Harriet Welty-Rochefort - Letter From Paris -
Harriet Welty Rochefort is the author of
"French Toast;
An American in Paris
Celebrates the Maddening Mysteries of the French", published by St. Martin's
Press in 1999. Some of the above column is excerpted from her forthcoming
book on the French and their food which will also be published by St.
Martin's Press this year. For more on the books and on intercultural
differences, visit Harriet and husband Philippe's personal Website at
http://perso.club-internet.fr/hwelty/
If you've had some funny, startling, satisfying, or dismaying
food experiences in France you'd like to share,
you may contact Harriet directly at
hwelty@club-internet.fr.
Paul Jensi - Paris Métro Etiquette -
In 1990 Paul quit his job in the United States and sold everything
he had in exchange for a one-way ticket to Europe and a train pass. Figuring
he would ride the rails until his money ran out, he voyaged through most
European capitals before marrying the first French girl he met and moving to
Paris in November of that year. Since then he published 123 articles and
posted 192 of his photographs during his one-year tenure as Chief English
writer at AOL France's Digital Paris Web site. His current goal of
walking on every street in the city has revealed not only the importance of
comfortable footwear but also the splendor of the city he calls his own
(despite copyright infringement laws). He currently rents himself out as a
guide and is working on ``Paris Misguided'', an unguide that will help him
spread this love around.
