There is a joy that comes from finding the oldest 140 metre × 140 metre square, Place des Vosges, in Paris. From being asked, through sign language, to take a photo of a group of people before the Panthéon. From finding Victor Hugo not at home for visitors (Maison de Victor Hugo is currently being renovated), but in a crypt beside Alexandre Dumas and Emile Zola, where Voltaire, Rousseau, Marie Curie, and others sleep beneath Foucault’s pendulum. Yes, there is joy!
