Salut Antonia,

À = To/in and De = From/of with cities in French (French Prepositions of Location)

I think you will find the above link helpful to deal with your query.

If not, think in terms of Je viens à -- I come to .... (I have come to location --for the purpose of ..)

Bonne continuation

Jim
