 Deborah Heard is a world traveler, plain and simple. That's why I wasn't surprised when she decided to pack up and move to Paris for an extended vacation of three months...living in an apartment and enjoying the city à la facon francaise. Prissy Mag asked her to reflect back on her adventure here, and this is what she told us.

 Well, its over. A bit shorter than I thought, but I decided a few months ago that I would leave Paris as soon as my teaching was over. And mission accomplished. I read and I wrote. I lived in a new country and discovered a different approach to life, a different way of living with people, I published. I met writers and I drank coffee, smoked cigarettes and listened to the way the French spoke. I danced all night from Paris to Madrid. And there are things (like working!) to be done in the States while I would love to prolong my “toujours en vacances” in Paris.

 I'm devoting this month to my amazing flatmates: fellow language assistants, closest friends, and sometime annoyances...

 Quite frankly, there is no better time to be an American abroad than now. Of course, a part of me wished I was feeling the energy in Washington during Obama's inauguration but there is another part of me that absolutely loves the anonymity of being abroad; of hearing conversations on the metro about Obama or buying a newspaper with these faces as the new symbol of American power when no one knows I'm American or any of my more complex sentiments given his extraordinary rise.
