Apartment in Paris
|
|
Every year millions of English-speaking travelers come to Paris, and each year increasing numbers are discovering the joys of renting apartments. Apartment in Paris is the only guide telling readers how to search out rental accomodations in different neighborhoods of Paris and how to live well for less in a city known for the high cost of living. The book is based on the author's and his wife's experiences in renting over the last decade and living as Parisians rather than tourists.
Visits to many interesting points in the city and nearby environs are featured. Suzanne's recipes are interspersed throughout the text along with comments on culinary trends and commentary on favorite restaurants.
Eight appendices at the back of the book give valuable information to readers wishing to follow the Klomans' example in finding an apartment right for their budget and living well for less in the enchanting City of Light. One appendix, for example, lists 31 rental agencies in all parts of the United States offering apartments for rent in Paris.
Email addresses and web pages of these agencies will be listed in the next version of this page.
