*JANUARY-MARCH*
-------------
*APRIL*
In April, the locals of Roissy-en-France offered me food, liquid refreshment (water, beverage, alcoholic beverage, etc.), monies, baby lotion, sunscreen, hand wipes, magazine(s), shower room information/suggestions, and encouragement. *End result: food, a new pair of scissors [NOTE: In Cyprus, the SECURITY SCREENING-CHECKPOINT GURUS at the Larnaca International Airport 'felt threatened' by my ol' "Dollar Store" scissors, and subsequently trashed my "handy tools of the NEAT Backpacker trade."], and more tape
-ROISSY-EN-FRANCE, FRANCE-
*citizenM Paris Charles de Gaulle Airport [Hotel]: 1 ???Manager??? offered a hot beverage (in a "To-Go" cup), before asking me to leave the Hotel (because the Hotel food was only for REGISTERED GUESTS), also asked about my travel situation...I was approached soon after I entered the Dining Room area (to search for breakfast food)

***************REVERSE ALTRUISM:***************
*Premiere Classe Roissy Charles De Gaulle - Paris Nord (PN) 2 [Hotel]: 1 Hotel Staff Member (w/ a Co-worker, and Breakfast Room Worker) requested my departure from the Hotel, after demanding that I pay for the food (in response to a complaint from a Breakfast Room Worker)...while I finished off a cup of coffee in the Breakfast Room. Laughably, the Hotel Staff Member protested my free food "grab and go" actions, and shuttle bus hopping. According to them, the shuttle bus was not free, and always cost 5 Euros. I responded, by explaining that the shuttle bus WAS CERTAINLY FREE (for Travelers from the Airport), and that I rode the shuttle bus FOR FREE from the Roissypole Station (at the Airport). Besides, there were Airport shuttle signs (which all equaled Navette Gratuite [FREE SHUTTLE] for Travelers from the Airport) obviously posted along the shuttle bus routes. Since, I did not have the money to pay for the food, I simply stated, "Call the Police." Next, I explained the nature of my travel situation, and that I did not have the money (to pay for a piece of cake and cup of coffee). So, once again, I did not mind the notion of explaining to the Police that another Hotel in France just demanded Euros from a DESTITUTE TRAVELER FROM AMERICA; 1 Hotel Staff Member (the aforementioned), encountered before, [on another day] requested me to leave the Hotel...while I simply looked towards the breakfast food counter from the main entrance of the Breakfast Room
***************REVERSE ALTRUISM:***************
*Outside of Roissypole - Gare (Station) [Mixed-use Center] (an old center - UNDER CONSTRUCTION): 1 Keolis Bus Driver [w/ a shuttle bus], encountered many times before, denied me entry to a bus, and pranced around protesting loudly towards the other Bus Drivers about me (in strong French language w/ hand gestures)...while I attempted to enter a bus. [NOTE: Alas, the aforementioned Bus Driver has started a movement against me throughout the Keolis Bus System. I now notice that the "anti-'Backpacker from America' virus" has infected some of the other Bus Drivers, because they now seem more discriminatory (and distant), and drive away quickly when I approach their shuttle buses.]; Over 2 Keolis Bus Drivers [on separate occasions] denied me shuttle bus service [*FREE SHUTTLE BUS SERVICE!!!*]
***************REVERSE ALTRUISM:***************
*Novotel Paris Charles de Gaulle Airport [Hotel]: 1 Manager, encountered many times before, demanded my departure from the Hotel, before saying, "[If you are not a registered guest, please let this be] your one last time [at this hotel]! (Then, they moved one finger in the air.)," also inquired about my travel situation...while I stashed away some sweet treats picked up from a table in a vacant (session-less) Meeting Room area. [NOTE: A few minutes earlier, I noticed a young woman snooping around a Meeting Room area. So, I was not the only one, who took the liberty to lighten the victual load on a table in a vacant Meeting Room area. Anyhoo, at the start of my visit to the Hotel, I successfully picked up '2 dishes of potato chips' from the appetizer table in the Hotel Bar.]
***************REVERSE ALTRUISM:***************
*Novotel Convention & Wellness Roissy CDG [Hotel]: 1 ???Manager??? and 1 Hotel Staff Member requested my departure from the Hotel, after insisting that I pay for the food (by cash or by card), in response to a complaint from a Breakfast Room Worker...after I put together a plate of food in the Breakfast Room. [NOTE: Earlier, a Breakfast Room Worker requested a Hotel room number, while I put together a plate of food. I responded by explaining that I was just a visitor from the Airport. Then, they briskly walked away to flag down a Co-worker. Soon after, the aforementioned Hotel Staff Member requested a Hotel room number, and subsequently told me to put down the plate of food. Next, they escorted me towards the ???Manager???.]
***************REVERSE ALTRUISM:***************
*Golden Tulip Paris Aeroport CDG Villepinte [Hotel]: 1 ???Manager??? requested my departure from the Hotel, after insisting that I pay for the breakfast food...while I sat (w/ a cup of coffee) at a Dining Room table in the Breakfast Room. [NOTE: Earlier, a Breakfast Room Worker allowed me to get some food and beverage (w/ more "Time & Space" in the Breakfast Room), by saying, "I authorize you to get [a pastry here and a pastry there]," and showing me how to get a glass of orange juice.]; 1 ???Security Manager??? (w/ a Breakfast Room Worker), encountered many times before, [on another day] demanded my departure from the Hotel, after asking me to put down (leave) the food on a counter in the Breakfast Room...after I quickly picked up food (w/ a napkin) in the Breakfast Room
***************REVERSE ALTRUISM:***************
*pentahotel Paris CDG Airport [Hotel]: 1 ???Security Manager??? demanded me to leave the Hotel, after explaining that I was not allowed to walk through and get something to drink...while I enjoyed a nice cup of coffee in the Courtyard. [NOTE: It was somewhat unsettling, because the ???Security Manager??? ran across the Courtyard after me, while I calmly sat and enjoyed a nice cup of coffee.]; 2 Breakfast Room Workers [on separate occasions] requested my departure from the Hotel, after explaining that the breakfast food was only for Guests staying at the Hotel, after I picked up food in the Breakfast Room; 1 ???Hotel Staff Member??? [on another day] requested me to leave the Lobby entryway, after stating, "You can't stay here."...soon after I entered the Lobby entryway (to wait for the next Airport shuttle bus); 1 ???Security Manager???, encountered many times before, [on another day] demanded me to "leave the Hotel and never return," after saying, "!&?@#!#%&! (after speaking w/ strong French language) ...this is not a coffeehouse! ...this is a private residence. [Just] go to some other Hotel!"...while I stood and enjoyed a cup of coffee in the Lobby entryway
***************REVERSE ALTRUISM:***************
*El Al Israel Airlines Check-in Area/Terminal 2/Paris-Charles de Gaulle Airport (CDG) (a.k.a. Roissy Airport): 1 Security Guard requested me to leave the Check-in Area, after inquiring about my travel situation and "Protest/Demonstration" notepad (in hand)...while I sat and showcased my "Protest/Demonstration" notepad statement in a seating area. [NOTE: The "DUTY-FREE" effort was all in a day's "OBSERVABLE non-WORK," since it was a Sabbath Day. In fact, that specific day is known by Jews to be Shabbat HaGadol (the Great Shabbat), which is the Sabbath Day before Pesach (Passover). So, I got the ironic chance of a Sabbath-time, to witness JEWISH characters in a LABOR FORMATION towards Israel, on the "GREAT SABBATH" Holiday. :p ]
***************REVERSE ALTRUISM:***************
*Terminal 2 (an old section - UNDER CONSTRUCTION)/Paris-Charles de Gaulle Airport (CDG) (a.k.a. Roissy Airport): 1 Security Guard (w/ backup, and a dog [Canine] on a leash) demanded me to "take down the tent and exit the building," and repeatedly said, "Mademoiselle! [Come out of the tent.] They want you to go outside!"...while I slept inside my pitched tent on an upper-level landing in a stairway of an UNDER CONSTRUCTION section
***************REVERSE ALTRUISM:***************
*Mercure Paris Roissy CDG [Hotel]: 1 ???Security Guard??? demanded my departure from the Hotel, before quickly escorting me towards an exit door...soon after I entered the Lobby. [NOTE: The quick boot was shocking, because I'm usually only noticed by certain Hotel Staff Members and Breakfast Room Workers, when I walk away from the Breakfast Room w/ food in hand.]
*********************
*ibis Budget Roissy CDG PN 2 [Hotel]: 1 Guest (who spoke only in French) offered 'food & water' (i.e., a bag of chips, and bottled water), coins (i.e., spare change in Euros), and encouragement (???to continue promoting Jesus Christ???), after inquiring about my travel situation...while I used the FREE WiFi w/ my tablet at a Hotel computer desk. Initially, the Guest pointed out my "CONFESSION TOWARDS SALVATION" backpack sticker (i.e., the "I Keira Renae Johnson CONFESS that JESUS CHRIST is LORD GOD IN FLESH" handmade sticker statement) that was taped to the upper back area of my hiking backpack, and expressed support for the mentioning of Jesus Christ w/ a fist bump (a.k.a. a fist pound). Afterwards, they communicated w/ French language and hand gestures that they wanted to offer me food and water.

***************REVERSE ALTRUISM:***************
*Best Western Paris CDG Airport [Hotel]: 1 Manager and 1 Front Desk Worker called the Police on me, after insisting that I pay for the breakfast food (by cash or by card), in response to a complaint from a Breakfast Room Worker...after I finished off a plate of food (i.e., a plate of 'nice & hot sliced potatoes'-???Pommes Anna???) in the Breakfast Room. [NOTE: This was not the first time that the Breakfast Room CREW demanded "Euros for FOOD." On a previous day, another Breakfast Room Worker, encountered before, asked for a Hotel room number, and insisted that I pay for the breakfast food (???expecting that I would pay for the food at the front desk???).]; 2 Gendarmerie Police (Military Police - French Armed Forces) Officers requested my departure from the Hotel, and explained that I could not continue to get food for free from the Hotel, also inquired about my travel situation. During the encounter, I explained that I was still waiting for the Israeli Embassy in Paris to respond to my requests for aid (e.g., food, water, etc.) and deportation back to Israel w/ a notarized travel document, so that I could Expatriate and apply for Refugee status in Israel. 1 of the 2 Officers responded by suggesting that I just take the train from the Airport to the Embassy in Paris. Well, I explained that I did not have the money to pay for a train ticket (fare payment in Euros). Yet, they mentioned that I should explain my situation at the Train Station...to, perhaps, a Ticket Office Agent, and then just ride the train for FREE into Paris. [NOTE: Hmm, from what I recollect, a few PAF Officers (National Police) also suggested that I just ride the trains for FREE (???perhaps, while "bright-eyed and bushy-tailed"???). So, while I figure out how to get around the Railways, within the Railways, for FREE by the Railways...I'll just keep hope alive... :| ]

Roissy Airport) near Paris Aeroport Salon 200 [Airport Lounge]: 1 Paris Aeroport Lounge Employee [in work attire] offered 'food & water/beverage' (i.e., cheese, crackers, madelons [similar to madeleines], bottled water, and bottled juice)...while I used the FREE WiFi w/ my tablet in a seating area across from a Douanes et Droits Indirects (French Customs and Indirect Taxes-Duties) Office near an 'Employee Only' door of the Airport Lounge; 1 Paris Aeroport Lounge Employee [in work attire] [on another day] offered 'food & beverage' (i.e., madeleines, madelons, and bottled juice)...while I quietly sat in a seating area (after looking through the windows towards a rain shower outside).

*Outside of Suite Novotel Paris Roissy CDG [Hotel] (a.k.a. Novotel Suites): 1 Hotel Staff Member, encountered before, demanded me to leave the Hotel premises, after saying, "No! You cannot take a coffee (and took the cup of coffee out of my hand)... Let this be your ONE LAST TIME [emphasis added] here at this Hotel, or I'll call the Police!"...while I stood near an Outdoor Dining table in the Patio Dining Area (after stashing away food from the Breakfast Room). [NOTE: On a previous day, I attempted to put together a cup of coffee in the Breakfast Room, while I waited inside the Hotel for an Airport shuttle bus. The Hotel Staff Member noticed me in the Breakfast Room, and then explained that they could put together the cup of coffee for me at the Hotel Bar. After they handed me the cup of coffee (w/ a piece of candy on the side), they demanded that I pay for the cup of coffee (w/ Euros). Since, I did not have the money to pay for the cup of coffee, I placed down the cup of coffee on the Bar counter, and walked towards my hiking gear in the Lobby. Shockingly, the Hotel Staff Member did not appreciate my "moves towards coffee without Euros in hand," and repeatedly stated, "You cannot take coffee for free. It cost $$$ Euros!"]

Novotel Suites): 1 Hotel Staff Member requested my departure from the Hotel, after asking for a Hotel room number, and saying, "The breakfast food cost $$$... You cannot get breakfast for free. [But, you can take the plate with you, only this one time.]"...after I prepared a plate of food in the Breakfast Room. [NOTE: The "boot w/ food" was slightly providential, because it was my first meal of the day on the Easter Holiday. On a sad backward rising aside...it seems that Worldly Nations only allow Pagans, Idolaters, and Adulterous Fornicators to FREELY weasel in-and-out of Hotels towards food supplied, irregardless of their "ill-fated bellies and CURSED STATE OF AFFAIRS." So, who deserves to FREELY EAT of the EXCESS HARVEST (from fields and trees) FOR LIFE with GOOD-NATURED regularity? The answer is Keira Renae Johnson. :) :) :) ]

[NOTE: In the Breakfast Room, the ???Security Manager??? requested a Hotel room number, and my passport. Next, they escorted me into a smaller Dining Room in the Breakfast Room, and closed the door.

*Sheraton Paris Airport Hotel & Conference Centre [Hotel]/Terminal 2/Paris-Charles de Gaulle Airport (CDG) (a.k.a. Roissy Airport): Over 2 Breakfast Room Workers called the Police on me, after insisting that I pay for the breakfast food (by cash or by card), also inquired about my travel situation...after I finished off a plate of food in the Breakfast Room. While I prepared to leave the Hotel, 1 of the Breakfast Room Workers found me in a smaller Dining Room adjacent to the Breakfast Room, and insisted that I pay for the food at the front desk in the Breakfast Room. Next, at the front desk, a 2nd Breakfast Room Worker (???a Manager???) insisted that I pay for the food. Then, I handed them my prepaid card. After they swiped my card a few times w/ a card reader, they said that my card had insufficient funds. I responded by explaining that I did not have the money to pay for the food, because I'm a Christian Pilgrim-Backpacker from America, who was stranded at the Airport without food and money. Next, they requested my passport. So, in spite of my honesty (about my destitute travel situation), the 2nd Breakfast Room Worker still decided to call the Police on me; Over 2 #UNDISCLOSED#, 1 Security Guard, and Over 2 Hotel Staff Members (including the aforementioned 2nd Breakfast Room Worker) requested me to "leave the Hotel and never return," and 1 of the #UNDISCLOSED# warned me that I would be "sent straight to JAIL" if I'd return, also inquired about my 'travel situation & story.' Initially, the Security Guard and Hotel Staff Member looked at my passport (esp. the passport stamps), and asked some questions about my reasons for visiting the Hotel. I responded by describing my 'recent travel by airplane to Israel,' and 'current travel situation in France.' To be specific, I explained that my time in France had been dragged out, because I was still waiting on the U.S. and Israeli Embassies to respond favorably to my requests for aid and transport back to Israel (so that I could Expatriate). Eventually, the aforementioned 2nd Breakfast Room Worker, encountered earlier, inquired about the length of my stay in France, and said that I had less than a certain amount of days left in France (before I would be deported). Then, I responded, "Yes! There's a 3 month (90 day) [visa-free access period before I'm deported away from France]." (NOTE: During the "visa-free access period," foreign travelers are allowed 90 days of 'stay & travel' in the Schengen Areas of Europe [including France]. So, I was allowed to freely travel in France and other Schengen Areas of Europe for 90 days without any special visa.) Later, a few #UNDISCLOSED# requested more information about my travel situation. Lastly, 1 of the #UNDISCLOSED# explained that the food was not free in the Breakfast Room, and warned that I would be "sent straight to JAIL" if I'd return to the Hotel.

Initially, the Hotel Staff Member requested a Hotel room number. I responded, "I don't have a room number. I'm from the Airport." Then, they said that I had to pay for the breakfast food. I explained that I didn't have Euros. So, they inquired further about my travel situation and story. I responded by explaining that I'm a Traveler from America, who has been stranded at the Paris Airport for over 3 months. Next, I described my recent travel by airplane to Israel. To be specific, I explained that the Immigration Office at the Tel Aviv Airport sent me back to the Paris Airport, after determining that I did not have enough money to remain in Israel. Lastly, the Hotel Staff Member offered me the food and beverage w/o charge, after hearing me explain that I was denied entry into Israel because of limited money.

(who spoke mostly in French) (w/ a vehicle) said that I could not stay (w/ my hiking gear) just outside of the building, and warned that the Airport Lounge was "FORBIDDEN" for me. Soon after, an #UNDISCLOSED# exited the Airport Lounge, and also said that I was not allowed to enter the building. Then, the #UNDISCLOSED# explained that I could not leave my hiking gear just outside of the building. I responded by explaining that I just wanted to 'quickly go in (the Airport Lounge)' and request hot water for a coffee/cappuccino cup that was recently offered by one of the Lounge Employees. Next, the #UNDISCLOSED# inquired about my travel situation. So, I responded by describing my 'recent travel by airplane to Israel,' and 'current travel situation in France.' Then, the #UNDISCLOSED# suggested that I should visit the Embassy in Paris. I responded by explaining that 'I already contacted (by email and by phone) the U.S. and Israeli Embassies in Paris,' and I'm currently waiting for the Embassies to respond favorably to my requests for aid and transport back to Israel (so that I can Expatriate).

Roissy Airport): 1 Ticket Office Agent relayed a verbal BAN/BAR from El Al Israel Airlines and cancelled my flight ticket (airfare to Israel), in response to a complaint from a Passenger Service Agent and Security Guard about my attempt to travel to Israel without a return ticket, also inquired about my travel situation...after I attempted to enter the Baggage Check-in line (w/ my hiking backpack and quilted duffel bag on my luggage cart). [NOTE: The embarrassing situation was set in motion, after an old ???Jewish Woman??? acted surprisingly very aware and concerned about my tote bag that I briefly placed near a seat in a seating area where they were sitting, and subsequently alerted a Passenger Service Agent about my tote bag. To my dismay, the Passenger Service Agent then proceeded to increasingly inquire about the details of my travel situation, and subsequently requested to see my travel documents (including my passport). Strangely, the Passenger Service Agent passed around my passport to over 5 other Passenger Service Agents, who then inspected and discussed my passport pages out loud. *SO...THE NON-MESSIANIC JEWS ARE SOOOO...TYPICAL, THESE DAYS* SEE THE FOLLOWING Biblical passages: Matthew 23:37-39; Luke 13:34-35; 1 Thessalonians 2:15-16. In spite of everything, at least I got to experience another "glimmer of hope" w/ another 1-way ticket to Israel--a ticket that was surprisingly purchased w/ my PayPal account (connected to an old Bank Account) by happenstance. To be specific, the flight was successfully booked (purchased), though I simply visited the El Al website to briefly look-over the flight booking system.]

This hotel is for registered guests. [Please] don't come back [to this hotel]."...while I waited to speak w/ the Hotel Operations Manager in the Lobby. [NOTE: On a previous day, the Hotel Operations Manager encountered me in the Lobby, while I enjoyed a cup of coffee (from a coffee/cappuccino machine).

Next, they inquired about my travel situation, and asked, "What can we do to help you?" I responded by explaining that I seek food everyday and could benefit from the leftover breakfast food offered in the Breakfast Room. So, I suggested that they set aside any leftovers from the breakfast period, so that I could pick up the food at a certain time. Lastly, they said that they would follow up w/ me about the leftover food suggestion, after they speak w/ the General Manager.]; 1 Hotel General Manager, encountered before, [on another day] requested me to once again "leave the Hotel and never return," by saying, "You can't stay here... You should just call the Police for help. [But, you can't stay here.]"...while I waited for the next Airport shuttle bus in the Lobby entryway

The Assistant Manager explained that they saw me before, and told me to stop stealing food. I responded, "Well, I'm hungry. I'm [a Foreigner] from the Airport." [NOTE: Since, I had a late exit from my tent because of rain showers, my daily food search activities were significantly delayed. So, at that point, the bread was my only "food of the day."]

[NOTE: The charitable offering was fairly unexpected, because the Non-Messianic Jews of El Al NEVER OFFER ME CHARITY! So, I'm rarely offered charity in the hallway area directly-right outside of the El Al Check-in Area. Yet, I was often offered charity at the far end of that same (aforementioned) hallway near the Airport Lounge. *ISN'T IT IRONIC...DON'T YOU THINK...A LITTLE TOO IRONIC...YEAH, I REALLY DO THINK!...IT'S LIKE SITTING (lounging) AS A CHRISTIAN NEAR THE JEWISH PEOPLE EVERYDAY, BUT THE NON-MESSIANIC JEWS OF EL AL ISRAEL AIRLINES ALREADY BANNED/BARRED ME FROM FLYING AWAY (to the above) SIMILARLY*]

[NOTE: Alas, my Food "Grab and Go" reputation had moved/past the surveillance out-of-the-bubble/box, about the hungry just roaming for needful replenishment among a market of excess plagued by stingy characters, who were hell-bent to stand firm over prepared edibles put away for garbage bags more than hungry bellies. *SIGH* Usually, when I visit the Hotel and go straight to the Breakfast Room for food, the Breakfast Room Workers quickly approach me from the front desk, and request payment (over 26 Euros worth of payment) for some simple-dimple breakfast buffet fodder (i.e., the only food that I can handle--the basic plate without the meat). :p ]

Initially, the Front Desk Worker spoke w/ a Breakfast Room Worker in French language. Next, they requested payment for the breakfast food. I responded by explaining that I didn't have the money to pay for the food, because I'm a Pilgrim Backpacker-Traveler (from America), who has been stranded at the Paris Airport for the past few months w/o food and money. Then, the Front Desk Worker explained that the food was not free in the Hotel Restaurant (a.k.a. the Breakfast Room), and stated that I should not return to the Hotel (???without a room reservation and money to pay for food in the Restaurant???).

Once again, the Manager explained that the Breakfast Room was only for Hotel Guests, and "off-limits for [me]." I responded by explaining that a Breakfast Room Worker (who offered me food before) gave me the go ahead to select my own food from the breakfast food counter. In spite of my response, the Manager reiterated that I was not allowed--ever again--to enter the Breakfast Room.

I responded, "I don't have a room number [and food ticket]. I'm from the Airport. For the past few months, I've visited this hotel [and other hotels] for food. This is what I do [everyday to get food]."

The Breakfast Room Worker made a point to remind me that they would call the Police, if I remained inside the Breakfast Room. I responded, "Please, call the Police. That'll help me to get more food." In spite of my response, the Breakfast Room Worker continued to dismiss my 'English words,' while they escorted me out of the Breakfast Room. [NOTE: The Breakfast Room Worker only noticed me, after a 2nd Breakfast Room Worker walked over to my table w/ a hospitable (considerate) outlook (*AMUSED*... :) ). Since, the 2nd Breakfast Room Worker was a new face (i.e., a new hire), it seemed that the Breakfast Room Workers were in a training session. Nevertheless, this time, I successfully entered the Breakfast Room, and prepared a few plates of food, while obviously on the lookout for my hiking gear through the windows of the Breakfast Room. Coincidentally, I could have finished off my food at an inconspicuous corner table (near the back of the Dining Room), yet I had to keep an eye on my hiking gear that was left in the Outdoor Patio Grill Area.

With that in mind, I just stayed put and waited for the next bus on an outdoor bench just outside of the Hotel.
