With my best friend, Pa Kou, in front of the Arc de Triomphe, Paris, France. July 14, 2010.
Happy #Bastille Day, my #French fans!
5 years ago today, I flew in for my first ever performance in France. You made me fall in love with you all, and all day today, I will be celebrating YOU, my Hmoob Fabkis family & fans! Vous me manquez!
