If you have followed this blog for a while, you have already seen a few photos of my hometown.
At the end of 2016, I needed to stay in Toulouse for six months to take care of family affairs. It gave me time to revisit my favorite areas and take many photos. I won't be back there for a few years after all...
When the series is over, I'm pretty sure you'll want to fly to Toulouse... 😉
