Don’t worry – the water pressure isn’t going to be high enough to spray water all over the place. All the hot water will be used within minutes of everyone getting up, so you will be trying to use as little cold water as possible.

That’s an attic apartment – some friends renovated a French farmhouse. Their water boiler is in the basement while the bedrooms and bathroom are in the attic level. All the rooms have lie-ins, where the roof slopes into the room.

Sure would cut down on those impulsive Costco purchases.

When my friends and I studied abroad in Paris most of us lived with host families. However, one girl chose not to, and she was put into a room like this one…didn’t know until now there was a special name for what it was. Anyway, the toilet was a communal one in the hallway. Let’s just say it was NOT a fun place to visit.

Maybe the rest of you are neater than I am, but with just that plastic curtain the carpet would be soaking wet after one of my showers. Then it’s squish squish to the bed.

OK, my French is almost non-existant, but it looks like this thing is for *sale* for 54,900 Euros! I can’t even imagine paying OVER 76K for that! Even if it is only 5 mim. to the Champs Elysees. I’d hate to be just starting out trying to find a home in that city.

Nice and bright and clean. Simple, Feng Shui living for the urban exhibitionist without unwieldy possesions.

I wouldn’t live in either of those bathrooms, but I’d live in a bathroom if it was cheap enough (and private). Save my money to go out all the time except collapsing.
