    My name is Jay Swanson - I'm an American writer living in Paris on an artist visa. Paris (yes the one in France) has been my home for years now and I have every intention of staying here for as long as they'll have me. I write science-fiction and fantasy, vlogged daily for 3+ years, and love pizza a little too much. Now I make videos about visiting Paris, traveling in Europe, and try to share what I've learned along the way. I hope you enjoyed what you found.

    Taylor a un joli appartement qu'elle a décoré avec beaucoup de goût. J'adore les petits tableaux et les dessins d'enfants, c'est trop mignon. Les boites rondes vertes sur l'étagère viennent du "Palais des thés" ? j'aime beaucoup cette boutique de thés. Merci à Taylor de nous avoir montré son appartement avec son agréable sourire et sa gentillesse.

    Awesome piece. Thanks for doing this. Yes, Taylor, must have some very satisfied students. People should not compare to NYC rents. Paris in itself is pretty expansive. What Taylor is paying is basically the equivalent to a month salary of a minimum wage worker.

    Omg, i also live in Paris and someone passed by last week. I just came out of the shower and a man without teeth was in front of my door. He also wanted to control the gas and the chimney. Luckily I have neither of them. He still wanted to come inside and I said no. He immediately became kind of angry and told me that this is against the law what I'm doing and that I have to pay a fine.

    Nice place to live. Just for comparison I live in expensive Switzerland and pay the same for rent, the only difference being that mine is a new build and I have 75 square metres (+ 13 square metres balcony space) - double the amount in this video and even that is considered to be more on the pricey side of things.

      Maybe it's just France then? Dryers aren't done over here, and if they are, they certainly don't dry the way North American dryers do!

    • @traveladdict7173
      @traveladdict7173 8 месяцев назад +1

      @@JaySwanson Hate to be 'that person' but even in France, people have dryers. Not sure how 'common' they are but people do have them. I am one of them. They are for sale in shops so people are buying them.
      Where I live in France, and my current circumstances, I simply wouldn't have dry clothes in winter without one. It also works great. I know most people in North America don't like front loader washing machines and non venting (condenser) dryers. Saves having to put a hole in the wall though.
      In the warmer months our clothes are hung outside where we have lots of space. Just not practical in these colder wet months.
