UNESCO

Our young friends Evan and Janel, who live in Paris, are there while Janel is assigned to the US delegation to the United Nations Educational Scientific and Cultural Organization or UNESCO. This organization was founded in 1945 following two world wars as a way to build a lasting peace based on humanity's moral and intellectual solidarity. If you are very lucky you may have visited some of UNESCO's World Heritage Sites created to preserve history and culture throughout the world. That is just one of many projects and areas of emphasis supported by UNESCO.

The headquarters is located in Paris and it was here that we were having our lunch.





The food was wonderful. The chance to catch up with old friends and learn more about this great organization was even better. And I have to say that UNESCO has one of the best lunchroom views in the world.
