And hello from Canada!

How was the flight? Crying. Lots of it. Lots of families travelling. Sat next to a family with three kids! They must not be Mainlanders. Smelled like poop. And then the kid started crying two hours in.

What about the AirPods? They didn’t have the nature sound cancellation.

Amazing how eleven hours of your life can just pass by. What did I get done?

Two episodes of Succession, Season 3, Episodes 3 and 5, I think.

Barely any editing done.

TRIED to get to the airport early aaaaand yet still just made it as boarding was underway.

Packed up some DaoXiangCun and got some cars for the boys. A couple other gifts that needed to be repaid.

Hot so it was hard to stay not sweaty.

Traveller’s tips:

Bring earplugs or ocean waves on your phone (make sure AirPods are charged)

Don’t drink alcohol. Drink lots of water. Welp… what’s worse, a glass or wine or beer or a crying child?

Compression socks

Change of clothes in your backpack. Especially undershirts

Brush your teeth before your first flight.

Zinc and magnesium

It’s going to suck.

Lastly, make more money to afford business class
