I have flirted with France all my life. I am a third generation Francophone, born in Paris who has continued this passionate love affair with everything French!

🌍 Global Colleagues, Clients, and Curious Minds — A New Way to Read My Work

In a world that’s always moving, I’ve taken a small but meaningful step: All my books are now available through a new platform called https://t.co/L0LYxnmKaq. This allows me to offer them at lower prices and make them easier to access for all readers, whether they're reading from Toronto, Tysons, Tbilisi, or Timbuktu.

The stories range from the heart of Africa to the cafés of Iberia, from fiction to food, from memory to mystery. If you've followed my journey through culture, travel, and international trade—or enjoy a good story paired with a good glass of wine—have a look. Whether in the boardroom, the airport lounge, or the café around the corner, I hope you’ll find something that resonates.

Thank you to those who’ve read and shared these works. For those just discovering them, welcome aboard.

Warm regards,
Richard

@Arya3344Arya It looks delicious! By the way, your primary photo looks awfully similar to Kowloon Bay. Is It? There's nothing better than opening the curtains and being visually rewarded. Bravo.

This captivating new book, the fifth in a series, is available on https://t.co/wWtmb5B17t. It takes readers on an unforgettable journey through the heart of Spain and Portugal, weaving together history, culture, and cuisine. Beginning in the Basque and Catalan regions of southern France, where culinary traditions transcend political borders, the adventure unfolds across the Iberian Peninsula, showcasing the resilience and richness of its people and food.
Experience the pulse of Barcelona, where history and modernity collide. Wander the breathtaking cliffs of Ronda, the hidden gem of Andalusia. Savor a seaside feast overlooking the Roman ruins of Baelo Claudia, where the echoes of Emperor Claudius still linger. In Madrid, follow in Hemingway's footsteps at the Plaza de Toros de Las Ventas, where bullfighting, literature, and history converge. And no Iberian journey would be complete without the fiery passion of Flamenco, a spectacle so electrifying it lingers long after the music fades.
Crossing into Lisbon, Portugal’s hilly capital, the past and present blend seamlessly along the banks of the Tagus River. The author paints the city in six vibrant scenes—spies and intrigue, moonlit memories, fado melodies, and unforgettable meals—each revealing a different facet of Lisbon’s soul. #travel, #Spain, #Portugal, #PortugalEspana

Holy shit. We were right... again.

Zelenskyy claims Ukraine only received $75 billion of the over $177B sent in aid.

Where. Did. The. Money. Go.

The American media will never share this. Make it viral!

Biden's legacy will have some blemishes, but I will always be grateful to him for destroying the Democratic Party and their winged monkeys in the fake news business.

INSANE! Kamala campaign advisor Lindy Li quits the Democrat Party: I don’t want to be part of this tent anymore. I don’t want to be part of this craziness. I want to be part of the team that treats me with common decency.

Li says she’s been the target of a smear and cancel campaign because she dared to ask questions about Kamala’s mismanagement of donor money that Li helped her raise.

Into the Heart of Darkness: This short story (https://t.co/G64MTnKUlk) is a compilation of vignettes recounting my experiences living in the Democratic Republic of the Congo. When we arrived, I was barely a teenager, hardly enthusiastic about being thrust into the very heart of Africa. Through these snapshots, I aim to evoke what it felt like to live in the Congo, surrounded by turbulence, violence, and a lingering sense of anxious uncertainty.
