I often need to travel for our job.
I spend a lot of time resting in airport terminals & on airplanes.
I sleep at hotels nearly as often as in our own bed. I have become much more aware of the importance of temperature & indoor air quality. I’ve found that the conditions inside the airport, the airplanes & hotels are respectfully uncomfortable & unpleasant. After a day of traveling, I usually suppose sleepy, congested & suffer from a headache. I’ve l earned to drink lots of water & also bring along a overcoat. The terminal is normally warm, & the air quality is bad. There are lots of unpleasant smells & insufficient humidity. I tend to get dehydrated & sneeze a lot. Once I board the plane, I start to shiver. Adjusting the overhead vent doesn’t help all that much. I normally have a layover, which means I got back to perspiring in the terminal. Then I freeze on another plane ride. I am blessed that I most often stay at nicer hotels. The accommodations include a heating & cooling component that I can adjust to our preference. However, I’m always suspicious of the cleanliness of the room. I am relieved when I finally arrive back home. It’s so nice to have access to a smart control unit, furnace & air conditioner. My house is equipped with a whole-house media air cleaner that traps microscopic contaminants, gets rid of aromas & keeps the house healthy & clean. I like our bed with the comfortable mattress, fluffy pillows & freshly laundered sheets.
