"sit in a plane and look down (if the weather allows you) on all the countries you are swooping over, "

It indicates that you fly down to a lower height and move quickly over those countries.

It’s a kind of lifestyle I like to live feel free at all the time avoid oppression.

Hello Everybody!
I never went on a cruise, but I would like to do it. Maybe I`ll do with my sister and her daugther. I just went to Mikonos (from Athens) on a big boat, but the trip was just like 5 hours of duration.

I loved the history!

Best,
Julianna
