    My name is Jay Swanson - I'm an American writer living in Paris on an artist visa and hoping to make the city of light my home base - at least for the foreseeable future. I write science-fiction and fantasy, vlogged daily for 3+ years, and love pizza a little too much.

    FAQ:
    How long have you lived in France? Over five years now, holy cow.
    What do you miss most about ho- NACHOS
    You're always talking about living on some ship. WHAT SHIP? - I made a "Draw My Life" video that explains a lot here: • Draw My Life
    Where are you from originally? - Pullman, Washington - a small university/agricultural town near Idaho (and yes, the potatoes are amazing).
    What do you film with? - I've made a lot of changes recently, but I try to keep my gear list up to date if you want to see what I use and buy some for yourself: bit.ly/JaysGearList
    What do you edit with? - Adobe Premiere - it's pretty much all I've ever used since high school.
    Aren't you ever freaked out by leaving your camera behind to film yourself? - Yep. But not too badly - I tend to be careful when I do.
    Why are you living in #Paris? - Because I've always wanted to; I feel at home here: • Why I Want to Live in ...
    Do you speak French? - Oui. • Un Jour en Francais (E...
    Do you make money off CZcams? - Ha, sorta. I wish. It took me over 500 videos to make my first total $100 off adsense. I think it will slowly change, but VERY slowly.
    I really enjoy your videos, how can I support you? - The easiest and best way to support me is through Patreon, where you can pitch in as little as $5/mo to help me make better videos: / jayswanson
    I don't trust this Patreon thing - can I just paypal you? - Here's my ko-fi if that's your thing (and coffee is your game): ko-fi.com/jayswanson
    But I want to send you something tangible! - I do have a wishlist on Amazon, though it's a bit complicated with the international shipping situation. So instead people often drop off or ship things to the Peloton Cafe in Paris for me.
    Thanks for watching!

    THANK YOU Jay Swanson for all of your educational videos I was able to enjoy over and over in preparation for a mother - daughter trip to Paris I took this late June and into July 2023. You do great work and I found your tips 100% valuable to have a safe and comfortable time while in Paris. Keep being YOU!

    Lived in Paris for two years a few years ago. Spent my evenings and weekends wandering the arrondissements, eating and drinking. This channel brings back all the memories, and also makes me question why I ever left.

    • @JaySwanson
      @JaySwanson  Před 11 měsíci

      Paris makes the best memories! And will always call you back, even just for visits.

    I went to 17.45 this summer! I also went to Versailles and loved it. My daughter and I went to a “summer evening in the garden event” which culminated with a fireworks show. Very memorable and the gardens on a beautiful summer night with a glass of champagne in hand: swoon ❤. Thanks Jay for your fun videos that I continue to watch even though vacation is over.

  • @lupa5817
    @lupa5817 Před 8 měsíci

    I was born and bred there, rue des Martyrs - my parents just moved out very recently. So strange to see it from your point of view. It was never a working class neighbourood but it did get sooo bourgeois it's crazy.

    Jay I loved this video. The first time I ever visited Paris when I was a student, we stayed in Pigalle. It was so much fun and like you said a tad seedy. I remember buying phone cards at the Tabac and calling my parents from the booth across from Moulin Rouge. No more booths nowadays. Great place the 9th. 😄

    Hi Jay ! I'm from Paris and everything in this video is great ! Pure facts, the 9th is one of the best if not the best night life district in Paris ! Sadly people that comes to visit Paris tend to gather in Châtelet a lot... Please go enjoy the 9th rather than Châtelet guys ! We are also more welcoming and nicer, but thats probably because we are drunk at this point ahah

    When was this filmed? As dumbo is temporarily closed?

    • @JaySwanson
      @JaySwanson  Před 11 měsíci

      This was filmed earlier in the summer - It's August in Paris, so lots of establishments will be closed for part or all of August for their annual vacations. We always recommend checking their instagram/websites for updates.

    I had to turn off captions to watch this video. Thanks, Jay for telling me how to do that. (they were too large before)

    • @JaySwanson
      @JaySwanson  Před 11 měsíci +1

      Hi Diane! Captions are optional on CZcams, and you can turn them off by hitting CC at the bottom of the video. They aren't built into the video, so you can take them away, and the size of them depends on your personal settings - Hope this helps!

      @JaySwanson  Před 11 měsíci +2

      Yes, it's closed from the 1st to 20th of August for their vacations, but the Dumbo in Petites-Ecuries is open all summer. Best place to find / confirm information is on each restaurant's instagram page :)
