May I have your attention please, this is the final call for flight number 1028 to Riyadh…

Oh, the love of airports !.

The most important destination in traveling.

Why do you say? let me tell you.

Sunday morning 24th of Feb 2019, at 10 am, here I am sipping my iced caramel macchiato at King Abdulaziz international airport’s Starbucks, waiting for my flight to Riyadh for another Profoto workshop, looking at the different types of travelers.

One, the lost and have no idea what’s gonna happen but leaves it for fate, like the one sitting behind me.

Two, the businessmen, always in their most favorite suits, sunglasses, laptop, and of course the headphones.

Three, the I travel a lot but still get nervous each time I walk through that gate, yeah, that’s me!.

Four, the on a vacation big family, you can never miss them, all over the place mom, the tour guide dad, crying babies, and the aunt or uncle who just wants to be there.

And last but not least, the great survivors, the heroes in their families, the hard workers, the immigrants.

Yes, this is the airport, the bridge between experiences, the place where all the cultures meet, where you can find all types of people, and of course the final call for shopping before the plane.
