I started this layover in sunny Tampa thinking, “I’m not even going to vlog this,” and then I saw the email about a massive Boston snowstorm. Next thing you know, I’m flying Tampa to Long Island to West Palm Beach… and the weather absolutely flips my whole week. My flight cancels, then the next one cancels too, and I end up with two full extra days in South Florida (and a surprise day three) instead of heading back to freezing Boston. This vlog is basically a love letter to making the most of travel surprises—especially when you’re a flight attendant and the plan changes every five minutes. I take you through what I ate (Naked Farmer, a nostalgic fried rice order, and a Whole Foods run), my caffeine-free era (10 days in, still powering through), and why I’m doing it for my cortisol/hormonal/adrenal health. The best part was getting picked up by friends from my old life in West Palm—Guanabanas, Worth Avenue, Ocean Boulevard, and all the memories that come with it. It turned into a little mini vacation I didn’t know I needed… right up until I got absolutely dumped on in the rain and had to pack a hotel room that looked like a clothing bomb went off.
