    Saint Germain des Pres, Saint Sulpice, and so many other gems are shoved into the 6e arrondissement of Paris. We hit up the best sando in Paris, one of my favorite parks (Luxembourg Gardens), and even dropped some notes on running in Paris.
    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: www.jayswanson.me/gear
    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 RUclips? - 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!

    On our last visit to Paris we stayed in the 6th and really loved it. And we spent a fairly long time staring at that weird statue. We couldn’t figure it out either.

    Another terrific video! One of my favorite traditions when visiting Paris is grabbing a few macarons from the nearby Pierre Hermé and snacking on them in the Saint Sulpice square.

    We are going to be there soon. It appears on the Saint Germain des Pres website that there is mass on Sundays at 11:00 a.m. We read that Saint Germain gets parishioners who would normally attend Notre Dame, and wonder if the masses are overflowing because of this…if anyone has any insights.

    Thank you, merci, gracias! We’ve been waiting for this one especially. Our apt is on Rue Jacob and this episode hits HARD! Cannot wait to walk those streets.

    I know this is an older video but I went to Comptoir du Marche THREE times on our two week trip. If you like natural wine in a vibe that’s very different than the 6th overall, it’s a great spot. The 6th can be a bit sleepy, especially mid-day, so Marche can be a lifesaver. The Cafe du Clown next door (the silly one you mentioned) is one of the very few decent coffee spots I found. Coffee desert over there!

    We spent a month in France this spring which included 2 weeks in Paris. Checked out the Peleton for coffee as we'd become familiar with it from watching your earlier videos. At the end of our holiday, we discussed how it's been our 4th visit to Paris and maybe we don't need to include it on our next trip to France. Now, 4 months later and due in part to watching your videos...we want to go back to Paris.

    I absolutely love the 6th. We had a fantastic “formule” picnic in the Jardin de Luxembourg last time we were there. I’ve never been to the market so that’s one for my next (hopefully soon!!) visit. Cheers Jay. 🙏👍

  • @sherrieshatzen3801
    @sherrieshatzen3801 9 месяцев назад

    Thanks for the Place de Furstenberg. It is one of my favorite places in Paris. You didn't mention it but it is the place for Delacroix, the artist. Maybe in a future 20 in 20 you could point out where famous/important people have lived or worked. There are a lot of them in the 6th. For me that information brings the area more alive. Restaurants & coffee shops & bars come & go but historical addresses maintain their history regardless of what is located at any given address at any point in time.

    Love that Paname beer! On a related note: you should do a new series: #1 in 20. Places to find a public washroom in every arrondissment. In May, my poor wife had to wait a painfully long time for the auto restroom behind Sacre Coeur - it took a minute or so to self clean between each user. There were about 10 women in line. True confession - I just found a bush. I suspect I am not alone and that we could all use some Paris bathroom guidance - many streets and areas had a rather distinct, don't know how else to say it, urine smell. Salute!
