CAG on travel: Paris in the springtime




Since living in the UK, I’ve been to Paris three times and I realized the other night that all of my visits have been in spring. I’m starting to really crave another Paris trip, and I have been trying to organize it to coincide with a visit to the Pacific collections of the Musée du quai Branly.

I don’t even know what Paris is like in any other season, but springtime is such a beautiful time to visit. Sitting in the Jardin des Tuileries, eating too many macarons, and enjoying the general vibe of Paris is such a privilege (although I still think Paris is not the city of romance- just a cool city).

Please excuse the gratuitous daydreaming about travel, and the trip down memory lane…

P.S. Friends who let you spend half the day inside a museum looking at objects during a beautiful spring day are real friends!
