The Flying Mermaid ★



In the last post about Barcelona, ​​I promised that the next post would be entirely sacrificed to the realities of life in the capital of Catalonia, which has been my home for several months. 
I'm writing this text resting from the hot sun in the park of Sagrada Familia, looking at blooming, soothing pink roses and lush green palms, and I wish you that your day would be same good, wherever you are now. 
Recently, I spoke about this city in superlatives, I even wrote that I would gladly stay here permanently... So what impressed me here so much that I can't say any single bad word about it? Let me explain. 
Barcelona is an amazing city. The atmosphere is so light and joyful that you won't find another point like this in the world. Dance, music and singing on the streets, people grinning from ear to ear, joyful laughter of children carried by the wind... There is no chance not to get "infected" with it. Even when leaving the house in the nastiest mood possible, it's impossible not to feel better after a while. The climate is so crisp and pulsating with positive energy that it immediately puts a smile on your face and even the worst humor goes away. On the one hand, an idyll and on the other a mixture of hot blood and explosive temperaments. For me it's an environment in which I am like a kid in a candy store, because I don't belong to quiet and cold people, on the contrary, I don't really like the cold, numb atmosphere. 
In addition, Barcelona is a living work of art, walking down the street you can enjoy the eye at every step, it's really beautiful, cozy, and by the way you can feel this specific, artistic atmosphere every moment. And if it's still not enough, you can always visit one of the beaches and relax listening to the sea waves rhythmically hitting the shore.

Yes, I'm addicted to my job and I'm not afraid to admit it. 

Many people think that the work of the flight attendant is like a job like any other. However, no. Cabin crew is not a profession. It's a person, character and lifestyle. Being a flight attendant is giving your whole life to the sky, dedicating many aspects of your life and literally - living in the sky, even in your free time. 
For me it is the greatest passion, power and pure pleasure, which doesn't deserve a stiff and often stigmatizing name of work, because it is something much more, that brings experiences so beautiful and heavenly, in the literal sense of the word that no one who spends his life on earth can ever experience. 
My everyday life goes on in the sky and I am very proud and satisfied of it. I love my job that allows me to live in a different dimension, rise above the grays and (literally) rock in the clouds, seeing places I had never dreamed of before. Flying is my addiction, my drug, power and blood in my veins. There is no more beautiful profession that would bring so many spiritual, global and personal benefits. The aircraft is my flying home, which takes me wherever I have ever dreamed of being, and with each passing day following the spirit of aviation is becoming an increasing part of me. Isn't it wonderful to run to work with pleasure and finish it with a hunger and desire for more, when others from the first minute dream of finishing and returning home?

Surprise! 
Some time ago I moved to Barcelona. And although I didn't mention anything here, partially because it was a fresh and hot matter, partially because of lack of time, and partially simply because I was waiting for the right moment, now I decided that the right moment to whisper a few words about moving to the capital of Catalonia has just arrived. 
I just lived in Venice, and now... Barcelona?! Moving to Spain from Italy was a really difficult and demanding task, and above all a huge change in every sphere of my life. So why do I owe everything turned upside down and another move to the other end of Europe? Of course, the same thing that brought me to Venice, which is nothing but my wonderful flying work. 
What can I say about this city after a few months of stay? In fact, to describe my feelings for Barcelona, ​​only two words would be enough: Something amazing. You really can't find such a climate anywhere else in the world. And I don't write it because it's fair or because someone paid me for it. This city is really unique and if I had to choose my place to live permanently, apart from my Greek corner, it would definitely be the Queen of Catalonia. 
Why do I speak about Gaudi's city in superlatives and what is so wonderful about it that I would be able to stay here permanently? You'll find out in the next post!
