The LA Times

When I was deciding seven months ago whether it made sense (financially and otherwise) for me to go to France for the second time in four months, I decided that a good way to justify it was to write a travel story.  After getting ignored by Budget Travel, I pitched a story to the LA Times back in April, sent it in in July, and now, in November, it finally came out in last week’s Sunday edition. 

I was nervous writing this story because riding the train was so underwhelming both times, and I honestly wasn’t sure if it was even a worthy story anymore.  I remember calling CD in a panic on the train, worried because the French train that billed itself as a party train did NOT resemble anything remotely like a party.  Thank god for having the voice of reason on speed dial.

About

Blogging from my little corner of Seoul, Korea, where I'll be until next fall as a Fulbrighter. My stated research project concerns the experiences of young North Korean defectors in South Korea, but my personal goal is to eat my way through every type of street food. Also, I'd like to personally meet a couple that match-dresses. Say hi! ---Lilian lilee27 -- gmail
