Julie is a remarkable host. From our very first correspondence she was helpful and kind and friendly. She was out of the city while I was in her lovely home but we were able to communicate with any questions I had or assistance I needed. More than that, she let me stay in her place an additional 2 days to accommodate a change in my next host's availability. Her apartment is sunny and bright and has absolutely everything you need. Full-size refrigerator, super comfortable bed, great water pressure, elevator to the top floor - and a sweet balcony like paradise to see the amazing Paris sky! I enjoyed tending her flowers and plants. I felt so connected to being there. The neighborhood is great. You can get everywhere with the M2 and M9 conveniently close and the 27 bus that goes to the center is right outside the building. Supermarkets, boulangeries and the Wednesday/Saturday marché on Boulevard de Charonne. I stayed here for the first 6 weeks of a 6-month trip. And it was perfect!! Merci, Julie!! I hope to see you again very soon!!! Evy 😘💕
