Naked, Charles de Gaulle Airport, Paris, France

When I was told my connecting flight from Paris to Boston was cancelled, I suppose I wasn’t overly concerned. The news came to me as I transferred in Bangkok. My 8th flight in 7 days, I was happy this came at the end of my trip. The Air France transfer desk in Paris put me […]
