    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 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!

    Visited Galeries Lafayette this summer and discovered that if you keep going up, the top floor has a stairway that takes you to the roof with an awesome close up view of l'Opéra de Paris and the rest of Paris. What a fun discovery! And it's free!

    Since you’re a Pullman lad, you might appreciate our wine/beer offerings at WSU. Back in the 60’s attendees at goofy grape parties would bring either beer or wine and mix everything in a “new” garbage can. Ahead of our time.

    Big improvements in French beer. When I was there in 1975 (many times since) French beer was more akin to "la pisse du cheval"

    That VR tour of Notre Dame sounds incredible! I’ll definitely try and do that whenever I’m next in the city - hopefully sometime soon. A brewery tour always gets my vote. Gotta try the Viere! Great video with superb suggestions! Cheers Jay! 👍

    Ofcourse France has more breweries than Belgium. They are about 20 times bigger. You would want to use the old quality over quantity in function of the amount of breweries per capita formula😅
