Although I don't like waiting for the bus/train (or waiting in general) I enjoy the time of waiting at an airport terminal before departing .
Night flights are a great passion of mine. Sitting in an armchair, enclosed by (simulated) darkness and the monotonous yet strangely soothing sound of the aircraft engines generate a sense of timelessness and tranquility in me (I experience the same emotional effect while walking down carpeted corridors of noble hotels). Prefer more to listen than to speak but am able to hold smooth conversations (especially on topics of genuine interest).
