Stray thoughts from 1 of the 50,000
About Me
For a long time, we were just another typical Washington, DC family: two policy-oriented jobs, two kids, and two cars. Out of the blue, my husband got a new assignment; we ditched the old jobs and the cars (but kept the kids) and headed to Paris for what started out to be a three-year, and eventually became a four-year tour.

That's a beauty.
Speaking of metro stops, what's the scariest one for you? I still have bad dreams about the one at Barbès — Rochechouart. It seems like I was always there at night, always alone with a couple of shady-looking characters, always on edge.
I like it mucho.
Amy: I'm a big fan of the metro and have only had good experiences. Well there was that one time when I was at Porte de la Villette, alone and after midnight, which was pretty creepy, as was the long, long correspondance at Stalingrad.
