I wouldn't cancel my plans just cause of this attack. The chances of you dying in one are very low. In fact, you could probably get a good discount now on a holiday to France or an even better deal  would be a trip to Turkey. 

Eh, I'm still polishing my French, I can't wait till next year. Hopefully things get better.

And the problem is not only the chances of dying on such attacks... I know they are low. But a traumatized population + a police on alert + my last name being arabic = recipe for a tragedy. I won't risk it anytime soon. 

Yeah, the French are probably the most unfriendly people I've met, so you don't want to go if you're French isn't good! 

I agree with what your saying though. My name is Mohammed so I'm always worried I'll get pulled aside for questioning or something especially at airports. Luckily nothing has happened yet and I do a lot of travelling.
