After a brief welcome from Lara, we had the place to ourselves. It's a small flat, with all mod cons, in an incredible location, close to the Eiffel Tower, Metro and RER stations. Paris is a city to be walked, and we walked from the flat to the Arc de Triomphe and the Louvre, among other places. There are many good restaurants and supermarkets nearby, and other places of interest; the restaurants ranging from classic French to Italian, Persian and Thai.
