Insta envy: Ryanair pilot gives a peek into her glamorous lifestyle
A Dutch Ryanair pilot has been sharing some gorgeous snaps of her life as a professional globetrotter and they’re making us extremely jealous.
Two years ago, Michelle Gooris documented her first solo flight on Youtube.
The video has since ranked up almost two million views and the dutch beauty has earned herself over 20 thousand Instagram followers.
Speaking to The Mirror, Michelle admitted that she actually enjoys her job more than the holidays.
"People think from looking at my Instagram that I'm on holiday all time but it's not all about lying on beaches", she told The Mirror.
"Flying a passenger jet is hard work and takes a lot of concentration, after all, you have a lot of responsibility on your shoulders."
At just 19-years-old, Michelle entered into two years of training at CAE Aviation Academy and received her license upon completion.
Her grandfather was the one who suggested she apply for her aviation license. He had been a pilot and was keen to have Michelle follow in his footsteps.
Michelle told The Mirror she was grateful that her grandfather encouraged her to pursue a career in a typically male-dominated industry.
"It was once a man's world and although there are many female pilots today there are nowhere near enough.
"There needs to be more, in a manly environment we should show men that we can fly to.
"We can all achieve anything we want in life and I can't wait to see where else my job takes me."
Michelle’s Instagram feed is the perfect mix of work and play and to be honest, we’re thinking of making a career change.
