The benefits of having a father that works for an Airline Company.
Almost made it to Amsterdam but the new aircraft that came out decided to have problems so we never made to amsterdam and i ended up spending the night in the detroit airport on a wooden foot rest and a peice of shit seat yeah can you say incredibly fucking uncomfortable yeah i dont think i slept a wink and just ended up walking through the whole airport from one end to the other playing tunes on the cd player.
It would have been a free flight since they let employees go on a test flight for free and my father works for an Airline.

But I was born overseas and travelled a lot as a result of my dad's aviation career - so I was lucky.
I have pictures of all of these places - way too many to ever dream of posting.
I have not been to Mexico, or South America - Greenland, Iceland, the Arctic or the Antarctic - the majority of Asia (Japan, China, Bangladesh, etc) - Madagascar - much of the Pacific Islands - and eastern Europe.
Travelling has been the single most worthwhile education I have had. School is great, certainly - but travelling teaches you many things that cannot be learned sitting under fluorescent lights taking notes.
And I bet you that Greg has me beat, for sure :!: - he's a travellin' man.
Iceland, Norway, Sweden, Denmark, England, Wales, Scotland, Ireland, Belgium, Holland, Netherlands, Germany, France, Italy, Mexico and Bahamas. Used to live in England.
