We’re so glad you found us! Who is Mr. AirbusDriver? We’re a husband and wife team with a shared love for travel and aviation.
“Oh captain, my captain…”
Omar is Mr. AirbusDriver. No, literally, he flies Airbus aircraft for his job as an airline pilot.
He grew up in the Middle East which gave him the opportunity to travel to nearby countries in Europe at an early age, inspiring his love of globe-trotting. In 1984, he moved to the United states to attend college and has never left.
While he has always been interested in aviation, it wasn’t until he took a “discovery flight” that he began taking steps to become a pilot. After flying lessons, he went on to become a flight instructor. Eventually, he moved on to work as an airline pilot, working his way from first officer to captain.

WHO IS MR. AIRBUSDRIVER?
Does that make me the first officer?
Survey says… Nope! I’m Bess, also known as “Mrs. AirbusDriver”. While I definitely do NOT fly airplanes, you may have surmised that I am the writer of this blog.
I am an artist, with a deep love for fiber art stemming from my childhood living on llama/angora rabbit and goat farm. Growing up, I would watch my mother harvest wool and process it, spin it into yarn and eventually weave or knit it into fabulous pieces of art.
Additionally, I’m an avid traveler, of course! I traveled to visit my aunt and uncle in England at age 12, and have never stopped exploring since. I also spent a year abroad in Germany for my junior year of high school and studied in Oslo, Norway, for a year in college. I love to explore cultures, and learn the language, traditions and foods of the people.
My travels influence everything about my own life; from my artwork, to the food I seek out and/or make, to the décor in my home… even to the creation of this blog! I like to live as vibrantly as possible, drawing from all the diverse beauty that is found on this awesome planet.
