Greg here, based in Sydney, currently on the road 3-4 days per week - most of that in Asia Pacific with occasional trips back to headquarters in the USA.
IT consulting/single/neither a "boy nor a "boi"/lived and worked in UK and USA a lot of the past 15 years/love living back in my home town and I always try to schedule the Friday flight home to arrive at 1700.
Well there's more to me than the above but that'll do for starters (and I didn't list my FFP and Hotel Chain memberships - there really IS much more to me than those!).
cheers,
Greg.

Hi there,
Don here....living in beautiful Montreal (YUL). Originally from the mid-west of Canada.
I fly Air Canada whenever I can...or other members of Star Alliance. Member of Aeroplan.
I work for the Quebec government, analyst for arts and culture training, and I never fly for work. All my travel is for pleasure or family visits. I visit museums (particularily contemporary art), go to the symphony/ballet and do a lot of walking/hiking and people-watching when on vacation.
Try to get to Europe a couple of times per year and travel in Canada, USA and Mexico as well.

Ben here.
22 year old undergrad student in beautiful Olympia, WA. I am very much single. I am a quasi-hipster and am a bit of a music and film buff/snob. Stephin Merritt rocks my socks. I am of Ashkenazi Jewish extraction through and through (and fit into many of the stereotypes, both the good and the bad). Not really into the whole "scene" if you know what I mean. I'm a hopeless romantic, what can I say? I also make pretty electronic music (think Mum or Jonny Greenwood from Radiohead) on my laptop, which, if you're interested in hearing, you can PM me.
I am originally from NJ, so I pretty much exclusively fly CO. Sometimes AS if they're cheaper. I just started the art of the mileage run and will make Elite on CO for the first time on June 14th.
All of my travel is leisure, mostly going back and forth between SEA and EWR. I was one of the (lucky?) FTers that got in on the YYZ-LCA "deal", so I'm going to Europe later this year and the beginning of next, which will be my graduation present, as I graduate in December, but normally my travel is (unfortunately) confined to the US.
I'm planning to either do an Accelerated Advanced Nursing program or go for a PhD in biopsychology when I graduate. Well, that's about it.

Glad to have found this group in FT. Travel a lot (sometimes too much) for business, but usually enjoy it and always love coming home to Palm Springs.
On the road throughout the US, Canada, SJU and Europe.
I know a lot of you get to the desert, so I hope to hear of your travels here. Consider even coming mid-summer. The heat can be invigorating and awesome.

Anyone in LHR/AMS late June?

Hello all! Rob here; 26/male from NYC. I think I've posted in this thread in the past, but since I haven't been on FT in over a year (shame on me, I know), I figured it would be good to 'reintroduce' myself. I've just recently lost my SPG & AA Platinum statuses due to a job change, and I'm still mourning my losses!! Trying to make up for it by getting acquainted to NYC with my boyfriend -- we recently moved up from Baltimore (prior to that I was in NJ and BOS). I guess that's it ... looking forward to getting back into this!
