Chronicling the travel memories, musings, and desires of a tropical city girl out to see the world one backpack at a time.
I Likey

before an early morning flight. I was supposed to leave for the airport around 430 am today. I took a shower, finished packing, and was ready to go by 230. But, I thought it was too early to go since I already checked-in online, and I really wouldn’t know where to sleep at the airport. So I sat down on the couch, set 3 alarms on 2 devices, and took a nap. When I woke up it was still very dark so I was like, “Crap. What time is it? I have to call a cab.” It was 6am. My flight was at 625am.

I am a no show. And super broke. My travel insurance clearly can’t cover this one. I wish travel insurances would let you pay premium to cover missing flights for reasons such as this.

I also had three farewells last night that’s why I was up and ready to go by 230. And then I’m still here. That was pretty awkward when my friends woke up and found me still in the house. I really should’ve followed my instinct and went straight to the airport. *face palm*

ps:

Now that I’m thinking about it, if I went to the airport around 230am, I still would’ve fallen asleep somewhere in the terminal. But I would’ve made it for boarding…except check-in.
