The view of a blue sky with white clouds out of an airplane window with the words 'How to entertain yourself during an airport layover.'

Have you ever been stuck at an airport for an uncomfortably long layover? I have and I can tell you that it royally sucks. So what should you do next time you find yourself in this situation?

Things to Do in Amsterdam title on Chasing Emma

What do you
think of when you think of Amsterdam? I confess that the only thing I actually knew about Amsterdam before I arrived was that you can consume marijuana at cafes and that there is a Red Light District. While I was vaguely aware of the canals and the bikes, these things were not what popped into my mind when I thought of the city. So what do yo do in Amsterdam besides getting high?

The hiking season in the NT is well and truely over and 'major sunburn while walking the 2 minutes to your car' has begun. #RedCentreNT #womenwhohike #traveloutbackauatralia #traveller #girlswhotravel #wearetravelgirls
The decent was certainly easier than the climb up! #RedCentreNT #womenwhohike #traveloutbackaust
I am so blessed to have so many friends all around the globe, but I am even more blessed when they come and visit. #traveloutbackauatralia #womenwhohike #climbingmountains #dothent #redcentre #adventure
Yesterday when my friend asked and if I wanted to climb Mt Gillen with him I agreed without thinking. But as 11pm approached and I was still wide awake I began to regret my instant agreement. I was not looking forward to a 5am start and steep inclines. I had a rough sleep since I kept waking up since I was nervous I'd miss my alarm. By 4:30am I'd accepted that I wouldn't get anymore sleep and resigned myself to staring at the ceiling and could already feel the tired-induced headache creeping in. Despite this, by 5:15 I was in the car with my friend and I couldn't remember why I didn't want to do the hike anymore. I had a great time and it just served as a reminder that we can get so comfortable in our routines, and it is these very routines that can trap you. Now I'm off to rest my poor legs!
Was lucky enough to meet the Queen and Prince Phillip in the red centre last week... jokes! They're original visit was back in 1963, and now be commemorated with these pretty poorly painted figurines. #inatagramhiatus #redcentre #redcentrent #traveloutbackaust #dothent
