Whoever said “It’s not about the destination. It’s the journey” never flew on a long haul flight. Those flights can be painful, tiresome, jet-lagging, and not to mention absolutely boring despite whatever Disney movie is playing above you on the TV screen. As someone who has flown from Europe to the USA countless times, I’ve picked up some tips and tricks on flying long haul. Here are my tips.

Bring a scarf or jacket.

A scarf especially can act as a blanket or pillow during your long haul flight. Nowadays it’s becoming less common to have a blanket included on your flight, and sometimes the cabin doesn’t even have enough for everyone. The best advice is to bring something functional just in case because flights can get quite chilly. A relatively thick, large scarf will almost always do the job.

Pack a memory foam neck pillow.

Once again, you want to be comfortable on your flight and no matter if you’re in the window, aisle, or middle seat, a memory foam neck pillow will make it all the more comfortable and relaxing for you.

Tip: Some people are hesitant to pack a neck pillow because of space. But most neck pillows have a snap closure, meaning you can easily snap it onto your carry on handle or strap it to your personal item. When it doubt, you can always wear it around your neck. No shame.

Bring an eye mask for sleeping.

If you’re flying through the day, an eye mask will be extremely helpful in getting some relatively normal shut-eye. If you’re flying on a red eye flight, it’s less necessary, but honestly every little bit helps.

Put headphones and a portable charger in your personal item.

This one is crucial for keeping yourself entertained or productive. Headphones for jamming or listening to podcasts and a portable charger for keeping your mobile devices charged. Sometime flights have the USB port, but you can’t always count on them to be functioning… Yes, I’m serious. Pack headphones, a portable charger, and your cord just in case.

Download podcasts.

Fun, educational entertainment! Podcasts have become one of my favorite pastimes for flying. I just download a few interesting ones before my flight and enjoy them while I’m on board.

Pro Traveler Tip: If you’re traveling somewhere new, I love listening to podcasts about that country or location to start getting inspired and excited about my adventure. You could even download a couple of podcasts that teach you some essential words or phrases in your destination country, too!

El libro de la semana recomendado por El Libro en Blanco y Culturamanía es «Lo llamaban Moba» de Jesús Barranco Reyes

Esta semana Culturamanía y El Libro en Blanco les recomendamos: «Lo llamaban Moba», de Jesús Barranco Reyes, un libro que nos invita a hacer un viaje dentro de un viaje, a vivir una aventura única, y a reír y a sentir ternura y curiosidad, a partes iguales.

¿Dónde está el límite entre la realidad y la ficción¿ ?Existe tal distinción? Según algunas corrientes orientales, todo es una ilusión. Y al mejor estilo de Hogwarts, Tincos y sus amigos se preparan para hacer uso de sus talentos en un reino que se extiende en las tierras difusas de la web. En su caso, no hay varitas mágicas ni encantamientos, mas computadoras y videojuegos. Esa es la pasión del protagonista, un chico de 17 años, digno exponente de la Generación Gamer. Porque, los
Multiplayer Online Battle Arena, lejos de ser meros pasatiempos, son parte de su cotidianeidad y, a la vez, el campo para que demuestre su inteligencia, perspicacia y su sentido de la justicia.

Claro, esta afirmación solo es comprensible para quienes saben que, como en la vida misma, lo importante no es lo evidente. En el caso de Tincos y sus compañeros, jugar es solo un pretexto y un modo de atravesar la adolescencia y, con ello, de vivir el primer amor, la amistad, la camaradería y la vida escolar.

En «Lo llamaban Moba», Jesús Barranco Reyes abre una puerta a una dimensión paralela, que representa un antes y un después. Todo un rito de iniciación para el protagonista, quien, entre kills, retornos a la base e invocaciones a poderes mágicos, logra conocer valores como la solidaridad, el compañerismo, la compasión y la perseverancia. No en vano, el autor cita al pediatra y psicoanalista Donald Woods Winnicott quien afirmaba que <<Es en el juego y solo en el juego que el niño o el
adulto como individuos son capaces de ser creativos y de usar el total de su personalidad, y solo al ser creativo el individuo se descubre a si mismo>>.

Jesús Barranco Reyes es gamer a tiempo parcial y lector a tiempo completo. Durante el día se disfraza de ingeniero de montes en la isla de El Hierro, trabajando en proyectos de innovación y gestión de las emergencias. Dedica mucho más tiempo a pensar en videojuegos que a jugarlos y, ocasionalmente, teclea sobre ellos.

Crónica: Obús en el Taco Suena Rock Fest. Por Adrián Gómez

Oportunidad única. Sábado 12 desde las 17.00 horas, encima de casa y entrada libre. Resacado aun del show de Therapy Break, un servidor arrastra sus huesos hasta el polvorín. Viejos amigos y curiosos reencuentros. Tickets de birras 5 X 4, y buena música.

No es Woodstock pero casi. Está el barro y los servicios portátiles. Desfase metalhead y antiguos camaradas, que demonio, vamos de cabeza.

Nos metemos en faena con Doctor Yao. Cumplen, pero no matan. Pero calentaron al público hasta la llegada de Los Motores. Los gallegos lo dieron todo en un concierto sensacional, con inclusión de un cover de Frio incluido. Se acercaba la medianoche y la gente se multiplicaba. Un batería (bestia parda) se posiciona, al igual que el bajista, y aquello atruena. Paco Laguna primero y Fortu (con nuevo look) después, ascienden. Ellos dos son los únicos miembros originales que quedan de Obús. Como Tequila o Los Who.

Los trallazos bien ejecutados es marca de la casa, y Te visitará la muerte fue el primer aviso. Con Que te jodan (School,s out?)aquello explota. Nos lanzan directamente a La autopista. El vocalista demuestra sus tablas como un frontman afable y entregado, y el feedback con la audiencia es bestial. Olvidemos los Realities, ésta es la realidad (que se lo pregunten a Ozzy). El guitarrista se afila y nos preparamos…Va a estallar el obús…y así fue. La vorágine y la catarsis. Fortu invita al público a subirse al escenario, y lo peta (literal). Esta ronda la paga el. Vamos muy bien es el himno que cierra la velada.

¿Borrachos como cubas? Casi… un lujo y un placer. Con papas arrugadas o no, les esperamos de vuelta¡!
