Catherine is incredibly friendly and generous and not only made me feel at home in Paris, but helped me practice my French, shared her delicious homemade cake and jam with me, and prepared natural remedies for me when I was sick. The apartment includes the bedroom, the bathroom, the shower room, the living room (where the wifi is strongest) and the kitchen. I was helping out at OuiShare Fest in Parc de la Villette for the week and it was very nice to be able to walk there every day. The area is like its own smaller city within Paris and has a variety of supermarkets and restaurants. It's also close to walks along the canal.
