Hello, We're relocating to Paris and planning to buy an apartment. I'm worried about secondhand cigarette smoke. Our daughter has mild asthma and I also hate the smell. I've crossed the street to avoid walking behind people smoking.
Not trying to debate smoking, I understand it's widely enjoyed in Paris. I'm just curious, have people bought apartments in Paris and had trouble with second hand smoke smell from neighbors? Is there a way to seal off apartments to stop the smoke from entering? Do air purifiers help? Do the lovely Haussemannian apartments in Paris smell like cigarettes--is it just expected?
Thanks.
