    Patricia writes on being an Expat:

    "... As the years went by, I also realized that the feeling of being foreign and other, transcends even race. You are not part of their (French) culture. It doesn't matter who you are or of what origin you are. You're either French (in your head and behavior), or not. When I began to see that, I began to identify myself as an expat. The sum of being an American who lives in Paris, an African-American trying to find roots here, minus not being French - but seeing life internationally - on a large scale and permanently, equals my personal experience of being an expat."

"Continuing To Feel Your Best: Using Chinese Medicine Techniques " Some Simple Tips. Auto-Massage Workshop Saturday 10 November. Complete Information below.

I had talked with Earl Ferguson about Chinese Traditional Medicine and ways to apply it to my daily life. He showed me some simple techniques that, right away, increased my energy and, IMPORTANTLY, relieved stress and anxiety. After attending the first workshop and regularly practicing the exercises that he taught me, I continued to experience an increased sense of well-being.. Earl will again briefly share some information (and techniques) and the philosophy behind them, in a simple way, that will help us all to work towards feeling better and enjoying life more. In order to really learn the techniques well, it requires working with Earl or attending the workshops.

Earl Ferguson, an Afro-American from New York City, has been a gymnastics and motion fitness coach for more than 27 years. He has lived in Paris for 25 years and has been featured in such publications as VSD, Vital, Karaté, Paris Match and Liaison Social. In so doing, we develop and foster our capacity to become more receptive to the life surrounding us. Earl is an avid student of Chinese Traditional Medicine.

    Patricia writes on being an Expat:



    "... As the years went by, I also realized that the feeling of being foreign and other, transcends even race. You are not part of their (French) culture. It doesn't matter who you are or of what origin you are. You're either French (in your head and behavior), or not. When I began to see that, I began to identify myself as an expat. The sum of being an American who lives in Paris, an African-American trying to find roots here, minus not being French - but seeing life internationally - on a large scale and permanently, equals my personal experience of being an expat."

  • Our Guest of Honor:
    Karen Heinrich
    Operator. Owner, NUIT BLANCHE TOURS
  • "PRACTICAL PARIS : Everything You Need to Know About Paris, But Didn't Know to Ask. "

Karen Henrich, Owner/Operator of Nuit Blanche Tours (www.nuitblanchetours.com), recently launched her guide book at Expatica expo at Carrousel de Louvre on Oct. 14th, with publisher Insider Paris Guides (www.InsiderParisGuides.com). Her book is titled Practical Paris, Everything You Need to Know About Paris, But Didn't Know to Ask. This popular book compiles all of the VITAL and PRACTICAL information that short and long-term visitors to Paris need to know: before, during and after they arrive. She's been told that even people who have been to Paris many times, or come on a regular basis, or even live in Paris, have learned new things from this guide, which goes far beyond traditional guidebooks! In her fun, informative presentation, Karen will take us through the Top Myths Visitors Have About Paris, Top 'Get-Over-It' Things, Paris Bargains (yes, there are many!) and How to Have a Local Experience. She will also be giving a fun give-away to one lucky recipient.

We'll definitely learn a lot of new things about Paris. I can't wait! - Patricia

    From Rosemary Flannery: ":I will talk about how I came to design my cards as an artist, with
    beautiful Paris as my inspiration, and then developed it into a small business.
    During this brief career my cards sold (and continue to sell at the moment) at
    the Hotel de Crillon, the American Embassy, musee Carnavalet, la Banque de
    l'Image, Open Bus Tour, as well as at the Librairie de France in NY and other
    venues. I was chosen as a panelist to speak at the Salon des Micro-entreprises
    for the Rendez-vous des Micro-entrepreneurs Anglo-Saxons at the Palais des
    Congres, Paris, in 2006. "
