大家對於航空公司飛機師的印象，可能還停留在一些電視劇集的角色上，現實中我們比較常見都是空中服務員的出遊情報或照片吧？而除了近來都有介紹同樣是攝影師的飛機師，大眾對他們私人時間做什麼的認知都不算很多。32歲的 Maria Pettersson 則不是一位普通機師，除了喜歡玩瑜伽、還熱愛分享旅遊 / 生活、Instagram 上更有超過 23 萬粉絲，長年分享飛行時和周遊列國的生活，對一些人來說可說是「人生贏家」。

她的 Instagram 上都是一些常見的打卡式照片，例如食物、風景、與同事玩樂的照片，但是當背景都是駕駛艙時，對大眾來說還是很新鮮呢，而目她的照片風格統一，看得很舒服。

So happy with my new Paul Hewitt watch and matching Anchored bracelet, a bit of sailor to the flightdeck ?

Surround yourself with people who lift you up no matter what. Had such an amazing time catching up with these girls in Croatia a while back. I don’t think I’ve ever done so much in just five days even went on our first ever music festival ??? Thank you @flymeyoga for being the perfect host and @mariathepilot for being there ❤️ A photo posted by Maria (@pilotmaria) on Jul 27, 2016 at 10:29am PDT

After a long day flying with one of my fav Captains, scandies in the flightdeck ???? Yesterday took us to Milano and Berlin now back on sunny island ☀ Enjoy lazy Sunday all ❤️ A photo posted by Maria (@pilotmaria) on Aug 7, 2016 at 7:27am PDT

Only the dead fish follow the stream ??? If you follow the crowd you will go no longer than the crowd itself. Trust your own path and you will find yourself in places no one has ever been before. This picture remind me of one of my favourite movies all time “The Big Blue” ? what’s your favorite movie?

Woop Woop Italy is through! Next one vs Germany, I’ll be operating from Stansted that day,  anyone watching the game? I know, I’m not Italian but since Sweden is out I kinda feel like Italy is my second home (Spain I’m sorry, you have a special place in my heart after years living in Malaga ??) ? (only interesting for my European followers I guess ?) A photo posted by Maria (@pilotmaria) on Jun 27, 2016 at 11:42am PDT

? OMG I love to go though my Gopro pictures ?? Great crew accomplish great things together, everyday is better with people that makes you feel just a little bit crazier ?? These are the kind of colleagues and friends that makes me look forward going to work @claudio_crisanti @vale.cannata Antonella and Antonio (Please don’t go crazy saying we are unprofessional, we are parked on the ground here, no passengers onboard and just enjoying our coffee break ??)

The most difficult thing in flightdeck, getting that seat position right ?? One from the archives,  I’m back in the air again tomorrow after four days off,  is it OK to miss work from time to time? ?? A photo posted by Maria (@pilotmaria) on May 17, 2016 at 12:47am PDT

It’s my nameday,  congratulations to all Linnéas out there ?? Some find it strange that we celebrate namedays in Sweden,  I see it as a reason to eat cake, lots of cake ???

Turn left ten degrees. New heading 026 degrees.  Normally we fly way points, but every now and then ATC needs us on a heading for separation, or my favorite – when they give us  shortcut vectors ?? It’s all about getting there saftey and a great bonus to be early ⌚ A photo posted by Maria (@pilotmaria) on Mar 24, 2016 at 7:20am PDT

看出去的風景真美：

An other picture from last nights magical sky. Holding runway 25. I believe Fiumicino was hit by some pretty bad weather after this. Today I’m standby and home relaxing ?

不少網友都會感嘆這是「完美人生」，但在張張美好照片背後，又是不是真的那麼輕鬆簡單呢？別人成功的背後或者要付出巨大的努力，就如之前不少新聞，很多年輕女性為了能像這類人一樣，想表現到自己「好像過得很好」而在網上製造一個假像，其實是很累的，所以比起羨慕或模仿他人的人生，還是坦率地活著比較有趣吧。
