Returning to the busy hum of expatriate life is always a strange mix of emotions. One day you are walking through the lush green fields of your hometown, and the next, you are staring out at a wide desert horizon. After a beautiful vacation that stretched over 100 days back in Kerala, the time had finally come for me to return to Saudi soil. Thanks to standard procedures, the re-entry process was completely smooth and hassle-free. Before heading home on leave, I had already completed both doses of my vaccine in Saudi Arabia, which cleared up a lot of travel red tape. For this journey, I booked a ticket on a special charter flight arranged by Book My Trip Holidays for the United Nurses Association (UNA). What I initially expected to be a long, tiring, and boring flight turned out to be a surprisingly comfortable and deeply reflective journey.
