After an unexpectedly long absence from France (almost 6 months), I made it back to Paris just in time for the French Open. This is one of my favourite events in Europe and was lucky enough to have great weather these last two days to enjoy the centre court action.

Now that I’m back I’ll be updating the blog more often with posts about things to do in Paris and travelling in Europe.
