    I'm exactly the same.. getting emotional when I witness a demonstration with loads of people up close, unexplained tears. It's all good. I almost cried when seeing a heap of police horses moving along the main street of Perth who were practicing for the G20 I think way back... It's a happy emotional I really believe

    ah i loved this video - so 'real' and raw; travel is exhausting so very happy you got an empty row after your jam packed flights to SA! hope you have a great time in Dubai. I'm also really interested in your process of booking hotels as I am very particular too - would love a video on this e.g how you go about assessing your requirements against the availability.

Now seeing you in my old country enjoying Woolworths Foods and bumping into the Mamelodi Sundowns supporters put a smile on my face. We just had icecream at Gelato Messina Fortitude Valley yesterday as this featured in one of your older videos. Feels like a full circle us enjoying your Australian recommendations and you enjoying South Africa =) (yes I know this video is older than a week, only managing to catch up now 🙂)

    I hope to get back to Dubai this year or next. But glad you're able to get a room at the hotel, similar thing happened to me when I was in another country. They told me my reservation was cancelled but I paid for it! My heart sank when the person at hotel told me that but thankfully they figured out and I got a room. Lol!

    • @travelforphoebe
      @travelforphoebe  10 месяцев назад

      It's a sickening feeling, right? Especially when it's a lot of money you've paid for it! I was so relieved when the guy sorted it out. Last thing you want after a long flight is to feel like you've gotta go to the mat over something!

    We flew from Miami to Dubai to Johannesburg when we met you. We flew business class, Emirates. Its amazing. We have flown Business class to the Maldives too. The Emirates lounge in Johannesburg is amazing, free champagne, filet mignon! And since we had a 9 hour layover in Dubai they gave us a free visa, transportation, a meal and a room at the JW Marriot Marquis. The second tallest hotel in the world! It was fantastic! Dubai is all lights and glamour! And if you get the chance, fly Emirates business class, its a whole different life! We flew first class on the way back to Miami, it was offered at a discount. Dom Perignon, caviar. I see you didn't like Emirates economy food. The business class and first class food was outstanding. Have fun Phoebe! Nancy and Bill

    Hiya! That emotional feeling when you saw the dancing at the airport is how I felt when I saw how happy the Jamaican people are. Don't be ashamed to show your emotions, it's what makes you real 🥹. I hate redeye flights, daylights are much easier to deal with and the window seat is worth much more as there's actually something to see outside, instead of darkness. I should fly the A380 sometime, it's a massive aircraft. At least you got a hotel when you came to Dubai. I went to Dubai once and I got a notification that my booking was cancelled at the moment I was on the runway and the pilot was accelerating to take off. Note to self: if you travel in december and you book in april, make sure you change your credit card details when the credit card expires in August. Learnt it the hard way 😅. Now here to know you experienced the same thing. My booking actually was cancelled and I booked another hotel on New Years Eve at the baggage belt at Dubai airport. Then when I got to the hotel it was overbooked, luckily that resulted in an upgrade from studio to two-bedroom apartment. Dubai hotels are outstanding in facilities. Thanks for sharing your Emirates and Dubai experience and have a great week ahead 🤙

    • @travelforphoebe
      @travelforphoebe  10 месяцев назад +1

      Thanks for the encouragement, Felix :) I'm trying to get better at being more open with my emotions. It was very unexpected when I had such a reaction to the people at the airport. Glad to know you've experienced the same thing! hahaha noooo getting that notification as the plane took off would've sent me into a spiral haha I don't know how you daelt with that! :)
