Airports

They say that you perceive things differently as you grow older and most of the time these perceptions change due to an external force.

Growing up, my perception of airports was somewhat traumatic. My dad worked as a seaman for more than half of my life; eight to 10-month contracts on-board with two months vacation on a regular basis for 17 years. I also have several relatives in Australia that I only got to see only once or twice – if at all. Having these people surround me during my childhood exposed me to frequent airport visits.
