I was able to watch the turning over of power from President Hollande to now President Macron on Sunday. It was remarkable for it’s simplicity and elegance as opposed to the American Inauguration.
At the end, I felt privileged to have watched (albeit on television) and very hopeful for France.
I am retired from my first profession, am from Oakland, California, living in Paris, France since 2013. I love books, movies, and watching everyday life in Paris out my window. Please enjoy my musings as I grow into the author others say I am.
I am always open to thoughts and ideas from others about this blog. I like to write about Paris, about France, about the US as seen from France. About France that the US may or may not know.

Sara – just from my curiosity – are you now binational? Were you able to vote in the French elections to get President Macron in office? Can you still vote in the U. S. elections? I am still working on the genealogy project. Love to you, Susan
