This article was published on French Girl in Seattle in 2014. It has been updated. Junior and I went to France, for another Paris visit. This year, like every single year since I moved to Seattle in 1996, I went back to Paris where I lived for 10 years before I became a French expat in the United States. Even if I am not a Parisian, this is the French city I know the most intimately. As soon as I land at Charles de Gaulle airport, everything starts feeling familiar.
