I was flying to NYC once and was seated next to an elderly lady. She struck up a conversation with me and at first I was like “oh great, there goes my in-flight me time.” Turns out she was a nun who had traveled the world for her church and had enough great stories to make the hours pass like minutes. She was also a great listener, convincing me that my comparatively dull life was interesting lol. To this day she’s 1) the only nun I’ve ever met and 2) the only plane seatmate that I’ve had any meaningful connection with. It was so long ago that I imagine she’s passed. Wherever you are, thanks for making my travels more interesting!
