Le Rendez-vous International du Carnet de Voyage, Clermont-Ferrand

 

Every mid-November it’s annual travel sketchbook time in Clermont-Ferrand.

I left early Saturday morning in pitch dark to catch the 7am train🚊from Bercy. I even left extra early 🙄 Still I got lost going out at the wrong metro exit. At last we arrived to a warm, sunny day - highly usually for normally freezing 🥶 Clermont-Ferrand in the Auvergne mountains.

I returned to the Salon du chocolat this morning (9:55 at opening time).
Mainly because I ate 😋 all the samples I collected to give my copyshop guy from opening night.

Sial Paris 2024 - Part 2

We went back to SIAL yesterday after a day of deep-induced sleep 💤 therapy,  cold showers & ice 🧊 bucket immersions. I don’t think it was enough…

Many more people attended on Monday. The scene at the RER Metro exit 🙀
