Last weekend we went to Lille to watch Lou play for Italy in the Six Nations match…a last minute decision, after all it’s just one hour and 25 minutes by train from London…wasn’t expecting much of the city to be honest…which is probably the best state to be in to be surprised! It turns out the centre of Lille is beautiful, clean and elegant. We found a couple of very good spots for dinner and walked around (in the rain!) looking at all the gorgeous shops… I came back with some sourdough bread of course (I’m sorry, but nobody makes bread better than the French!!) and a few boxes of sardines😊
It really sums up the beauty of living and travelling in Europe❤️🇮🇹🇫🇷🚆🚂
