When you walk through the doors of Maison Sœurs, you feel a bit like you're at home, just right. Tucked away in the back of a small courtyard on Garibaldi Street in Saint-Ouen, this building surrounded by greenery and light cuts us off from the bustle of the city and takes us into a world where time seems to stand still.
