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, vlog daily, and love pizza a little too much.
FAQ:
How long have you lived in France? On and off for over two years.
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 currently film almost exclusively with my Samsung Galaxy S8: amzn.to/2lPKSpZ
How do you get those shots where you're walking or running? - A Joby Gorillapod for smartphones, like this: amzn.to/2sXNIL3
You drop your phone a lot, how does it survive? - THIS CASE IS AMAZING: amzn.to/2hoxgTA (Galaxy S7) - amzn.to/2Dt08Bu (Galaxy S8) - amzn.to/2FxVliP (iPhone)
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.

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 $1/mo to help me make better videos: / jayswanson

Thanks for taking us into the Ritz with you, its a place I was always curious about but never had the chance to visit. Anna thank you for being such dear and taking care of our boy Jay! I must say you have been quite popular with the ladies this past week - keep it up and hope to see more candid adventures!
She's a gem to be sure =D
OH La La!!! That was nice to see The Ritz & so nice of your friend to give you all those goodies. Yes hearing about Mercy Ships is really very interesting. See you in the morning!!!!
I just can't believe that's a normal thing in some people's lives
Just wanted to say, your a fortunate man to go to all those places. Some people barely leave there own state. Enjoy and keep doing what your doing.
I certainly agree 😄
Perfect swag from annainaspen!!! New hat, new scarf, new t's! Ritz looked yummy:)
It was a solid day!
Omg the tea and all the little yummys! I'm literally drooling...
T'was tasty!
You’re welcome and enjoy. The candies are coffee not chocolate. The cookies are in bags that contain 100 calories each. I did try to keep you on your diet somewhat. The trail mix was the lower calorie with yogurt bits in it.
But if I eat ALL the bags in one sitting, haha
You might be up for days. Lol
annainaspen youre so thoughtful!
Amazing swag bag, Anna!! SO nice of you!
annainaspen I'm taking my wife for tea time in about 3 weeks. Any suggestion for making the reservation? Thank you.
What a lovely spoil from Anna. So kind and thoughtful ❤️.
💯 agree! 😃
Wonderful day! Now you have choices of hats and scarves! Yea! Great vlog today.
I'm rolling in the fashion 😄
Wow I have always wondered what tea at the Paris Ritz looked like. Great to visit vicariously! #yum #oneday
Happy to serve as your lens 😉
Tea at the Ritz.. love it.
T'was tastee
Every day you reveal a few more details of your most fascinating life!
You live your life to the fullest!
Gotta keep some secrets for later 😉
addicted to this channel
😎👍
Wow @annainaspen! Plus, now you have a backpack! So thoughtful!
She's super thoughtful
That Ritz tea looked lovely,all those yummy little cakes!
It was really nice. So glad to get the chance to go!
Cant wait ti hear stories from the Merchant ships.. Really eenjoying the Vlogs Thanx Jay,, Be Great Jeff
You can check out the Mercy Ships Monday playlist on my channel if you'd like to jump into those stories =D
Loved seeing you get all those things, haha Anna knows you so well!
THE SNACKS
That place looked beautiful and the cookies looked amazing ☺
It was beautiful. I definitely would go back - I need to check out the Hemmingway Bar next time
Tea at the Ritz looks good! 👍 Must give it a whirl. I'm back in town for a few days if you're around and fancied meeting up? Last met at a meet up around November time last year.
It was really tasty - definitely recommended. It's not looking like we'll have a meetup until later in April and I'm pretty booked between friends coming in from out of town and the Kickstarter wrapping up tomorrow - hopefully next time the timing works out better!
Okay, no worries, rude not to let you know and offer I thought!
Thanks for the offer!
Seriously cracking up. Funniest fancy hotel explanation ever.
Awesome swag! Don't suppose you noticed if the bottom of the cups said Bernardaud? Used to work for them and Ritz was one of our big customers in the hotel and restaurant division back then.
Ah, I didn't even look. If only I'd known to check! =D
Jay man you never disappoint! Always enjoy your videos. Have awesome and productive day.
Thanks Louis!
Hello Anna! That looked amazing! Tea at the Ritz. Whenever I hear The Ritz, I can't help but think of Peter Boyle in Young Frankenstein. Sorry, my silly humor! Still, I want to go there now that I've seen you guys enjoying it!
It was really nice =D
Great hearing more about the Mercy ships and I would love to see photos or video!
My congratulations to Anna for presenting you with that fabulous new Beanie - that's what we call them here in South Africa. Your old blue & white one had seriously started to grow little bobbles (which you could shave off?)
You are looking very healthy Jay -
We call them beanies too 😀 It's great!
Jay, very nice day in Paris, but you did’nt mention a little about the Place Vendome.
I hope I could be able to have tea in a cute cafe in Paris too 💖
I hope so too =)
Jay Swanson, yay i got a comment from the creator himself! 😊 I’m mostly a silent viewer; I really love your vlogs! They make me feel as if I’m in Paris too. I love this city so much, even though I’ve never been there before. Thank you so much for all the hard work! 💕🥐 I hope u make more vids about pastries!
I had high tea at the Ritz in London, the Paris Ritz looks lovely as well💜💜
I might have to make the Ritz à thing over time if I'm lucky 😄
These videos are by far the most informative and interesting I've seen while I'm preparing to go to Europe (Paris included). You're great!
Thank you! =)
Heading to Paris at the end of August. Staying at Le Scribe but going to check out the Ritz and the four seasons hotel George. Probably try to have lunch or supper there. Any tips?
I love your videos so much 😊 also, started watching the first season. it's like a little movie about this awesome guy living the coolest life 😄
I'm not sure it qualifiés for coolest 😂 But I'm glad you're here!!
Jay you have awesome friends and a lovely landlord lady. Wow!
@annainaspen has great taste! The dinner your guardian angel-landlady prepared looked delicious. Enjoyed the video!
Prepared by the restaurant down the street 😉 and it was delicious. Overall a great if crazy day.
Wow nice box 📦 full of goodies! 😀👏🥂
P.S- That was one incredible, mouth watering sweet platter!
It was a great day =D
6:25 "I'm going to close the door, but don't leave just yet because my camera is still on the sidewalk. Need to get out of the car again to grab it." :)
That guy
Great video!
Thank you!
i love the uber driver at 6:26, as he points "uhhhhhh..... you forgot your phone."
Everyone stresses too much about these things 😉
I immediately thought of "Je Veux" from Zaz when you said the Ritz. Hope you enjoyed Amsterdam 🇳🇱
T'was Ritzy indeed. And I definitely look forward to making a return trip to Amsterdam 😍
It was probably soaked in earl grey syrup. Earl Grey= bergamot, which tastes exactly like fruit loops. Delish!
Ahhh, interessant. Thanks for the insider note on that, I had no idea
Yes to more Mercy Ships Monday's please! :)
😄
Jay how much was that tea and pastries in American dollars?
Wow, you're amazing. I subscribed and I will now go binge to catch up. Peace.
Aw, thank you =)
Any idea how much tea at the Ritz goes for? I’m thinking of adding it to our to do list. Thanks
Not sure, but you can look up reservation info here: www.ritzparis.com/en-GB/salon-proust
Are positions on mercy ships all volunteer or are they paid? Does it depend where you work out of? Not that I most likely could because motion sickness would wreck me.
The vast majority are volunteer, but some critical roles (things that legally must be filled by maritime law, for example) will get a paid person if volunteers can't be found. As for the motion sickness, you hardly notice it at all in port - the ship is pretty stable when tied to the dock. =D
Popcorn is such a fun snack!
Fully agree 🍿
BLESS up! :)
Cute when you ate the bunny head :)
It had it coming 😉
7:47 - It's Christmas in March!!! Nice swag!
So many treats!
Not for nothing, but you clean up good!!
I could clean up even better without this beard haha
Cynthia Stewart I second that comment!!! 👍✨💖
however, as a writer you must have a beard
Brown shoes!! Like Mercy Ships Mondays. Keep them going.
👍
« I could get used to life at The Ritz » ☕️
Haha
you should try (if you haven't yet that is!) hot chocolate at Angelina's !!
I haven't had theirs yet I don't think. I'll need to try it eventually =)
Jay Swanson : no, you cannot he so casual about hot chocolate at Angelina's, you will understand when you go. You must have breakfast, perhaps take a friend- you will kick yourself for waiting so long!!!
3:32 there goes your jacket.
What a day! You deserved it or should I say, you got your just 'desserts'...sorry! Yes please to more Mercy Ships Mondays.
Puntastic 🎂
Holy sheet
Now you have to go to Paris' Hilton hotel.
He he he he cookie 🍪
You're filthy Holly
Hey ... you're the one that said it repeatedly!!!
Fruit Loops!!!! lol
Definitely.
Do you meet french writers in Paris ?
Not often, but occasionally
Paris
Bonjour 😁
Hola =)
Quelle belle femme Anna est! J'aime le butin!
She's awesome!
