Thanks, Camille. For me flying, like many things, is a conflicting, nerve racking combination of frightening and amazing.

Having spent more than two days in the last month being suspended amidst the clouds I think I am learning to finally accept, as Z said, to trust in blind faith. And then the plane takes a sharp drop and as my fingers grip the armrest and I look for telltale signs of panic on the airstewards faces I know I will never fully trust a big chunk of metal precariously suspended in space.

Lovely post however, and if I may jump on the praise bandwagon, new site design.

I have so many thoughts on flying that it amazes me this post is only one paragraph. Still…

Thank you both. I am pleased you are finding the design rather erm, pleasing.

What I love about flying is the way you have to suspend reality and belief, and just trust in blind faith. And if it all goes wrong, there’s nothing you can do. I find it it incredibly liberating.

Very in awe of the gorgeousness too xxx

Yes, unfailingly when I see a plane taking off, I want to be on that flight too. To wherever it’s going. I don’t care about the destination.

And then, of course, I remember that I hate flying.

[Gorgeous new design, by the way. I am selfishly jealous of its beautiful minimalism]
