After being puked on by a kid in the war zone that is economy class, Humidbeing enjoyed his upgrade to business class on a flight from Dubai to Athens. Here's what he had to say about Greece:

  • "I woke up everyday with a smile pondering: WHY IS THE SKY SO BLUE ?"
  • "I was hoping to write something new about the place, like how awful it was. But I'd be lying my pants off."
  • "Had wine every morning because it was cheaper than coke light, yums!"
