I was going to travel from Stockholm, Sweden to Athens with Austrian Airlines and I had to change plane in Vienna. In Vienna I saw two Greek priests walking to the same aeroplane as I did. They had black beard and black robes and black hats. I thought to myself: I wonder who will sit beside them? I was amused by the thought. Well, you know by now that of course it was I who was seated together with the two priests. OK, this will be interesting....They were very kind and asked if I wanted to have the window seat. At take off the started to pray and well up in the air they started to speak to me. We became friends and I was invited to their monastery. When we were landing they also sang and prayed. I felt somehow a bit safer to have my new friends beside me. We waived goodbye and that was the last time I saw them.
