Bittersweet Marseille
It was September 2022 when my wife and I landed in Marseille for the first time and in a strange turn of events, less than 45 days later, I came to live in this city for almost 2 months.
I had never been to France before (I had only landed once in Paris catching α plane to Cuba). More about that in another post, where I'll describe the whole... French experience.
