Mitt Romney has told supporters of his hard times while in France as a Missionary for his church. How he had to use a bucket to go to the lavatory and a hose in order to have a shower.But the Republican
presidential hopeful spent a significant portion of his 30-month mission in a Paris mansion described by fellow American
missionaries to The Daily Telegraph as “palace”. It featured stained glass windows, chandeliers, and an extensive art collection. It was staffed by two servants – a Spanish chef and a houseboy.
Although he spent time in other French cities, for most of 1968, Mr Romney lived in the Mission Home, a 19th century neoclassical building in the French capital’s chic 16th arrondissement. “It was a house built by and for rich people,” said Richard Anderson, the son of the mission president at the time of Mr Romney’s stay. “I would describe it as a palace”.
