We Headed to Hong Kong and Thailand for Our Latest Photoshoot! Follow Us Along From the Beginning
It’s just after 1 a.m., and I’m settling into my biz-class seat on the non-stop flight from Toronto to Hong Kong on Cathay Pacific. Knowing I’ll be able to put my feet up for the next 14.5+ hours is the proverbial “game changer.” The glass of Deutz Brut Classic bubbles also helps, as does the Jurlique Rosewater Balancing Mist.
My eyes are as heavy as a velvet theatre curtain, but Lynn Chen, the inflight service manager, offers some seasoned advice: “Stay awake for at least four hours and then try to sleep for eight,” she says. “Have a little meal and a glass of wine and watch a movie. Relax.” I choose Call Me by Your Name, which is a rather racy flick to watch with strangers. I manage to stay awake until 3 a.m. (Sorry, Lynn!), but then I fall into a deep sleep.
Eight hours later, I slowly open my eyes and wipe them like a raccoon who has been woken from a deep slumber. During the night, an orchid has been placed in the holder in front of me. In China, orchids symbolize elegance and friendship. It seems I have a new flying friend.
