BUT WHERE'S THE BIDET
Seoul has ELECTRONIC bidets in almost every home its been a thing since i was a weee baby heated seats and everything maaan
i like the 'stache Damon ! ^^
Y’en a pas 😂😭
That is a not a toilet, iT'S a DEMON 😂
Oh God that bidet 😂 in another french city it is wayyyyy cheaper 😂
Toilet: *little water rushing sounds*
Me: oh okay not that bad
Toilet: *screams*
Me: ...oh
Bruhhhh
SCREAMS LMAO
That's exactly how I felt HAHAHAHAHA
👀 lol
I laughed SO hard 😂
The shower's the only place where there isn't a curtain
OMG THAT IS THE BEST OBSERVATION 😂😂😂
Hahahaha 😂
🤣🤣🤣
👌😄
And where you need it! :D
No shade but that hallway looks more appealing than the apartment lol
Paris is soooo overrated
@@jnewmark41 So true! I don't get why people obsess over it, I'd much rather live in a different city in France that is nicer and has a more authentic feel than Paris.
@Sidemony don't worry your English is great! Tu parles français? I want to study abroad for a semester in France but I'd rather study in a smaller city possibly in the south but I've never been to France so I'm not sure.
@Sidemony Ah c'est cool ça! J'espère que tu as raison
I agree 🤣😂
“Size doesn’t matter”
*eye twitch*
*sudden cough attack*
... int terms of kitchens
🤪
When the toilet went off for real, MY SOUL WAS SHOOK
I WAS DEAD
The AirBnB host has left the chat...
Hoosier On The Run- Travel Vlog 😂😂 yes
But my only question is WHEN are you gonna upload more Paris vlogs?!! Those are my favorite hands down on this channel!!
I have SO many ideas but I don't want to scare the Paris haters off this channel 😥
@@DamonAndJo I'm French and also, it's your channel you don't need to flex your choices for viewers if that don't working with someone that still make happy a other. You are free on RUclips so do all and see how far you can go. Have fun ^^
@@DamonAndJo I think you should do a poll! I think you would be surprised by the amount of people who love paris vlogs!!! (I really do!)
@@DamonAndJo Don't be scurred
I love the (oui) in the end of the title 😂
Abdellaoui Maisa me too 😂😂
At least you’ll save on a gym membership with all those stairs
Jagoda S that’s exactly what I was thinking . The price for fitness ! You will always stay in shape 😂💪🏻
Exactly my thoughts!!! I do love me an elevator, but with walking all those stairs and going everywhere on a bike, imma eat me all the baguettes in Paris and still be a skinny legend 😌👏
"And you can only afford what used to be the maid's quarters" If that's not a mood, then idk what is😂
1200€ in the 3rd arrondissement with such a big space is a good price!
that’s how apartments normally look in paris don’t look too much on tumblr lol
@@Gee-xb7rt chill with the murica/murican hate lmao i live in paris and though the buildings are beautiful, their architecture is trash. a lot of places are divided in such an inefficient way.
@@Gee-xb7rt you're sick, you think saying "murica" is edgy and makes you sound smart but all it does is show you're a bandwagon hater who has 0 arguments. also i'm not french, I just LIVE in France, but why am i not surprised you can't read? nice day creep.
omg I used to live in a chambre de bonne in the 16th and let me tell you, my calves never looked so good hauling 2 loads of laundry up and down six flights of narrow stairs
The second you made it black and white I said to myself "yup this is France alright"
That's the only thing aesthetic about this apartment
that kitchen makes me claustrophobic
-gotta breathe some new life into this place-
*aggressively sprays houseplants*
i’m from canada but i’m headed to Nice/Paris tonight... can’t wait to have the best random-curtain, blocked-window experience of my life haha
lol it looks like a reject Playboy mansion when you walk in
Britney Cole lol
The one dislike is the landlord
Yeah, 1200€ in europe is pretty expensive, depending on location tho. You can find stuff for 400€ outside the hotspots, people usually share the expensive appartments.
I've lived in a 60m2 duplex with cellar and parking, with a stellar view AND a terrace...for 1300 a month. Just because it was in Vanves (aka 100 m away from paris intra-muros). No insecurity whatsoever, great city to live in :)
@Gabrielle Reut. Where did you hear that... I live in the outskirts of Paris and it's better imo. People are nicer, it's greener, cheaper etc. Please come and see so that you can make your own opinions.
@Gabrielle Reut. ???
7:25
Lmaooooo that’s a sanibroyeur if I’ve ever heard one. It’s purposefully installed into the plumbing to literally crush your shit into pieces. Just make sure not too throw toilet paper down there. I hope you’re enjoying French ingenuity in plumbing and shit-crushing.
Those croissants must be hard
@@YukiKunikida I'm dead💀💀😭
Wait why can it crush shit but not toilet paper
mr sir
I assume it’s because a lot of toilet papers sold in the EU don’t disintegrate easily when flushed down the toilet. It might also be because we would normally take several folds/plies of toilet paper at a time and therefore making the plumbing prone to clogging.
Lmao I’m just talking out of my arse, pun intended. I haven’t got a clue. I’m not a plumber.
@@mister0sir use a bidet! lol
Yes. Showering in Paris is _Mission Impossible_ , except Tom Cruise isn’t there to help you so you flop massively and end up having to mop the floor bc there’s no shower curtain to keep it contained
Y'all ever heard about the Great Flood of Paris?
What? I'm actually from Paris and everyone I know has a shower curtain 🤔🤔
@@sofrenchnsoclean It might be that it's just the airbnbs I've been staying at!
@@Yvaia lol yeah or maybe I only know people who don't enjoy having to mop their bathroom floor everyday 😁
*7:32** that toliet sounds like its about to go on stage with its own solo*
I lived in Paris for 1.5 years - my apartment was 18m2 (but maybe even smaller?) and I paid 680 euros + EDF monthly, in the 17eme. It was a tiny shoebox and I hated it and life was miserable in Paris. :) Definitely NOT a city for me.
The only explanation for this price is the location... The price is insane !!
my neighbor in the 11th pay the same amount and it's a bit smaller ( but more updated) so no the price is correct
@@amyrocks88ss Ahah of course le 11eme is expensive, but less than where Damon lives ! I lived in le 11eme for 1 year I was paying 1000€ for a really really better apartment! Airbnb really takes advantage of tourists
1 1 Airbnb Hosts*
Actually it’s not lol that’s just Paris lol 😂
@@Mlpitigoi Yeah but I do think it depends on the location he definitely could've gotten a bigger apartment for the same price
The (oui) in the title kills me hahahhahaha
Minimum wage for a full-time job is around 1000€, so I guess I'm never gonna live in Paris haha (too crowded for me anyway). In Strasbourg I was able to buy a place (tiny but very cosy, with a real bathroom and big bathtub, and a mezzanine floor big enough for a big mattress and some furniture, so even if the place was tiny I had a real living-room with sofas and everything) and I paid only 500€ a month for the bank loan, while beeing on minimum wage, so... prices and rent in capital cities seem so CRAZY to me !... :D
You gotta tell me more I'm tryna buy outside Paris now...
You pay 1,200 euros for 2 rooms in the 3eme arrondissement??? That's really cheap for Paris! Most of people pay 1200 for a 1 bedroom appartement! Do you pay electricity/gas/water or is it included on the price?
Bonjour! Comment vous allez? Can you something? Where do you live? Où habitez-vous?
*It isn't ugly as long as you're in it* 😂❤️️
Paris is officially the most expensive city according to an article I read today on the BBC! 💰 💰
definitely not true, London and NYC are so much worse
Try zürich
Why did he move to Paris? Should’ve just stayed in LA...
This is 100% this rating also includes the services like taxi rides, hairdresser etc
tied with the longest runners, Singapore and Hong Kong. Paris is expensive, but at least it's so cheap for students.
The got the curtain on the wall to cover up those holes but they just brought more attention to it 😂
haha. Those toilets!! I'm in a chambre de bonne myself in the 11th for 450 all incl and it's not too bad. Found it on le bon coin I believe. It is really too bad your place doesn't have any storage and that she left so much stuff. And the colors...oh my. But yeah your location is ideal.
(After being scammed) I found my Paris apartment on Craigslist. The post was made by an American relator for a 30m studio newly redecorated (literally they where still painting when I toured it) straight out of Ikea apartment and with a cave for extra storage. They had just lowered the price to 1380 euros and its in the 6th arr. next to the Luxembourg gardens... I signed the papers the next day and told the owner I honestly never wanna leave!
Omg my experience wasn't nearly as good as yours... you lucky thing! (minus the scamming)
Canadian living in Paris here, and UH I GET YOU SO MUCH ! haha the problem with rent here is that the prices really do not match up to the salaries (vs. NYC..), and that's the scary part
You can try and request some help for your rent, even some foreign students are able to obtain it. Depending on your salary, they can help you cover a good part of your rent and after working for 3 months still depending on your salary, you can also get a bonus each month from the gov too (I think as long you don't make over 1700 euros per month as a single person without kids).
Vs NYC? You think everyone in NYC works on Wall Street?
Am I the only one super sad that Damon and jo are living on two different continents now!
The staircase is absolutely beautiful, walking upstairs is a superb activity boost, the apartment is actually really spacious (judging by the European standards) and your plants are doing so good! And it not being your style propably kinda makes you go out more so it's another pro, isn't it? Sending you all the positive vibes x
Can we talk about how the first day I moved in, my host was like “The key will be under the mat!” But then the day I moved in, there was a painting crew repainting the entire staircase...and they moved all the mats, so I had to explain to the landlord why I looked like was moving in...Oops
“This is your daily Paris” hahahaha THE BLUE AND RED WALLS ARE ICONIC! So happy for you though. About to move overseas myself...very exciting for my life/creative/RUclips journey, less exciting for my interior design sensibilities tbh
fun fact about the toilet noise: in old European buildings, usually there was a toilet somewhere in the hallway (in a special room) that all the residents of one floor shared. that room is where the plumbing channels are situtated. later, when toilets were built into the apartments, the plumbing of these toilets was connected to the main plumbing. however, to work, and flush properly these toilets now need electricity to suck the waste into the main plumbing. the noise is basically that sucking sound
If I lived alone that toilet would scare the hell out of me
Literally a friend of a friend of friend of my dad found the chambre de bonne i live in right now in the 10th arrondissement. It's 14m², but i'm loving it, canal st martin is 20 meters down the street. Happy to call it home!
I'm from Paris and I agree, rents are super expensive but I honestly don't get the price of your apartment, you could get much better than this. The reason why this is so expensive is probably because it's an airbnb
Hey Damon, you can keep some of the dishwear in the oven (since u never use it) and make room for the plates in the cabinet!
If I was the landlord, here's what I would do:
1) I would tear down all the walls and rent it as a loft/1 pièce.
2) Change every window
3) Reconfigure the "foyer"/kitchen/living room space
4) Add a kitchen island that can serve as storage and table at the same time.
5) Reconfigure the bathroom/bedroom space
6) Paint every wall with a pale color so it seems bigger and can be easier to decorate.
Only then, I would have rented this for 1200 euro/month.
So,I found this video extremely interesting!After watching this video I went to search these type of “my apartment tour Paris edition” videos but I could find any like this one,more of those “luxury apartment tour” ones,which I frankly don’t find interesting. So seeing these realistic ones makes me so happy and I would wish there are more of these out there!
That (oui) in the title really let me know that this was about to be an authentic Fréñch expérience🇫🇷☕👌
I love seeing videos of Paris apartments so much.
damn the editing just gets better each video
damon, i started watching you and jo when i was eleven. i’m fifteen now, a freshman in high school, and i’m proud to say that i’ll be spending september 2019-july 2019 in the italian alps on a student exchange program. i want to thank you for inspiring me to-you know it-shut up and go. i couldn’t do it without you. thank you.
y’all i am DUMB i meant july 2020. i can’t even speak english rip
THANK YOU FOR THE SIMS REFERENCE. I miss the room score.
What you said at the end of he video is soooo true. It is how I found mine pretty much. Paris is so tough and stressfull that if you don't know anybody or that you are not rich it is really frustrating. Anyway good luck to anyone who is searching a flat !
Get a sugar daddy and rent a bigger apartment, babes.
I don't like the fact that people are embracing this whole "sugar daddy" thing... i think it's gross and humiliating
@@zeynepolcayl2837 aww you can think what you want with an empty bank account and a studio apartment ill think what i want with my amex black card and my luxury condo... you see the difference Zenx
It's a joke, you weirdo. Gtfoh.
Thank you. Let people do what they want. If a man, or woman wants to provide another man or woman with financial support, then it's their prerogative. I hate it when people pretend to have morals.
@@TubularOfficial hahah yeah, i see the difference.. that i have pride and self-respect and you don't. Do whatever you want it's your life tho.
Took over my friend of friends flat. It's small-ish and in the south of Paris but happy to be here.
Do you know how amazing that apartment is for 1200€ in the middle of the 3ème? You got a good find :D
OK! That's what I thought! I'd give up anything for a good location.
The apartment is pretty big though. Also the shower stuff and the buttons to get in and out of buildings is just normal. Also it's pretty fun pressing buttons it feels ornate.
Je suis arrivée à Paris je connaissais personne j’ai pu avoir une chambre de bonne dans le 6e arrondissement et aujourd’hui je suis dans le 19e ! Je paye 700 € pour 30 m2 (chambre, salon, cuisine, salle de bain). J’ai trouvé ça sur leboncoin !
J’espère qu’on se croisera dans Paris ♥️
Haha those toilets are called "sanibroyeur". They're used mostly in old buildings, in rooms that cannot have normal toilets because of gravity issues, so it needs a mechanical system to evacuate everything when you flush.
I was watching T.V. last night and a California commercial came on and guess whose handsome face i saw? my baby Damon!❤ I screamed lol
Thanks for your tips louer places in Paris! Airbnbs are outrageous.
Thanks for this video! I'm thinking of one day moving to Paris and dreaming of a nicer apartment but I've heard about how tough it is to find a cheap place 😑
if you rich you can have a nice apartment :) if're not, forget it, it's gonna be small, expensive and old. But Paris is still a very nice city ! :)
@@schirley1267 maybe it'll motivate me to become rich hahaha
the word of mouth is so true!! and applying to rent for appartement in paris is a whole process
There is no bidet because
1- there's no room 😂😂😂
2- it's growing out of style in France. When people redo or revamp their bathroom, they get rid of their bidets. If you want a bidet, ( 😂😂😂), every dwelling in Italy has one (or more :D )
Good job on your channel, I like it very much. And if you ever plan on coming to Belgium, I can show you around 😄😄😄
🤣😂🤣🤣😂😅
when you feel relieved after Damon saying "size does not matter" but then get heartbroken after that long ass PAUSE and he says "in terms of kitchens"
i thought you were an ALLY 😔
1200 euros é 5136 reais. Isso é muito dinheiro
Isso é mais de duas vezes o que minha família faz por mês. E nós somos 4 pessoas!
Mesmo pra quem ganha em Euro, 1200 por isso? É só por causa da localização mesmo. Em NY deve ser a mesma coisa.
Pra quem ganha em euros, sai mais barato do q parece ser pra gente. Mas continua bem caro. Porém é Paris né, o preço é por causa da localização, duvido q tenha coisa mto melhor lá por esse preço.
Eu fiz a mesma conta e pensei puta merda quando eu vou CONSEGUIR ir pra Paris??? Porque isso por um mês só, celoko
ahhhh le broyeur des toilettes.... courage ! I think it's frequent in places where in the building there wasn't supposed to be a toilet in this apartment/room back when it was build and installing a broyeur is way easier in terms of plumbing and shit because for toilets that flush normally you have to update plumbings sometimes and in old buildings it's difficult I guess. But I'm not sure... never came across those IRL but I hear about them haha !
San Francisco is the most expensive city I’ve lived in $2800 a month for a two bed one bath ;(
but San Fran is an AMAZING city with AMAZING people..... I get it
John Newmark ehh San Francisco has gone down hill tbh haha
Were you sharing that space? Because $2800 seems far too little for two bedrooms in SF!
adriene02 it was two stories. There was a living room and a courtyard. But yeah, i had roommates haha
For $2800 a month, you'll be able to rent a mansion in South East Asia. lol A 3 bedroom 2 bath costs $500 or less here depending on the location.
"This is not satisfying my room score."
I felt that on a spiritual level.
"Let me show you how loud this toilet is" - Presses button.
Oh thats not so bad. OH NO OH GOD WHAT IS THAAAAAAAAT?
lol this sounded like Phoebe from Friends
I didn't even get started on the video and I already love it hahah. Coming from Brazil to Paris I have friends and family that thinks I'm living my best life (and yes I am), but they have no idea of the living conditions on tiny flats and extraordinary prices! It took me a while to get used to it specially when coming from America but at the same time it's very worth it.
Where are your Paris vlogs? I want more.
the apartment itself is not too bad, it's just the design and decor that's bad. I'm sure if you Marie Kondo that place up, clean, repaint the walls, it has potential of being a very small yet beautiful and cozy place.
We need Japanese style bidets and I will FIGHT anyone who tells me otherwise.
Fellow Parisian here. €1200 is definitely way too much for that place. I know many friends with similarly sized apartments that are only €800-900, but you're right, they're in the outer arrondissements. I do think south of the seine is the best deal though. Some bigger places for less and in general la rive gauche is just a lot more pleasant. (I pay €510 but I'm in student housing so its a bit different lol)
Omg boy, SO TRUE : everyone has a bon plan, or knows someone who knows someone's 3rd cousin's friend, and they got their place like that...
Also wow, I know it's Paris, but 1200 is almost what I make in a month :O Good thing I live in a little town faaar from Paris, where my rent is a quarter of yours ^^
Hey Damon, I’m French and Parisian. Your observations regarding the apartment sizes though relevant are overshadowed by your interspersed general assumptions about parisian households regarding: the shower curtains: we usually have half glass doors or glass « cabins » - so no, we do not shower ànla fraîche with water splashing everywhere, we do have toilets within the bathroom as much as outside; so you unfortunately were a victim of serial exceptions ( désolée )!
Found damon's tinder profile.
Didn't match :
Casting the side eye slightly terrified - at the electrical panel... priceless! Girl in bidet looked legless in that picture...not to scare you, but....
I think I speak for many of us, but I think you should have Jo over to do a review/tour of your apartment!
We had a toilet in Strasbourg that you had to hold a knob down for the entire flush or it didn't empty it. FRANCE!
yep an old toilet :)
Cacilia Why not only in France
@@karima_MK only place I've ever seen it and I've lived in Germany and Poland.
As someone who lives in France too, I loved all the comments about the strange things you can find in French apartments!
That toilet!!!!!
The best part is at 08:17 when he opened the door : white wall, bright wooden floor and much of natural light. I feel like I've been rescued from this over-red-curtained aparment
At my college in Paris they make freshmen live on campus and it's €16000 a year so shoutout to me for becoming impoverished
Mary Noorlander that’s typical for NYU too
lol my room and board at UCLA is $16000 a year... welcome to the club!
I found my apartment via a friend of mine who moved out so we made sure I could have it after him. 610€ per month in the 5th arrondissement and 14 square meter. For the district that’s a steal. V happy about it.
Throw the whole apartment away
You guys if you come to Paris to study and you do not have that much money, or want a bigger apartment for the same price, go live on the outskirts of the city !! Paris is easily accessible with all of the RER, métro etc..

In terms of kitchens 🤣
When in Paris two years ago my student and I payed for an airbnb about $400 for half a month on the 13 arrondissement, proche Place d'Italie. Apparently it could have been way cheaper, but still we loved the apartment facing Rue Tolbiac and close to everything you might need as well as the host who became a great friend.
I could never live in that place lol
BIDETS ARE AMAZING AND UNDERAPPRECIATED!!!
I lost it when Damon pulled that curtain back and it lead to nowhere 😂
Edit: And then the toilet 🤣
the six flight struggle is so real,,,, when i lived in paris one of my roommates didn't want to drink the tap water (it's fine so idk why she didn't want it) so she would buy these giant 2 gallon water jugs for like 3 euros at our store down the street, and me being the nice roommate that i am, would always offer to carry them up the stairs for her. so here i was, two giant jugs of water in my hands, a backpack stuffed full of school stuff and groceries on my back, and a canvas bag filled with more groceries on my arm, trudging up six flights of stairs in an non-air conditioned building in the middle of june, thinking i was going to die. I mean, thankfully i didn't and i made it to my apartment but dear god it was close. and the worst part is she bought those jugs twice a week for four weeks before i convinced her to drink tap water. paris is....... an interesting city. but it's okay because i still love it. :)
Room score in the sims 🤣🤣
no tea, no shade - i think the hallway is the prettiest thing about this apartment tour
i'm from Argentina and we ALL have bidets in our houses. When i travel abroad i dont know how to clean my ass and it's frustrating. Like am i suppossed to handstand in the shower or what????
Americans don’t wash their asses
That apartment is amazing compared for my $1350 Queens, NY apartment. Washer/dryer, separate kitchen - basically luxury.
Girl.. when u walking up the stairs where the boots frommmmk
AH! I DO NOT miss walking up and down the 6 flights of stairs at my old place in Paris. I was in a Chambre de Bonne as well in the 15th arrondissement. Ugh doing laundry was the WORST! Forgetting something after making it all the way downstairs.... UGH. I hated it. 🙃 crawling up those stairs drunk... God was with me.
store dishes in the oven if you don’t use it!
You guys out there living your best lives I’m jealoussss!!
early squad
Damon and Jo, I really appreciate your videos. They’re like a nice slap to the face telling me to stop napping on my life. Thank you.
