Her three story townhouse is located about 3 blocks from a metro station in a fashionable suburb (Boulogne) and about the same distance from a twice weekly street market. Around the corner from her home one can catch a city bus to go to the Eiffel Tower, the Arc de Triomphe, l’Opéra, the Concorde, the Louvre, the Grand Palais, and a host of other museums. There is a bakery on the corner and a delightful park is 1/2 block away. Her place is very quiet and secure with a garden for dining al fresco or for your children to play in. WiFi, free telephone service to the U.S., guide books in English and French, toys for the kids, and children's books in English and French are all available.

APARTMENT SWAP – BAY AREA / PARIS. A dear friend of mine is planning on visiting us for 2 weeks at the end of August-beginning of September from Paris (dates still negotiable). She is coming with her partner and their one-year old. We're looking to do a home swap between her apartment in Paris and a place in the Bay Area. Her place is a small loft (750 sq ft) located in the 4th district in Paris (''Le Marais''), at the center of the city. It's a very safe and trendy neighborhood, next to the fashionable gay district and the Jewish district. It's basically a 2 bedroom, with washing machine, TV, internet, etc. Please let me know if you might be interested, or feel free to pass on the announcement to friends. The goal is for me to be able to meet with people who might be interested, and for the two ''households'' to communicate in detail before the exchange so that both parties feel comfortable with the arrangement. Thank you! Mathilde matriff@gmail.com
