Trip back home

Last summer
Summer holidays passed to quickly, i've had the most fun time when im at home with my family, with eid celebrations, my sister's birthdays, grandmas birthday..shopping, eating, sleeping ..i could not ask for more.

my trip home was even more fabulous and was not expected of..

we started our journey from Kursk to Moscow the usual way, by mashrut..we got to the airport, checked in our bags and boarded the plane to Dubai..

This time the layover was in Dubai's newest terminal, Terminal B, it was a bit smaller than terminal A but nevertheless magnificent..(every time i land in Dubai, its a different layout all over, i got lost countless times thinking it was like the old one, only to find out that it was a separate building all together from what i was usually used to..a.k.a Terminal A)

Since our transit was more than 4 hours we had a choice of different restaurants for our breakfast...naturally we chose the all-you-can -eat breakfast...it was delicious, it had not much choice but the sandwiches, bread, samosas were really wonderful

the choice of meals


was really hungry at that moment
some of the food we caught

  after breakfast we went to freshen up, then we had a walk through the terminal and we found a free costa vending machine, at first i was casually looking at what the people were doing there, and this Costa lady came up to me and said it was free, Costa was giving out free drinks!...it was 1/2 an hour before our next flight to Kuala Lumpur, we took the chance anyway

that's him figuring out what to order

the Latte being made


enjoying his fruits of labor
thats me trying to gulf down the latte as fast as possible, because our gate was calling

Just as we thought it could not get any better we were upgraded to Business class for the Moscow-Kuala Lumpur flight..i was ecstatic beyond words, both of us was upgraded .. a once in a lifetime opportunity, since we were only students and in tight budgets, we have never ever dream of getting into business class  
happiest person on earth!

our personalized mini bar

me trying not to be too excited

the personal tab

adjustable seats

His and hers complementary toileteries

found the mini bar, which i thought was the coolest thing

getting the opportunity, right before landing 


the whole experience was wonderful, i had the most comfortable sleep in an airplane yet, with the seat being able to be turned into a full size bed, and since i am only 149cm tall, i slept like a baby..
the food was however a bit disappointing, i was so used to having the economy class ones, which were a plate full of good food, however in business class you only had certain choices..
the service was 5/5..the attendants were really friendly and most of all, understanding..well you know, we were first timers and we wanted to document our journey and took pictures, but hey the other kids started to follow suit, the also started taking pictures (pssshh, riding in business class like a boss)

then the journey ended when we reached Kuala Lumpur, .. checked in to our final destinations which was to the opposite poles of Malaysia...
had our last meal together

and said our goodbyes .. -_-
