鈥榃hirlwind鈥� doesn鈥檛 begin to describe what days can be like on the road. To give you an insider鈥檚 perspective on the life of a recruiter, I thought I鈥檇 share my schedule for the day:

4:10 a.m. If you鈥檙e not an early riser, this is an awful time to be awake. Since I don鈥檛 sleep well the night before an early morning flight, I鈥檓 cranky and have a headache from lack of sleep and the high altitude I mentioned earlier. 鈥淚f only I liked coffee,鈥� is all I can think as I scramble around my hotel room in preparation for check-out.

4:36 a.m. I鈥檓 one of the first from our tour lining up for check-out. There鈥檚 last minute chaos as hotel staff run to rooms to ensure we鈥檝e not left anything behind, and Council of International Schools (CIS) participants hustle around the lobby to find their bus buddies before departing.

4:45 a.m. With everyone on the bus, we head to the airport. Our group is prompt 鈥� we know tardiness will only result in finding our own transportation to the aiport.

5:25 a.m. We arrive at the airport. One perk of group travel is having boarding passes pre-arranged. We drop off our bags off at the counter, take our tickets, and head for the gate.

5:50 a.m. No lines at security. Amazing! Especially considering the growing number of people milling about as the sun starts to shine on another day. I鈥檓 through the security scanner and on my way to gate 12.

6:02 a.m. Discuss responsibilities for an upcoming presentation with my CIS colleagues.

6:17 a.m. Stare off into space while waiting for our flight to board.

6:18 a.m. Eat breakfast. Continue staring.

7:35 a.m. We鈥檙e finally off to Cali 鈥� 45 minutes behind schedule 鈥� after sitting on the runway waiting for clearance to take off.

9:15 a.m. After a bumpy but pilipili漫画ful flight to Cali, we鈥檝e arrived at Colegio Colombo Britanico for another college fair. We have a quick bite to eat (gracious hosts!) and rush off to set up for our fair.

12:05 p.m. Great fair! Great students! Beautiful school! And now we鈥檙e off to our second fair of the day.
