I do weird stuff all the time. This is some of the weird stuff I do when traveling… keep in mind this is just a very small preview of all the super strange things I enjoy doing/eating when traveling. It’s just a head’s up in case you ever find yourself on a plane with me. K. Thanks.
Weird stuff I do when traveling…
1. Take bathroom selfies with my food. (The food isn’t a requirement for the selfie, just an added bonus?)
2. Bring a carryon bag full of healthy snacks like fruit, string cheese, nuts, veggies… maybe even entire bell peppers that I eat like an apple.
This was in my mini sweet peppers… they’re usually shaped like chilies, right? It just looks like a tiny bell pepper!! So cute!!
3. Get McDonald’s salad and swipe a few packets of salsa from whatever Mexican food place is in the airport to mix with it for extra flavor.
Then, proceed to shake it up and eat it while stretching out my IT Band. Apparently this looked uncomfortable because a lovely lil airport employee came to offer suggestions on places with tables to sit. He was one of those concierge customer service kinda people who help you with directions around the airport.
4. Take candy from strangers.
I didn’t just take it like steal it – a guy I was sitting next to offered me chocolate and I could not in good conscience turn it down.
5. Buy wifi on the plane and tweet “SNACKS ON A PLANE!!” every time I eat a snack (there’s a lot of them).
This is in reference to the movie “Snakes on a Plane” – which I haven’t seen, but still feel the need to tweet. No one thinks this is funny except me – but that’s how it goes.
6. Forget I already took a picture and take another one…
Flying from SoCal to Tampa makes for a long day! I didn’t realize I already had that super awesome bathroom selfie with McDonald’s. So classy.
7. Stop at two different fast food places on the way to my final destination because I needed french fries and a milkshake and hummus… the salad was a bonus.
8. Respond to comments and emails via voice text on my phone while waiting at the gate. But with all the noise around I have to put the phone super close to my mouth and I’m sure it looks very weird. I also voice text punctuation so I have my phone all the way up to my face I’m shouting – Yes comma Monday at 3 PM sounds good PERIOD Thank you exclamation point

When are you traveling next question mark
![Running Tip: Have Fun! 👟🎈😎 Running is a great way to get healthy and fit. Yes it's challenging. Sure if you're chasing down a PR or new goal = it's going to take a lot of hard work! And RUNNING can be FUN. How to make Running Fun: 1. Create a challenge for yourself with a reward at the end. 2. Challenge a friend to a lil competition - winner buys dinner. 3. Listen to a funny podcast or book. 4. 'Save' your favorite songs to listen to only while running. 5. Switch up your running route to somewhere you want to run (or somewhere near your fave donut place).🍩🙌🏻 6. Join a running club and make friends. *Chime in if you want to join the RER Run Club & I'll organize it!* 💯 7. Make the goal for your next run to have fun! 🎈👟🎈 Example: Set a timer on your phone for 15 minutes - don't wear your watch or pay attention to pace or distance. Run at your happy pace and enjoy the sights & sounds. Send gratitude out to the world that you're able to run. Turn back after 15 minutes. Stay at your happy pace & focus on the good things about running. Question: Are you in a running club or group irl? Why/ Why not? [Feel free to shout them out in case others are looking for a group.] @runeatrepeat @runeatrepeat - I planned on running with a group in LB this year since I'd be in the area, then covid came to town... so not right now.](https://runeatrepeat.com/wp-content/plugins/instagram-feed/img/placeholder.png)

Haha, taking sweets from strangers—that’s my BEST habit, I think. Even though, as a child, parents taught me not to do so. But Erika is already mature enough to decide on her own, LOL. Seriously, maybe it’s the only way a lovely stranger could start a small talk? I’m always open to take and give. Sharing is caring:)
P.S. I’m travelling to Cape Town this May.
I would gladly pay for wifi on the plane! I’d get so much work done. But the service isn’t available in Asia, even if you had a wad of cash… 🙁

Only foodie bloggers will understand bathroom selfies with food! Haha. I’m not judging you.
Snacks on a plane!!! That’s great! Next trip is next month to FL as well for a cruise! 🙂
SNACKS ON A PLANE! That just made me incredibly happy.
I’ve only traveled by plane twice (well 4 times since i have to come back) I love flying but just don’t get put much I guess.
I text punctuation also! I also cuss when Siri changes what I said… who does she think she is??? I suppose it’s partially my fault for not proof reading her transcript before hitting send. But honestly, sometimes she gets it totally wrong and it’s embarrassing. Whatcha gonna do? Right?
I am going to have to remember about nabbing hot sauce. I’m doing that!
Next trip is mid May. Can’t wait!
LOL, I text punctuation too! My kids call me such an old lady, but I’m sorry if I don’t have bionic thumbs like all the youngsters (how do they text so fast?!)
Don’t know how they do it. I’m all thumbs (lol) when I try to type my texts. I actually think I look kinda cool talking into my phone. 😮 Ha!
