Paris, Parisians, Smoothies, Ecology, Music.

We’ve redecorated the blog a little, and a new background has made it live as well as some tasteful ceiling lampshades, hope you enjoy them. We thinks it makes it a little more cosy. Tell us what you think in the comment section below !
Good to ride those heavy bikes again. I miss my green [...]

Taxi drivers don’t need no education

With Eric Prydz’s remix of Another Brick In The Wall blasting out of my stereo. I recall my last trip to Paris. I didn’t write anything straight after landing like I usually do because I was in a inspirational black hole. After reading some others blogs, I felt it was the right time to hit [...]

Welsh One Hit Wonder by MotherOfSodwee

This was her first encounter with what is commonly called a webcam. She had to do something stupid so Mother came up with this idea of doing an impression of a fallen welsh star that thinks she’s still making the top of the charts. With an unpronouncable name in mind she sets off into 4 [...]

Airboy does Paris…again.

This was my second Paris this month, and I have another one coming up. The crew on this one was exceptional. From the purser to the Grade 2s, we all had fun on-board. Both ways. Riccardo (Richard) managed to swap a flight to be on this CDG. And Juan, one of my flatmate Khalils friend [...]

Airboy does Paris

Blimey, it’s so nice to be back in the hood. Where I grew up. Nice to see Father, Mother and Brother all well and having a blast with their new toy : a blender. Mum’s enthusiasm about the machine is beyond belief. She’s so excited about making fresh pina coladas that she had to show [...]

Tu connais Colette ??!

In a moment of lucidity the other day, hoovering, I was thinking which tune could summarize the Parisian atmosphere best… I went through a lot of tracks and couldn’t find the perfect one. Until today. The only problem is that the track wasn’t made by Frenchies. But Belgians. A pair of amazing DJs named 2 [...]

Dub-Dub, I’m back !

Writing this piece from somewhere over Bulgaria and as far as internet goes, France and french airports in general are just an utter expensive joke. it’s pay pay pay everywhere for everything ! Coming over I was surprised to find that Dubai International had FREE WIFI. But my hopes went a little overboard with french [...]

In an attempt to educate the masses to good international tunes, to avoid mainstream MTV crap and so much more… With the help of social network FACEBOOK my fellow readers you can spread the love for amazing music by adding the Airboy’s Music Facebook Application which will display a neet MP3 player right in the [...]

I have 99 problems and the Velib’ ain’t one

I would of given an arm amd a leg (or maybe two) to be part of this picture. This was taken this past weekend during Jay-Z’s set at uber-fest Glastonbury, Amy Winehouse, Jack White & Beyonce TOGETHER, Having the best voice since Joplin, the most talented guitar player of the 21st century and the most [...]

DOWNLOADABLES #49 / From Paaarrreeeee

Still in Paris, haven’t gone anywhere else…yet. Loving up the very high-speed connexion we have at home to watch streamings of The Office, the American version of course as well as uploading you some tracks like this amazing cover of Little Wings originally by Jimi Hendrix here covered by Stevie Ray Vaughan & Double Trouble, [...]

I’m Parisien, I Love Rien.

This is a clipping I have been reading in the Emirates in-flight magazine whilst flying back home today. I really do think it pictures realistically our generation and it’s relationship with communicating and using social networks these days. It specifically is true as far as Airboy is concerned. The other day, my flatmate’s friend (Daniel) [...]

CDG who? CDG what ?

Hey just landed in Dub-Dub after an eventful layover in Paaarrrreee, my hometown. Started of in briefing where the crew was bubbling up their 24h stay in the capital of love. All smiles they were ! It’s crazy to realise that you lived and come from a town that everyone knows, that everyone wants to [...]

Fly, iron & fly again.

So. This month I’ve been rostered for french destinations thrice. Because every single flight must have a destination language speaker (does that make sense ?). It’s good. It means I get to go back home for a very short period of time, but for free. And I get payed for it too. The allowance in [...]

Major back-office shuffle, front end tweaks !

[As you've might of noticed, on the home page, you only see part of each post, this is to avoid having an overload/clutter of images and other content that takes really long to load,this will also greatly increase my page views, but you don't need to know that. To cut a long story short : [...]
