- I have to agree with Pauline, as well. I have never subscribed to any english language, periodicals nor newspapers since we moved here 11 years ago. I have subscribed to a number of french ones, however, and it has been a tremendous help in learning the language Comfort Food for Expat, 05/07/2008 12:13
- How can you title this article "Magic Mud" and then subtitle a section "Scientific Proof?" Science is not magic.
I understand that this is just a cultural magazine. And it's interesting to read about and see photos of mud baths. But please refrain from giving medical advice. "That makes the immune system better." What does that mean? That is a meaningless statement. Say that fun mud baths reduce stress but don't just copy whatever's written on the brochure for the company you're doing PR for.

- This article was published 8 years (to the day!) after I arrived in London, where I stayed until late 2006, when I decided to go back HOME. The country where I was born, educated, worked (part-time and/or temporarily), and served in the military. I now regret having done so. After a 16-month job search, I finally got one, although part-time and temporary (as a customer service assistant for the summer Eurostar service in Avignon). In 16 months, I had 4 interviews (including the successful one and all below my qualifications)! Most of the times, I somehow "didn't fit the profile" they were after. On a side note, I have 2 Master's Degrees (1 in languages), I speak 3 languages (bilingual French-English and fluent Spanish) and spent almost 7 years in London (my last job being in a company in the City area dealing with shareholders from all over the world!). Do I think about going back to London? Pretty much all the time now. At least, I felt appreciated there.
