Thursday, November 29, 2018 - Media personality Julie Gichuru has narrated her near death experience during a recent trip to Rwanda. Taking to Instagram, Julie revealed how the plane she was travelling in aborted landing twice due to bad weather. While other passengers were praying and getting ready for the worst, Julie reveals that she was not aware of what was happening because she had her earphones on listening to music. Flew from Nairobi to Kigali this afternoon. As we tried to land in Kigali it was overcast and raining so we aborted landing twice. This flight has taught me some key lessons.

1. I had earphones on, listening to music- loud, as I often do. I had no idea that we had two dangerous encouters. If we went down I would have been oblivious till the last few seconds. Being present in the moment is an important thing... Or, is it?

2. When we landed I realised just how serious the situation was. Others on the flight had been praying and doing all manner of things in alarm.

@john_seel actually recorded a goodbye video for his Mum! Yes, he did! ? (we want to watch it John ?) So sweet though ? ...and there I was, totally clueless.
Perspective is a fascinating thing.

2. Actually, if anything I was in great spirits while everyone else was panicking. Unaware of the aborted landings I did notice we were off course. This was terrain I had never seen before. I thought we had simply been redirected. I said to myself, 'sometimes in life it is so important to go off course, in going onto a less travelled path you see new things and learn so much more.'
