- SMALL APARTMENT TOUR in FRANCE | MINIMALIST Living 2021
I thought I would finally share with you my small apartment tour in France. We are adapting to minimalist living and after moving to the South of France we had a fresh start. We have a small space of around 400 sq ft and I thought you would enjoy seeing how we designed our tiny home. I hope you enjoy seeing our apartment in France.

I love it! I am Dutch and for European standards this is not a small apartment at all, I have a friend whom lives in Paris and she would kill for a spacious apartment like yours ;) I never forget when my Canadian friend visited me she was shocked about the size of our houses haha but to me, I actually love reasonably small places.
Haha, I guess coming from Los Angeles and the homes I’ve lived in its small. I’m definitely getting used to it and realizing it’s perfect my little family.
YOUR APARTMENT IS BEAUTIFUL!!! You get so much natural light and the decor is so so nice!!! I like that you can also sit outside to eat!
Thanks so much Sam, I really appreciate it. Definitely one of my favorite parts of our home is the lighting.
I love your apartment loft. I live in a 500 sq ft loft in downtown LA. I downsized from a 900 sq ft. I love the space. It's easier to maintain and it's a lot cheaper. Most of the buildings being built in downtown are now being built with micro lofts 200sq ft - 600sq ft. as people prefer the smaller micro lofts over the expensive large lofts. I think 400 sq ft. is a perfect size. Beautiful furniture and decor sammy!!!
Thanks Rocco! I have realized that living here that I don’t need much more space, it’s perfect and helps me not buy excess things because I would have no where else to put it 😂 So crazy that DTLA is now doing micro lofts!
What a beautiful tour. Your apartment is absolutely gorgeous. You showing your house with a glass of wine is a whole mood LOL. Amazing video quality as well😍
Thanks so much. I always have to have a nice glass of wine in hand😊
Love what you guys have done with such a small space! Paul's organization skills are intense! LOL
Thanks Bruder! Yes, Paul is definitely a neat freak.
It looks and feels wonderful
So calm and homy
I never knew that you could keep your pet
I will consider that for my cat
This was very inspiring and there was nothing I would change🪴💕
Thank you so much, our bathroom and bedroom have changed a bit with painting and wallpaper, and of course more plants🌱
Such a sweet home :) I think you could fit a small table (bistro like) and two chairs in the corner next to the TV, near the window, so that you would have a space to eat at a table if you would like :) Just an idea of course!
Thank you so much Cláudia! We actually now f have a small desk there to work on RUclips videos 🙌🏽 I love hearing peoples ideas so thank you ❤️
So cuuuutteee 😍😍😍 I could never be that minimal but I appreciate it!
😊 Thank you! Haha, it’s definitely an adjustment. I used to have so many things.
You have a beautiful, bright and balanced home. The b&w photographs of your loved ones are amazing. So much personality in their poses.
Thank you so much, I appreciate it 💕
I need to get on Paul’s organization level 🙌🏼
Don’t we all 😂
I just love how much we are so used to rooms arrangements in our respective countries (talking about toilets being in a separate room) that when we face another one we're weirded out. ^^
Will always remember the surprise on the face of the landlord when I worked in Texas when I went "Wait the toilets are IN the bathroom ? Gross !" poor sod looked at me like I was an alien. XD
That being said more and more toilet rooms have their own sink these days.
Well at least in my area.
The thing you lucked out on though is the balcony it's rare to have one that is this large up North.
🤣🤣🤣 We are used to what we know. I am used to it now but was in so much shock when I first arrived.
I loved seeing where you guys live. It's so nice. You have done a great job decorating it. Very nice. I can't wait to come visit
I can’t wait till I can show you around!🤗
Your place definitely reflects your personality and your life style. Looks lovely 💐
Thank you so much Ana ❤️
Inviting and pretty home. I miss seeing Kingston. Easy to take care of plant is also the ZZ plant and pothos since you have lots of light. Idea for another video is Paul’s skills being minimal and organized. I too must maintain being minimal, it helps clear the head. Thank you for the video and always a joy to be part of your life in France where I love.
I miss seeing him in his bed, and throughout the whole house. I have been wanting a pothos, I’ll have to get one soon. I will see if Paul is up for the video idea, thanks for the recommendation! As always thanks for your support!
I love your apartment tour! It's beautiful!
Thank you so much Jamie, I appreciate it❤️
Wow each and every thing is beautiful . god bless you and i liked the cleaness of your apartment lovely. and your apartment is full of happines
Thank you so much for the lovely comment. ❤️
Lovely! Strange to walk to another room to wash your hands after using the restroom though....lol
Right?! I'm used to it now but I was shocked when I first moved here.
All u need is there ... just subbed really enjoyed this. Now I gotta go back and watch your journey but like I said keep it up ur concept is interesting 🇫🇷❤️🔥🙏🏾
Thank you so much for watching and your support.
Love the towel warmer and you could always just paint the bedroom wall a color
Yes, I’ve been thinking of an accent wall! Thank you❤️
Love it. You have it all organized and with enough space for me to visit ;)
Yessss!!!! The couch folds into a bed too!
I loved that comment that Mexicans put their baking dishes in the oven!! It definitely makes me laugh. I do that all the time, and every time my kids want to bake they look all over the kitchen they still don't know why we do that 😂😂
🤣 can’t let that storage room go to waste
Just a little advice I think you should keep the medicine first aid kit in the kitchen because it’s the main area of the house and in an emergency you need to get to that kit as quickly as possible not only that the kitchen is also one of the popular places where accidents happen.
PS you have a beautiful minimalist home one-day want to achieve
Thanks for the advice and lovely comment, I appreciate it!❤️
Bangladeshis 🇧🇩 also put baking dishes and other dishes in their oven, nice to know Mexicans do that too ☺️, your apartment is beautiful !
Haha, it’s nice to see it’s done all over world. Maximizing our storage space🙌🏽 Thank you so much for watching.
Me too.. here in NY!
Nice apartment 👍🤗
You have a beautiful place also love the minimalist decor ❤️
Thank you so much🫶🏽
What a lovely home two are making(:
I like the LA poster in the living room.(;
Aww thanks Ana! You know we needed a piece of home on our new home❤️
Such a nice apartment you have!
Thank you, I really appreciate it!
Beautiful and girl that kitchen has so much storage space.I have more floor space in my kitchen but you have me beat on storage
Thanks Ruth! I wish I had more cupboard space but I guess I should be grateful for what I have😂
@@SamFournier oh yes. You have more than others. But did good with what you have
Really love your apartment and how you've decorated it and made use of the space! What are the dimensions of your rug by the way? I'm looking for something of a similar size for our living room.
Thank you so much Lydia, so kind of you😊 Our rug is 200x300cm 78.5x118in
very well organized😍
Thank you, we try 💕
Your home is stunning! I great place to unwind.
Thank you so much Amanda💕
Love it!
Thank you so much Rose💕
Lovely Apartment tour, very inspirational!
Thank you so much Shannon💕
Nespresso! ☕️
Lovely apartment.. I’m definitely trying to become more minimalist and organised 😘
Thank you so much Linda. Once I started being more minimalistic it was such a relief, I’m still working on it but it’s very rewarding. Good luck on your journey to minimalism ✨
❤️😘
Hi Sam, I just found your videos. I am thinking about relocating to aix and I wondered if you could do more videos about daily life, like how to find apartments, types of visas one can get to get to stay in France, etc
Hi Jorge! Aix is a lovely place to live, as for the French bureaucracy it can be a pain in the ass. It would be hard for me to create a video on these sorts of things as my husband is French so I am not familiar on what type of visas are available for people wanting to move abroad. As for apartments you can check out these websites, www.seloger.com and www.leboncoin.fr 🙂 There is a fb page called Moving to Aix en Provence and I highly recommended checking it out as others will be able to guide you, also Americans in France is super helpful. The best of luck to you!
And I love it that you are drinking wine in the video :-)
Thanks Desiree🍷
You guys have a nice apartment 😊!!!!
Thanks Art!
Gorgeous apartment! Aix en Provence is a beautiful place to live.
Merci Beaucoup Kat!
Nice tour and shout out to Paul!
Thank you so much for watching!
First😉
🤣🤗 Thanks for watching
Congratulations coz for me I’m still trying hard to be minimalist
Oh me too! My husband has it down but I still have some work to do.
Ha! I bring Cholula back with me to Portugal any time I return to San Diego :)
Haha, the best!
I saw the Nutella again 😱😳,Lol!!!!
Hey :) I’m planning to move in Aix around September but I’m struggling to find good appartements at a reasonable price … May I ask how you found yours?
Thanks !
I actually found mine through a family member. If you join moving to Aix en Provence fb group sometimes people post places they have available for rent, I hope this helps.
Your apartment looks cozy. The building looks newish. Does it have A/C?
Thank you, it is a new building. We had an ac installed when we moved in.
hey can you please tell the rug size it would be really very helpful to me plz plz plz let me know .Actually my appartment is exactly of this size and i was looking for rug big enough like yours so plz do let me know
It’s 200x300cm 78.5x118in
@@SamFournier thank you so much 🤗
Gin and whisky, my drinks of choice.
Cheers!
You bought your plant Where???
I get my plants from IKEA and Botanic.
Hi what area of the South of France is this?
Hi Joel! This is in Aix en Provence🙂
Are there shutters at the windows
No, I wish😍
@@SamFournier You should put something up at the windows so it is more private
@@janstevens1376 well, there is the electric ones but I love the old charming shutters 😍
You have a nice apartment but why holding a wine?
Thank you. I love my wine, currently holding one now😂
🤣 i was cringing because of that 2
Very nice apartment and adorable cat😍😍remember that Jesus Christ love you and want to be the savior of your soul
Thank you so much Monica!
Next video: please put your wine down. Now looks like you’re an alcoholic.
I will never not be confused and amused by Americans calling normal sized items "tiny" haha.
😂😂😂
Walking around with a glass of wine makes you more French?
It's a "Maison du Monde" house😂? Not minimalist for me but simply and elegant decorated
Haha, it really is. My favorite home decor store in France. Thanks for watching.
the neckline and the glass of wine in hand it was not necessary
Do you think the neckline is too low? I like her shirt
Set down the wine... 🤦🏻♀️
Oh my goodness. Thank you for saying that I thought I was the only one. I know she was probably going for some kind of vibe but it was distracting. Oh Look she's in the bathroom talking about the toilet holding a glass of wine. It's a beautiful place and she's a beautiful lady who seems warm and engaging but walking around with the glass the entire time took away from the tour.
.
Can’t please everyone🤷🏽♀️
Btw, r u vegan Sam😍.
Yes, I am🥰
It's a nice cozy appartement, well organised and full of green. Your interior skill is amazing. Can't wait for more videos.
@@durgalaxmy1666 thank you so much, I definitely want to add more plants 🌱
Well organised but not minimalistic.
So Pretentious holding wine as if you’re really into that. And you’re holding it wrong.
