WTF?! Coping with B.O. and plastic airport chairs

Recently, I've spent a total of 25 hours in airports and 26 hours on airplanes. I wouldn't recommend this unless you're completely masochistic or enjoy having no control over your own destiny whatsoever. I want to start a support group for recovering travellers. We could petition for comfortable couches (gasp!) in airports rather than metal benches and plastic boothes taken straight outta the 70s. We could demand cheaper food and fewer delays. Ultimately, we could find the cure for jetlag cause the Airbourne is just not cutting it. Though most of the journey has been beyond hellacious i have to give a shout out to the people at China Air. If you must fly across an ocean, i beseech you to take this airline. Did you know they have interactive in-flight trivia now on planes? I also used this device to help me practice speaking Thai. Maybe i'm a dork but I thought the whole thing was cool. In fact, I was just as charmed by the gadgets as the 8-year old boy sitting in front of me. I especially felt cool when I helped him figure out how to use the controller. China air hooks you up with warm towels, slippers, free booze and awesome food. So now the adventure actually begins. More from chiang mai to come
