The BBC interviewed Julie for this article about the great French tradition of complaining. As writer Emily Monaco says: "After years of living in France, I was finally building intimacy with locals; I just hadn’t known I would have to complain so much to get there." Ha!

A Saudi newspaper announces a new French language edition. Why not? "We believe that French-speaking communities, regardless of their geographical locations, deserve to know more about us, from us and in their language."

“I have always loved the desert. One sits down on a desert sand dune, sees nothing, hears nothing. Yet through the silence something throbs, and gleams ... What makes the desert beautiful is that somewhere it hides a well.”
