As we are facing a second lockdown, and although the fall season does not provide the light and the warmth we enjoyed so much last spring, we cannot say that we were taken by surprise to manage this restrained freedom.
To the daily necessary exercise, the meals to prepare and the load of work we have to accomplish, I do have additional ideas I would like to share with you:
NATIONAL MUSEUMS ARE ONLINE
A majority of great Museums are now available online. Le Centre Pompidou offers masterclasses and many exciting podcasts. Le Louvre Museum organizes online conferences… a whole new world of cultural e-learning is just a click away for anyone from home … you may even take a tour of Le Château de Versailles online…
