Hui Jia, Air France, Using Chopsticks

No, I haven't joined a buddhist monastry in the foothills of mount Fuji. I have returned home.

Air France was a bizare experience, with serious indecision by both cabin crew and passengers on wether French Japanese or English was the best language to address me in. Though, air france definately wins the airplane food that is closest to edible award.

And finally, using chopsticks. Hold one chopstick firmly between a curved thumb and third finger. Hold the second chopstick between first and second finger. By moving the second chopstick (not the first) grab the noodles, pull upwards, spill vegetables and soup over you lap, curse quietly and ask for a knife and fork.

"Fuwuyuan, Wo bu keyi yong Quazi!"
