3 hours to check in and 3 more to takeoff. i swear this time i will not break my promise to myself to never fly again.



i have literally already been through two metal detrctors and had my bags xrayed twice today and i haven't evn checked in yet.

one for a shopping mall! second, just the arrivals lounge. still one more to go. when i get on the plane later on, i am going to close my eyes and totally pass out.

when i land, i will be in UAE and have to sit another 11h before my flight to Almaty. apparently they have sleep pods at the airport in UAE.

i am gonna take it really easy for a few days when i get to Bishkek.

honestly, after having my gear xrayed twice without even any really good reason, my feels that there is big trouble coming to europe was totally validated.

i am going somewhere nice and quiet and about as far away as you can go from anything of remotely strategic value.

the signs of imminent widespread war are absolutely unquestionable.

i hope everyone who doesn't want to get caught in the meatgrinder is already moving.

for now, anyhow, i am completely poopered. will be great to let myself fully rest.
