My airport habits are similar... with the addition of this one: Once in the terminal, I open up a blank word document and put on some music. Whether I'm traveling from home to school or vice versa, it's the perfect neutral-zone to be reflective about my recent insights and experiences gleaned from that place, before they get clouded and mixed in with the experiences from my future destination. Oftentimes I refer to these musings when I start to long for and overglorify the place that's thousands of miles away. Beautifully written!
