Norbert was a wonderful host and his home was such a Parisian dream. Its a quick walk from the nearest train stop and Norbert met us and gave us a gracious and helpful tour of his home. It's beautiful. The art, the books, the view of the glittering Eiffel Tower at night - just perfect. We loved the neighborhood. Plenty of wonderful bakeries, restaurants and things to do - our favorites being the Montparnasse Cemetery (where some of the worlds most famous writers and artists, among other notable people, are buried) and the Luxembourg Gardens. The neighborhood was not touristy which we appreciated, but also easy enough to get to the big tourist attractions in the city. We very much enjoyed the walk to the Eiffel tower! Norbert's home was so comfortable and it would have been easy not to leave it during our stay - from sipping coffee and viewing the city from the gorgeous windows in the morning to sipping wine at night with a perfect view of the city lights in the evening. Merci beaucoup Norbert!
