Every time I get on a plane, I always head to the local airport magazine shop and pick up three magazines that have anything remotely to do with decoration, design or fashion. However, as plane rides have become a bit more common, and I keep picking up magazines even when I'm not travelling - I've run out of selection for this month! The upcoming 10 hour journey has me a bit scared that I'll be terribly bored. I'm not sure the plane has individual movie sets for each seat (yes I was spoiled with Air Canada?!?) and I have a problem with my eyes that makes it near impossible to watch a movie on a plane unless I'm directly in front of the large screen in the middle. So what can I bring to pass the time - Penguin publishing has the answer!
I was recently introduced to this amazing idea by friend backpacking around Europe. She had just picked up a few of classics (including Jane Eyre, Oliver Twist and Pride and Prejudice) for £2 a book. It's a simple green cover and it's not incredibly long lasting. But they are perfect for travel. Engrossing, flexible, light, fit in your handbag and will never cause a judging glance from your fellow passenger when you take it out.
