1. My morning routine depends on whether I have a trip or not. If I have a trip it is always different. If I don’t have a trip: I get up in the morning at 7:00 a.m., have breakfast, wake up the girls and take them to school. After this I start working at home (around 8:30 a.m.)
2. Yes, I think it’s important to have a routine. This way you can know the time you have to do something.
3. The worst morning I’ve ever had it was when I almost missed a flight due to a traffic jam (more than 1.5 hours on the highway). Luckily that day I went a long time in advance and the flight was delayed 15 minutes.
