Congrats!!! Loved the article. I've often fantasized about moving to Europe after living there (mostly in Norway; a few months in Germany) about 15 years ago. I think you did a great job of being sympathetic but also kindly exposing the Mother Euro ladies as kind of vapid lol. The comments are a hoot but it's for sure a good idea for the author to never read them!

I was excited to see your article at the top of NY Mag this morning and then even more excited when I saw your name attached to it! It was really great!

Die, My Love... I really wanted to read it before the movie came out, but I couldn't get through it, which is saying a lot because it's extremely short. It felt very dense and too stream-of-consciousness for me. I'm interested to see how they adapted it for the film.
