Friday Five: 5 things I have learned from traveling so much

Hi all! Linkup Friday!! Thanks to our amazing hostesses: the DC Trifecta Bloggers (Courtney from Eat Pray Run DC, Mar from Mar on the Run, and Cynthia from You Signed Up For What?!). 

As you have probably noticed, my blogging has been less than consistent! Maybe this is because of all of the traveling I have been doing so much traveling! Since April 12th, I have been on a plane every week for 8 straight weeks! Me and LAX are on BFF basis and it has been so crazy but amazing. 
  • April 12-April 19th-WDW for Star Wars
  • April 28th-May 2nd-Texas for my uncle's wedding
  • May 8th-May 11th-Orlando for Universal with the fam
  • May 19th-23rd-NYC for a wedding
  • May 27th-May 30th-Tempe for a nice and relaxing weekend!

All happy things but also so stressful. I basically unpack and repack. and all of this packing while still being in school and dealing with work things so it is always busy! I am excited to be back on Monday and not have to fly again until July! 

But here is what I learned:
  • I prefer Window seats. I got a few aisles seats and I noticed they had less room at your feet which I did not like. I also prefer a window for sleeping on red eyes. 
  • Carry on is so much easier when you have priority. I have priority boarding on 
  • Driving to LAX works for me. I started driving again to LAX and I find it so much easier than getting a ride. 
  • I love terminal 1 and 6 and hate 3. At LAX, Terminal 1 was redone and it is awesome (Southwest), and Terminal 6 is also redone (Delta). Terminal 3 (Virgin America) is not good as the set up is a circle. There is not much food and not many seats and security is a mess. 
  • Red eyes are getting tougher as I get older. I used to take red eyes and be okay with it, but now I struggle. I think I figured out it is not taking a nap early. In Orlando, I try and stay up and I think that is not working. In NYC, I was able to sleep right away and felt much better throughout the day.

How about everyone else? Anyone doing a lot of traveling lately?

Me Me ME! Do you see me raising my hand? I have been the queen of travel over the last few weeks or maybe even months! I think this is a great post idea and I may follow you and do one of my own! I don't fly so it would be completely different! :) Have a great weekend Juliana!

I much prefer aisle seats, but loathe red eyes because I have trouble sleeping on planes.

We've been doing a lot of traveling but most of it was via car.

I like exploring new places but the actual getting there sucks!
