		</div><p>The French way of life is set to largely resume next week, with most virus-related restrictions easing as the country prepares for the summer holiday season amid the pandemic.</p>
<p>In a speech on Thursday, Prime Minister Edouard Philippe promised that “<i>freedom will, at last, again become the rule</i>”.</p>
<p>France is one of the world’s hardest-hit countries by coronavirus and was under strict lockdown for two months before starting to ease restrictions on May 11.</p>
<p>Authorities have reported at least 28,596 Covid-19-related deaths.</p>
<p>From June 2, restaurants and cafes will reopen, together with monuments and museums, concert halls and theatres, beaches, campsites, gyms and public swimming pools.</p>
<p>There is a notable exception for the Paris region, the country’s worst-affected by the virus, where many facilities will have to wait until June 22 to reopen.</p>
<p>Mr Philippe said the French are yearning for cafes and restaurants to reopen, noting that these “<i>are part of our art of living</i>”.</p>
<p>Diners will be no more than 10 to a table, with at least one metre separating each group.</p>
<p>Clients will have to wear masks when they move around the restaurant and staff will have to wear them all the time.</p>
<p>In the Paris region, only outdoor seating will be allowed.<br />
Cinemas will not reopen before June 22.</p>
<p>And as the summer holiday season looms, the French will be allowed again to travel freely across the country — instead of being limited to 60 miles from home now.</p>
<p>“<i>You can move around, you can go on your annual holidays but it’s probably more reasonable to delay a long trip if that is possible,</i>” Mr Philippe said.</p>
<p>France aims at reopening its borders with other European countries on June 15, he said.</p>
