That was the pre-flying life. Current flying life is bad back, aching limbs, dry skin, jet lag, bereavement, foot pain, exhaustion but it's all good :)
Yes. It's nice to be home (especially in the summer) I took August off with unpaid leave and the month passed so slowly. It was lovely to wake up every morning and wonder what to do that day. The weather was good too. The nomad in me was itching to get away again though which was a problem.
