The Louvre museum

The Louvre Museum - The Louvre museum in Paris has for the first time in hundreds of years hosted its first guests for an overnight stay. Travelling from the UK, the guests, 26-year-old Daniela and her boyfriend, 29-year-old Adam, had earlier won a competition with Airbnb to embark on the historic trip. Daniela had wooed competition judges with her answer to the question: "Why would you be the perfect guest for Mona Lisa?". The trip consists of three nights in France, with just one at the iconic museum in Paris.
