June 20, 2022 – I’m having a hard time! I’m heading south for my travel review blog, Le Globe-téteux. Everything is paid for by the Dora-Dora Tourist Office, the Air Bête aviation company, the Cheapo 5-star hotel chain, the Soumort brand of alcoholic beverages, the Brûlez Égal sun lotion brand and the swimwear line. Small package. I just have to say that everything is fantastic. I feel like writing it right away! My first trip since the pandemic, it’s going to be MALAAAAAADE! I’m going to have my passport renewed, and that’s a start!!!!
June 21, 2022 – I’m in line at the passport office. There are people in TA! What is their problem, all these people!!?? Couldn’t have had their passport made during the pandemic!? Why wait until we finally have the right to travel!? Must be not organized not nearly!
June 23, 2022 – I am still at the passport office. I’ve been here for two days and two nights. Luckily I brought the crate of Soumort that I got for free.
June 24, 2022 – It shouldn’t have been very, very long. Have reached number 76 and I have 1077. Well, I’m going to spend Saint-Jean here. I’m going to ask Karine to bring me my guitar.
June 25, 2022 – Have reached number 128. Things are moving forward. We spent the night singing Mario Pelchat: “Traveling, I don’t like that, if it’s traveling without you. »
June 27, 2022 – I have my passport tab! It took a week!!! I’m so in sacrament, I look like my picture on it. I need to smile again for my stories of me packing my bags Full Pack, I owe Full Pack two posts. I CALM! A little visualization: tomorrow, I have both buttocks in the sand!
June 28, 2022, 3:30 p.m. – My Uber just dropped me off at the airport. There are a lot of people here! It looks like an emergency! Luckily I arrived two hours early.
June 28, 2022, 5:30 p.m. — I’m sitting in line. Not the tail of the plane, the tail of the tail. The flight was delayed. My Full Pack suitcases aren’t even checked in.
June 29, 2022 – Still in Dorval. I would have to get myself a pillow sponsorship. That’s not all, I have to work. Today, I was supposed to post three photos on the beach, in a Petit Paquet bathing suit. I have no choice, I’m going to put on my swimsuit here and take selfies. After all, we’re all lying on the ground, like at the beach, it’s just that there is no sand or water.
June 30, 2022 – Air Bête has just canceled my flight. Worse I can’t even get reimbursed, I didn’t pay for it. Leaving means dying a little, but not leaving means dying! What am I doing? I will try to get sponsored by Air Canada.
1er July 2022 – It worked! Air Canada hired me as an influencer. Except that right now, they don’t need influencers to influence the world to travel, they need influencers to influence the world to stay at home. I have to film myself going back home. I get my suitcases and I do this.
July 2, 2022 – I am still in Dorval. I’m waiting for my bags. It shouldn’t be too long.
July 3, 2022 – I have just learned that my suitcases have been returned to Dora-Dora. There are so many suitcases in the place that to clarify that, there are flights with just suitcases. My suitcase has just published, on Globe-têteux.ca, two photos of her on the beach of Dora-Dora, if you can go and like them, the gang! Thanks !
July 4, 2022 – Back home, after two weeks of vacation in line. I’m not toast at all. At least I can make a post to say that the Brûlez Égal cream protects full! It’s good to be back home! Finally, the confinement was pleasant!
