Because I booked my stand at the international Maison & Objet trade fair for september 2016 already,
I thought I'd better check the lovely apartment we rented last year and
book that right away. What a disappointment, it was booked already for September! I
understand it, it was a popular location (Les Halles): a nice, spacious, quiet and
clean place in the bumping heart of Paris.
Fortunately I immediately found something else (at AirBnB, like always). See photo's above. The apartment looks real nice and is located is on 200 meters from the subway station and from the entrance of the gorgeous
Jardin du Luxembourg! Quartier Latin is around
the corner and on the other side there's the
Sorbonne University, where my grandmother studied back in the 1920's. (Note to self: ask dad what she did there, where she lived etc...)
Well, at the moment I am picturing my co worker Kim
and me - after a hard days work at the huge and busy fair - with our take-away sushi in a lovely real French Fermob chair in the
parc...
