In Poland, the national army has been -for years- in charge of the national TSA at the airports. They are serious, effective, and no-nonsense. TBH, I rather deal with them than with the civil ones at CDG…

When I was first here in Zürich, I had a girlfriend who once turned up at my door wearing a fur coat with nothing underneath. I don’t know if it was mink or rabbit.
It was like attending one of those expensive buffet meals and not knowing where to start.

Thank God no fotos
Funny you should mention that; I’ve been trying to get a copy of the front-page picture of our uni newspaper, circa 1972. My gorgeous Swedish-Italian roommate, my rock-star-looking boyfriend with a mop of shining dark curls and silver leather suit, and I (wearing said sizzler) were photo’d walking arm-in-arm to an outdoor concert. I’d love to find it!
