Through my career I have been travelling regularly, more and less intensively,
doing around the world trips in much less than 80 days (not like Jules Vernes)...
but being equally or more sick... however...

Pre 2008 was a very hectic period,
One trip was Brussels -> London -> San Francisco -> Minneapolis - San Francisco -> Hong Kong - Shenh Zeng ->
Hong Kong - London -> Brussels

At a given point in time, I was sick, very sick, sick like a dog !
i did not know if it was Saterday, Sunday or Monday....
completely lost in space and time.. horrible feeling

While the period from 2008 - 2013 had been calm
It seems like a more hectic period is presenting itself today...

I will now do a new experience, even more tempting

tuesday brussels -> dubai
wednesday dubai -> sydney
saterday sydney -> dubai
sunday dubai -> brussels

i will keep you posted on the progress
the scenary

i have a few friends in both Sydney and Dubai
so there will be a few social pictures along...
stay tuned a feel free to comment

check in with me and let's board for a 37.000 km trip in less than 5 days...
with beautiful scenarios along Dubai and Sydney

Sigh!

Reminds me of a trip when I tradled.

(Traded + Travelled)

My route?

Mumbai (traded off 4G dongle till last minute before boarding flight)

->

Chicago (traded though awesome hostel WiFi, also met Morad Askar! and experienced the pits too!)

->

(was supposed to go to San Francisco via Amtrak "California Zephyr" but I slipped on some hardened snow and sprained my ankle) so rescheduled as follows)

->

on Greyhound to New York (traded using the Greyhound WiFi - was awesome! @Futures Operator was rather amazed at me trading through such unknown reliability net but I must have been addicted, will not dare to do this again)

->

New York (Traded via hotel WiFi)

->

flight to Oslo, Norway (it was a Norwegian free WiFi equipped plane, so ...drumroll... traded during flight, 35,000 feet above etc etc.)

->

explored Oslo

->

Norwegian flight to Stockholm (flight had free WiFi, so... blah blah)

->

traded at Copenhagen airport, wanted to catch Arlanda Express and explore the Gamla Stan old town but had a position on by then so traded ....

->

caught a flight to Dubai (flight had free WiFi so....)

->

also booked next flight to Mumbai using plane's WiFi lol

-> back at Mumbai

Took around 7 or 8 days for the whole thing....

I forgot to mention that I also was booked to visit Tromso (to view the Northern Lights from the Arctic countryside) but the flight into Oslo from New York was delayed so had to discard that leg of too and fro Tromso and hence contented myself with Oslo sightseeing.

The airbus A380... impresive... it is

Luxury inside, up to date console
you can charge your ipad/iphone
there are thousands of video/music on demand

good service, quality cabin crew

smooth (too long) flight
we left Dubai with 1 hour of delay
but catched up with a tail wind
