My Passion is Flying. What is Yours?

Do you also love flying? 

Here's the story of why I created my second book when covid-19 hit our airline industry. 

\"Why do you fly, and why do you travel? Some people travel for work, business, adventure, and to get out of their comfort zone. Others use travel to reflect, to escape, to relax, to celebrate, to learn, to build relationships, or to become a new person.

Suddenly, the world has stopped flying because of the coronavirus. The pandemic has changed the world of travel.

The impact of the covid-19 has devastated airlines worldwide. Demands have fallen because of fear of covid-19 and global efforts to stop the spread of the virus.  Airlines are trying to survive. Planes have been grounded, and many employees take advantage of the voluntary unpaid leave and retirement program. Others have lost their jobs because of massive layoffs and furloughs. The pandemic has even forced some airlines to go out of business.

It is for these reasons I created the I Love Flying journal: to honor those who have lost their lives due to covid-19, to admire the frontline workers in the aviation industry, to encourage globetrotters to continue their passion for travel, to inspire people to explore the world, to advocate that flying is safe with proper precautions, to uplift the spirit of traveling, and of shedding some hope in these challenging times.

While the recovery advances and the progress against the covid-19 continues, more travelers will venture out and fly again. I am so excited to share this unique journal that you can take along with you on your next adventure. I used my photos to show a different perspective of the world through flying. Flying and traveling reconnect us with ourselves and with others. It can bring out the best in us. It can empower us.

If you love flying and traveling, I encourage you to write your stories and create your book of life. Writing your thoughts and memories about your flying experience and travel adventures is a way to reflect. I Love Flying journal can be a time capsule of your memories, people, places, and experiences you have encountered.  If you are like me, you may forget some details of your travels, but writing them down is a way to help preserve them. You can always look back to this journal and share your stories with your friends and family.

Set your travel goals. Fill in your bucket list. Find an adventure. Discover a new country. Enjoy the experience. Remember those memories. Capture poignant moments. And see for yourself the magnificent world in which we live.

Through your I Love Flying journal, I hope you build inspiration to create more wonderful stories and memories. Keep flying. Keep traveling.\"

If flying is not something you enjoy, reflect on what you love doing and use that to write your story in a book, a blog, or a simple journal.  There's no age limit. But starting young will give you more opportunities.

Continue doing your passion. It will empower you and take you to places you didn't imagine you could go.
