As Dominique Strauss-Kahn made his return trip to the International Monetary Fund in D.C. Monday, receiving warm applause from his former colleagues, movers were spotted removing boxes from his Georgetown home, according to the British newspaper the Daily Mail. The Italian news agency AGI reported Tuesday that Strauss-Kahn would be leaving the states and will return to his home country of France within the next few days, now that sexual assault charges against the politician have been dropped. In the meantime, Strauss-Kahn and his wife Anne Sinclair are said to be putting their house on Dumbarton St. NW up for rent. They originally bought the townhouse for $4 million when Strauss-Kahn took over as head of the IMF. However, in a recent profile of Sinclair in New York Magazine it was written that “she found D.C. dull and resisted socializing there.” She instead preferred the couple’s $5.5 million penthouse in Paris.
