After catching a couple of hours' sleep on MH020 from Kuala Lumpur, we arrived safely at CDG airport in Paris, the City of Light, centre of the universe (at least as far as Francophiles are concerned) and de la plàce where everyone cool should be ... I've run out of superlatives - you get the idea. With concise instructions from our sister-in-law Sophie, or is it Sophié, we made our way to the Chatelét des Halle RER station, followed directions towards Centre de Pompidou, Paris and found our way to 156 rue Saint Martin, to be warmly welcomed by our host Dany Bonnaure, and a warm welcome it was!
Right on day 1, I've felt that we've experienced something most Lonely Planet-reading, TripAdvisor researching tourists wouldn't have experienced, which is chilling out with a Parisian in what is essentially a homestay - simply fantastic!
