will feel comfortable & safe again...stay safe & well !
Love the weaved in travel tips but most of all the excitement I could feel rising. We are booking to travel to India in March and the biggest question in this new travel realm is what do we do if we are not allowed to return to Australia because of unforeseen COVID peaks?
All the best Lee. Coming from Melbourne I can report reintegration is a slow process for me. The loss of conditioning is real. Went to Moulin Rouge last week. Beyond fabulous but it was as if the crowd had forgotten their role - to cheer and clap. Am going to fly to Adelaide this weekend and it is a rigmarole. Just staying on top of the requirements in each state let alone and downloading all the right documentation is a thing. My sister is in Calgary (4yrs since seen her) and we not at a point yet were we feel comfortable to organise anything. Following with interest
I am so glad you're back on the road so to speak. I can only imagine your frustration being the traveler you are Miss Lee. It has been bad here but I have actually been able to move around so much easier here in the States. I look forward to reading your words and discovering what you find in your new explorations. Best of all, and this is me hoping, I will get to sit down and have a long catch-up visit with you here in New York!
Oh Lee, loved the article, can’t wait to get overseas again either. Lost the last two years of my passport, never mind I am excited to renew it and get back on that big A380. Have a wonderful trip.
I found that temazapam sleeping pills worked best on long haul as they get you off to sleep for a few hours and no hangover or groggy feeling from it 😴
Reading your stream of thoughts it makes me feel like the world is returning to normal and I too will soon be boarding a plane to travel to a city of mystery and excitement.
I love this! It makes me crave airports and squishy economy seats and customs and security and bad food and everything about getting to a far flung destination!
So interesting to read this as its exactly how i feel now about long haul travel now. Not sure i am ready yet or can be bothered with all the extra checks and requirements but we’ll see as time passes and i hear about others experiences. I used to use Avomine for sleeping but it is not available now either and my American melatonin supply is way out of date so not sure what I’ll do, Circadin for jetlag perhaps. Good luck with France I’ll be interested to read how it goes, it’s my favourite place in the world.
So enjoyed reading this, Lee. Keep 'em coming!
Love this piece Lee. Enjoy. Best. B

Lee, I really enjoyed this and I'll feel exactly the same when I venture overseas again in early 2022. Have a fantastic trip!

I can recommend a great read inflight, especially heading for Paris: The Woman in the Lobby.
lovely read to warm me up on a chilly day here in Niseko - look forward to welcoming you guys back here at some stage soon :-)
