Shout Out to Social Media, Meetup, and Bringing People Together

Sunday Funday! Mark had joined the social media site, Meetup, to see if there were any groups in Paris where we could meet nice people and do cool stuff. One of the most promising was the Paris Dog Walking Meetup.

After contacting the Event Host to ask if we could join them, despite the fact that our dog was back in the States, we were encouraged to come. They meet every Sunday at the Bois de Vincennes (the woods on the Eastern edge of Paris), and all responsible dog owners are welcome.

We had such fun meeting dogs and owners – French and Expats alike. It was great to have some exercise in the green, shady woods, watch the dogs play in the stream, and chat with people who all enjoy travel, love their dogs, and were glad to have us along. I even got to practice my French!
