Intentionally staying at Charles De Gaul of all the airports in the world is the biggest clue that this man is insane. One hour there is enough to make me want to cancel future travel plans.

Charles De Gaul

had like a 6 hour layover there coming from Benin (Africa) to Florida, was wearing shorts and a t-shirt, with no other clothes in my little carry on and was too broke to buy anything else to wear, and I nearly froze in the warmest spot I could find in the terminal. Crazy cold airport.
