This is a tiny, charming space up a little staircase next to a bakery full of wonderful things. Everything one would need is here, and while we were in Paris during a few particularly hot and sticky days, the fan and windows flung wide made it very comfortable. This is a wonderful neighbourhood, quintessentially French, in which to live not surrounded by tourists, but by people who have mastered the art of living well. We walked to museums, to shops old and new, to green spaces from formal to casual, and to many delectable meals. Alin’s Place was a great place to come home to.
