How do you think travel changes women? I think travel gives women courage and independence. These are traits that weren’t admired in women in the past, but travel has given us a lot of personal power and freedom. I think most women who travel don’t return home the same person, that is if they return home at all! What prompted you to write this book and share your experiences with dating in Paris? My experiences were so crazy that my initial motivation was to share them with other women. Any GGI reading this book will be able to relate to at least one of the stories. I think it’s common for women to regret some of our actions when we get caught of up in romantic moments. Instead of dwelling on them too much, we need to learn from them (not always easy to do!).
