Several years ago, I had the incredible opportunity of working as a hostess for Virgin Atlantic Airways. During my four years with VA, I was given a once in a lifetime experience of traveling the world for work, while being a member of a innovative company that Sir Richard Branson founded. The memories I have during my time with VA are priceless, I not only was able to explore the world-it was a time in my life where I experienced a journey of self discovery. I was inspired to create a business and utilized the skills I learned to take a leap and become an entrepreneur. Virgin Atlantic is a dynamic company to work for and the pride I gained for VA continues today, the fundamentals I learned were instrumental in building the foundation for my holistic beauty therapy business. Sir Richard Branson exemplifies being a risk taker, innovator, leader, and visionary. He demonstrates that no matter how small or big your dreams are, that with determination and diligence anything is possible. Cheers to Sir Branson for being an inspiration to me, Bon Voyage Friends and countless people around the world.
Join Bon Voyage Friends as we share stories of travel and life adventures. The journey began over 10 years ago when Alpha Delta Pi sorority sisters, Diana and Monica traveled to Finland for a university conference. While dining at a Spanish restaurant in the tiny Finnish town of Porvoo-Borga, they came up with the idea to select a new destination each year for an annual holiday. Raising their glasses of sangria, the tradition began. Cheers!

Top 5 San Francisco Favs
I was inspired by our Adpi sorority sister Sharon Jacobs' weekend getaway to San Francisco. I got to visit this beautiful city every couple of months, during my hostey days with Virgin Atlantic.
My top 5 favourites were:
1. Cycle ride over the Golden Gate Bridge to Sausalito. We used to have lunch over looking the bay and then catch the ferry back. www.sausalito.org
2. Catch a cable car tour, it's the worlds last manually operated system.

3. Check out the sea lions on Pier 39, who have been in residence there since 1989.

4. Cruise over to Alcatraz Island and take a tour of the legendary prison.

Adventures ahead! Flying with Virgin Atlantic!
Flying with Virgin Atlantic is always an excellent travel choice. I learned about VA when Di first became a member of crew, she spent four years with the airline and was a fab ambassador for the company.
VA is the fav airline of BVF!! They go above and beyond to give passengers a wonderful experience. Plus, the airline has a great fleet, look at this Boeing 747 at London Gatwick Airport. Impressive!
The inflight entertainment gives passengers endless options ranging from TV shows to movies. You can even check out "Travel Trip Catcher" for reviews written by passengers on places to check out while you visit your destination or add your own suggestions.
For an added bonus, the views are amazing. This picture was taken 40,000 somewhere above the US, so fab!
The crew members are always friendly, hospitable, and awesome. Check out yesterday's Gatwick to Las Vegas VS043 crew, adding some cheer for the holiday season!
Thank you to the entire crew for a fabulous flight! Happy Holidays!!
