Back in 90's ,my elementary teacher once gave us a homework to write down on a paper our dream and what we want to be when we grow up, honestly I wanted to be "happy always" but she said that doesn't count :) because of course it's not possible. I thought for another dream except for being "happy always" and travelling the globe is the best! That would be very exciting, adventurous and very interesting job so I wrote to my homework paper that I want to be a Stewardess when I grow up (But u know, what we wanted when we were kids doesn't really come true when we grew up ^_^ especially if you are not financially capable of achieving it ). I was 21 when I first traveled abroad to work, it was fun, everything is new, I loved it. I had once an offer as a Stewardess after 2 years of working abroad but I screwed it up because I never thought I will ever be, I had a tattoo on my leg that became the reason why I didn't pass through to the training stage (I was a bit upset but its fine, I can still travel though not as much if I became a flight attendant).
