An elevator in Paris? Check. A picture postcard view? Check. A communicative and thorough host? Check. Sophie is more than involved and interested in the people she hosts. We both would like to meet in person (she was on holiday too) some way or another. The place is away from any real touristy part of Paris but close enough by metro for any or all areas of Paris. While there was a slight heat wave, the apartment is nice, airy and has a cross breeze as there are windows on both sides of the building. It is a bit different (maybe strange) living where the host lives (a first for me) but we liked looking at all the baby books and toys :)
