Next Stop: Paris, 1920

So here's my dream, I travel the globe, visit exotic places, meet poets, writers, politicians, economists, dreamers, thinkers & doers and have blissfully long conversations about art, literature, space, reality, physics and human nature. ...Y'know the stories they tell you about Paris in the 20's and 30's, how it was the center of the universe and there was an intermingling of the smartest and most creative people in the little french cafes by the Seine. I truly wish I was one of those people, a drifter with many freinds and the world as my backyard. The question is, how do I translate being a young "up and coming" corporate executive to world traveler with enough money to do everything she wants and then some. Thoughts anyone?
