Norbert greeted us at the apartment upon our arrival and gave us a quick tour of his home. We were very grateful for an elevator as his apartment is on the top (6th) floor. He was quick to offer up toiletries, waters, coffee and food, which is always nice when in a foreign county until you can find your bearings. There is a small grocer directly across from the apartment that carries most things you’ll need, an organic fruit/veg shop a little further up, a pharmacy, yoga studio, a small bar — everything you might need is within just a 5 minute walk. The apartment itself is overflowing with inspiration. Stacked floor to ceiling with incredible books, art, music. We spent a couple of nights in the apartment just drinking wine, looking through art books, listening to CD’s and watching the Eiffel Tower in the distance. We had a wonderful time at Norbert’s and will definitely be back : )
