Oh this thing? Yeah, it's still in Paris. It'll be waiting for you. The new normal is settling in, slowly, but we're feeling hopeful about travel in the coming months. Is anyone out there planning a trip to Paris soon? We'd love to hear from you!

Remember what it was like to visit a museum in Paris? Well they're gradually coming back! Little by little, Paris is opening up, but patience is still the name of the game for most of you. We'll get there together soon enough!

Paris is waiting for you, don't worry. And with Mayor Anne Hidalgo reflected, it'll be even greener and lovelier to stroll through than ever before!
