Thanks to the MIT and Harvard clubs of Paris for inviting me to co-moderate their Election 2024 debate at Radio France with my france24 colleague Doug Herbert. 

I was one of the few people there without an Ivy League degree but they gave me a pass for the night ;)

Exactly four weeks before Election Day, the Democrats and Republicans Abroad representatives made their cases in front of an equally passionate audience.

Picasso x Paul Smith

I was unsure about a Paul Smith curation but this wonderful exhibit presents Picasso in a really fresh way. And so cool to experience it at night nearly alone at the opening, merci saraglieberman ♥️ 2023-03-06 17:48:45 Picasso x Paul Smith .. 204 -52% 6 -83%

My big little baby 🌸 🍃 

On maternity leave until September… soaking up time with the babes, pushing through the massive fatigue, and so thankful for the friends and family who are helping make taking care of two tiny humans manageable. 

If you’ve come to play with the girls, invited me out to lunch when I am dying for adult time, or even just asked questions and listened, thank you so very much.

Back to baby life with Emilia 💕 

Emilia James Albert arrived March 30th, coming into the world calmly and on her own terms. She’s a dream baby so far and her big sister is in love.

Thankful for wonderful French maternity care, three days in the hospital to bond and recover, and the laboring tub that looked like a giant Veuve champagne bucket (see 2nd photo).

Thank you for all the love, support and gifts — we are slowly adjusting to the hectic beauty that is two babies under two. 

P.S. Like her sister, missemiliaalbert now has her own account for family and friends. 2022-04-05 20:19:13 Back to baby life .. 508 +20% 45 +25%

Tomatoes and cantaloupe everyday. Spending a week in Luberon in central Provence to end the summer. Yes, Provence in August is crowded, but it is still beautiful and delicious and if you rent a pretty house you can live out your Beauty and the Beast fantasy ✨.

I was shocked this birthday weekend happened — I was convinced we would be in lockdown — but I’m so happy it did. Charming gîtes in the Japanese garden on the grounds of chateaudecourances pierresdhistoire let us be cozy and cook at home, and due to Covid we got to have the grounds all to ourselves without the normal visitors. And Bianca loved it, which is of course most important 💕 .

France is technically out of lockdown today, now under a nightly curfew instead. 

Still, there are no holiday parties and we will be skipping our usual Christmas spirit activities in an effort to stay safe.

A lot of people are feeling especially isolated. It doesn’t make it easier, but know you are not alone. Thank you to everyone who has reached out recently to check in — I will try to return the favor. 

Until we can hug and bises and laugh across the table again, let’s try to help each other through this. 💛 2020-12-15 21:42:55 France is techni.. 417 -2% 13 -64%
Thankful for the ability to spend 10 more years in France 🇫🇷 

Picked up my 10-year titre de séjour this morning. Because of the pandemic, the process took nearly a year, but now I don’t have to step inside the prefecture for a decade. 

It’s not the Thanksgiving morning I hoped I’d have, and I ache to be with my family and share my baby daughter with them during the holidays. But it does make France feel a little more like home and gives me something extra to be thankful for today.

Happy Thanksgiving to my fellow Americans here in Paris and a special thought for all of you, wherever you are, who aren’t able to go home this year.

And yes — I’ll be writing up my visa tips and experience on the blog soon so stay tuned!

Three years at the France 24 news desk! 

I hardly spoke French when I first started and struggled through each meeting and conversation in the makeup chair. I would come home exhausted every day for months. Proud of the progress I’ve made and new professional skills I’ve picked up. Also feeling lucky that a company here took a chance on me as an anchor and let me keep doing what I love (and in English).

*Shout out to my producer leptitpierrot for the sign and photo :)

Does early motherhood get easier? Since going back to work I feel pulled in all directions, not quite giving 100% anywhere. Undoubtedly the lockdown and coronavirus-related stress is making it harder, but I don’t see how moms do this longterm. 

What are your strategies? How do you create a routine when so much is out of your control right now? Taking it one day at a time, and would love to hear your advice. ❤️ 2020-11-09 22:40:31 Does early motherho.. 341 -19% 79 +119%
Stepping out of confinement to buy some groceries and take the bébé for a stroll. 🥬🥦

Some of you have written to ask why France is back in confinement and how I’m doing.

The short answer is that virus cases and deaths spiked back up to levels we saw in the spring. French hospitals are overcapacity again, so the government felt it had no choice in order to save lives. Everyone moved indoors to socialize with the colder weather and the situation got bad again fast.

I was really upset at first, mostly because I’ll spend Thanksgiving in lockdown instead of with my family, and it seems they will never meet my baby. But I’m tolerating this alright now. I will still go to work (press is considered “essential”) and for the moment Bianca’s crèche is open. I’m taking comfort in the fact that Bianca is none the wiser and if anything enjoys having papa around more. I’ll try to keep things as normal as possible for her until this all passes.

For me it is a lost family holiday and inconveniences — a small price to pay to keep people safe. For many others it is a bigger price, but unfortunately we got to the point where it was needed again. Please wear your masks and be careful this winter.

“When having a baby doesn’t mean potentially losing your job or spending all your savings, pregnancy isn’t as daunting of a decision.”

As an American, pregnancy and childbirth in France has opened my eyes to just how little support mothers in the U.S. get. It makes me sad and furious that my fellow American women don’t have the same right to the financial and physical safety I was allowed. 

Paid maternity leave and affordable childcare should not be a luxury. The rest of the industrialized world knows that — why not the U.S.?

Click the link in my profile for more on my experience and why American women and babies deserve social support too.

The bébé officially started at crèche (the French nursery system) today. This means that after five months this maman has time to meet friends, get a haircut and return to work! ☕️ 

I’m back in the anchor chair at France 24 this weekend (tune in 4-8pm Paris time) and am writing a personal essay about parental leave in France and how much it has opened my eyes as an American. 

Missing the little one but also happy to wear clothes without drool on them once again.

🇫🇷 FRENCH VISA POST 🇫🇷 

I am still waiting on my new 10 year residency visa, which was supposed to be done before I gave birth in May. Life had other plans as we well know.

I will be writing about the entire application experience whenever I finally have the carte in hand, but I went ahead and put together a guide to the TCF language test. The “test de connaissance du français” is required for a 10 year visa or to apply for nationality.
