Last Day of 2012

I got to spend the last day of 2012 with my very dear friend. We had a lot of fun catching up, munching and not forgetting sledding in my backyard. I have to say I am not longer a sledding virgin!!! Oh and I am allergic to sewing machine.

With love, Samantha Brown

How She Got the “Best Job in the World”

Samantha‘s career as a television travel host happened by accident. A producer spotted her work in a commercial and recommended her to the Travel Channel in 1999 to audition for a new show being developed called “Great Vacation Homes”.

The audition almost did not happen… Samantha missed her first audition in Jacksonville, Florida after she failed to make a connecting flight. Thankfully It was rescheduled again for a week later. Her initial flight the second time was also delayed and Samantha had just five minutes to make her connecting flight. She sprinted to the gate and arrived 10 minutes after the final boarding call.

A sympathetic attendant encouraged Samantha to try to board the plane, so she continued her run on the tarmac toward the small 50 seater jet located about 100 feet away. A dispatcher interrupted her sprint, telling her it was too late to board.

Breaking down and through tears she told the dispatcher she had been waiting on tables for eight years hoping for a dream job like this. He relented, and told her only the flight’s pilot could overrule his decision. As the dispatcher boarded the plane and explained the situation to the cockpit, Samantha ran the 100 feet and positioned herself under the nose of the plane. She looked up at the captain, opened her arms pleadingly and shouted “PLEASE!!!!”

When the captain looked down and gave her the thumbs up she knew that she had the job. Samantha has always said she owes “the Best Job in the World” to that pilot giving her a chance on a runway.
