A Second Chance in Little Venice
Catherine was visiting Colmar for the first time. She was in her early 60s and loved to travel. As she walked by the pretty canals of "Little Venice," she admired the colorful houses and flowers.
Suddenly, she saw a man trying to take a photo. He looked a little lost. He was in his late 50s, with kind eyes and a friendly smile. "Excuse me," he said with a slight accent. "Could you please take a picture of me?"
Catherine smiled. "Of course," she said. She took his phone and snapped a photo of him with the charming canals in the background.
"Thank you very much," he said. "My name is Jean-Luc. I am visiting Colmar."
"It's a beautiful place," she replied. "I'm Catherine."
They started talking. They discovered they were both traveling alone and both loved art and history. Jean-Luc told Catherine he had always dreamed of visiting Colmar.
As they walked along the canals, they shared stories about their lives. They laughed a little and found they had a lot in common. The gentle flow of the water and the beauty around them created a peaceful atmosphere.
Later that day, Jean-Luc suggested a small boat ride on the canals. Catherine agreed. As the boat glided gently past the colorful houses, Jean-Luc looked at Catherine. "This is very nice," he said. "Would you perhaps like to have dinner with me tonight?"
Catherine's heart fluttered a little. It had been a long time since someone had asked her that. She smiled warmly. "Yes, Jean-Luc," she said. "I would like that very much."
In the fairytale setting of Colmar, surrounded by the charm of "Little Venice," Catherine and Jean-Luc found a surprising and lovely connection, proving that romance can blossom at any age.
Now you can do the QUIZ.
