I’m ready to go (properly) on the road again. It feels like so long (the longest since I was about 16) since I’ve done longhaul. Thankfully I’ve managed to get a decent seat which always helps. Train at 7:15, breakfast in the lounge, drinks at the bar. How I’ve so missed this. I don’t like routine, but getting back to this routines feels so good !
