I have at least one blog reader who is a terror at letting me know when it’s time to post again or berates me (lovingly, I hope!) for letting too many days go by without posting.

So here’s something new, and hopefully not too terribly self-promoting: an interview by Sujatha Samy-Randy, a journalism student from France. We talked recently by telephone. Listening to her lovely French accent and soft timbre, I very much wanted to go to Europe–again.

You should come here, she said. You would like it.

I might never leave, I said.
