"I don't have roots, I just have wings," she includes. "My visa is stuck, I should take 10 flights a month on a normal. I load up planes like others utilize autos."

In any case, she doesn't appear to mind that she's "stuffed with a million things to do", truth be told, she appreciates it. "I am only a young lady doing my employment," she says.
