I still remember that time my face decided to stage a full-scale rebellion somewhere over the Atlantic. One moment, I’m minding my own business, trying to survive a 12-hour flight without losing my sanity—or my passport—and the next, I’m dealing with a breakout that could rival a volcanic eruption. It’s like my skin knew I …
I once found myself wedged in a tin can hurtling through the sky, staring down the gauntlet of that dreaded airborne outhouse.

I remember my first flight like it was yesterday—a chaotic blend of anxiety and naive optimism. I had armed myself with every first-time flyer guide I could find, thinking I’d emerge victorious.

I’ve spent more hours than I’d like to admit wedged in economy class, staring at the seatback in front of me.
