Worktrip to Paris!
Feb. 4th, 2023 07:12 pmI would have been squeeing ahead of time, but I don't really want to advertise when I'm leaving my home;) At the end of January I went on another international businesstrip! I had a weeklong working-session in Paris, where I spent all days in a meeting-room having heated discussions with other geodata nerds \o/ It was brilliant:) We did get out of the room for lush lunches (the amount and quality comparible to my cruise trip!) but most hours of the day it was workworkwork.
In the evenings I had additional meetings, so there wasn't any time to explore the town. Luckily I got to see the Eiffeltower in the distance when I crossed the Seine on my walk to the meeting, which is how I at least knew I was in Paris, haha!

Fortunately, when I planned the trip I had thought we might need time on Saturday for additional meetings and I had booked the last train of the day to go home. After we managed to get our whole agenda done with the evening sessions, I had the whole Saturday to wander through Paris!
There are a few photos that summarize my workweek on my Instagram, but here's my full Paris experience!
( Trains, metros, walking and cycling in Paris! )
( DAY 7: A stroll (and a boatride) through Paris! )
Without giving away too much, I can say there will be more worktrips this year;) Keep watching this space if you want to travel along!
