I wouldn't change travel plans for next year based on Friday's events. It is not inherently a politically unstable area and what happened in Paris could have happened anywhere.
This. If I was going to start changing travel plans, I may as well also move to some place that is a less likely target for terrorist attacks.
Do you mean because of the police raids and suicide bomber? Did you change Paris-specific plans or just generally you are now feeling more cautious? I know you're pretty well-traveled and often go to Brazil, for example, so I don't imagine you as someone who would overreact to something like this, which is why I'm interested to know your thoughts.

The suicide bomber coupled with the Russian jet did me in. I don't have the nerve to make a flight to Europe now. I was going to head to Germany for a long weekend to see the Christmas Markets. I nixed those plans. I am not worried about someone messing with a plane headed to Brasil, and I am able to prepare for the phuckery in Rio. I need things to calm down a bit and then I will feel comfortable making the flight again.
Considering I am currently on a three week trip through Israel and Jordsn (left Sunday), I am going to go with no. To the dismay of my mom and MIL, we did not change our plans.

IDK. For now the plan is to keep the trips that we already have booked. A few hours before the attack in Paris, we were looking at hotels to spend a long weekend there in January. For now we are going to wait and see if we decide to book.

Ohh, I want gory details when you're back to reality. That's a dream trip for me!
