A farewell to Tours

With only one month left in Tours, I'm starting to think of and see all the things I'll miss when I'm gone. Most of all, I'll miss the people: I've made friends from across Europe and the world, and it's with sadness that I admit that I probably won't be seeing many of them again.

But I'll also miss the town. Now that there has been more sun, I'm exploring a bit more - being the sort of creature that prefers to hibernate through the winter. Here are just a few pictures of springtime in Tours.

A gorgeous and mostly abandoned building we stumbled across on a walk.

A quiet spot by the Loire.

The Hôtel de Ville and Jean Jaurès.

The Loire by night - a beautiful scene that inspired some serious awe to rush up within me.

And summer flowers in the pristine Jardin de Prébendes d'Oé, a park that is like a minuscule version of the town itself.

I'll miss all of these things and more, but I'm excited to rediscover London, and to travel through more of Europe.

Happy blogging and happier travelling!
