Zibby chats with memoirist and podcast host Glynnis MacNicol about I’M MOSTLY HERE TO ENJOY MYSELF, an intimate, powerful, jubilant, and triumphant travelog about the radically pleasurable time she spent in Paris after spending the height of the pandemic entirely alone in her NYC apartment. Glynnis describes her five weeks abroad, reflecting on the liberation and joy she rediscovered. She touches on her book’s themes: food, friendship, and physical intimacy—and challenges the societal expectations surrounding middle-aged women.
