@WalkingSlowly just buy a plug adaptor that comes with USB sockets. That will solve your problem. I use universal adaptor when traveling.

Hi @WalkingSlowly  - Public USB ports are often available, in all sorts of places and a PC can always be used. But the easiest is to charge from a locally bought [or pre-ordered] USB charger, which may be cheaper than an adapter.

France is 220v and US 110v Also they have 50hz and US 60hz which is another reason to use a charger for the country, though many adapt automatically. It's good to ask and be prepared to avoid surprises.

@WalkingSlowly   Fitbits are dual voltage.  @Triletics is correct.  A plug adapter with USB ports is all you need.

@Triletics @LZeeW @Guy_ Thank you for your help. 

@WalkingSlowly , A warm welcome to the Community! 

I just jumped in, to add to the previous information. 
If you purchase a socket adapter to charge the Sense, just make sure that it is low energy and not for fast charging, and it's CE or UL certified.
