Dominique was a super awesome host who went all out to even helping us with our laundry when we were running out of fresh clothing for the unexpectedly hot weather. His cozy apartment is a walking distance from Gare Du Nord, with the metro station connecting the inner city just 5min walk away. There is a supermarket two streets down, and a fast food joint one street down which sells delicious kebabs. A pity we did not have sufficient time for the restaurants recommended by Dominique. Would highly recommend!
