Yey! Tha's good. I don't even want to know what it feels like to travel to australia and have the jetlag..

If it were at all possible to arrive in either Europe or home in the evening, it wouldn't be an issue. I worked out I was awake for 53 hours, then expected to be able to sleep again after only being awake for about 8 hours Wish I was one of those people who could sleep in "cattle" class

The alternative would be to pay thousands more for first class or business class where they have actual beds and stuff. If I made so much money that I didn't know how to spend it, I totally would go first class.

I did the US (east coast) and I can tell you, it took me almost a week to get used to it. I'm a bit sensitive in those matters.

The worst was that I flew during the night, tried to sleep, but of course it was a short night. So at 5pm (CET) I went to sleep until the next day.

And TO the US, we left at 7.30am (CET) from Helmond, and arrived at midnight (ET) in Rochester (NY), making it a 24hrs day.

3hrs isn't that much to sleep. 8hrs is mroe decent, but difficult in a plane.

Yeah I can sleep on a train, but trains have space

Last year's so-called relief indeed was a nightmare Failed to mention to my boss that she couldn't touch type and therefore didn't do a great job, then decided to work in another position that needed to be filled just two weeks into my holiday (I was off for 7 weeks). The other chick didn't bother to show up half the time

Goodness that sounds horrible! Nothing worse than coming back from vacation to a desk full of work that no one did while you were gone.

Yay! I can imagine it's probably quite shitty from Australia to go just about anywhere.

not in holland during rush hour....
and I could still sleep

I can't sleep on planes either but its only about 36 hours of being awake for me.

Only if the train is a 'sleeper' - I am amazed I managed to get any sleep at all on the way to Cologne on the Metal Train.. The 'sleeper' ended up being a shared one with 4 other people (besides my bf) that I didn't know. Normally I would have been far too uncomfortable to sleep. Of course I had been up for almost the whole time we were at Wacken save a few hours here and there that I managed between the drunkenness around me LOL - so I was REALLY tired.

No. helmond-Schiphol-Toronto (ON)-Rochester (NY). Whereas the first and last part on the ground.
