That Cathedral is without a doubt the most beautiful building I’ve ever seen. Can’t see enough of it!!!! Thank you for showing it again! Your Germany videos are great Mike!!!!!!
Yeah, I felt quite unsafe when I made a misjudgment and was stranded there after the Metro had closed for the night. It was a bit touch and go as I was being followed... walked in the middle of every road until I got to back to where I was staying. Took an hour...
The cathedral was built over 600 years, from 1248 to 1880. To this day, constant maintenance and renovation work has to be carried out on the building. It is a permanent construction site and involves immense costs every year. There is a joke among the people of Cologne:" If Cologne Cathedral is ever completely finished, the world will end."
@@HeTi226 that is absolutely incredible. No cranes or modern machinery 😳 I can imagine alot of money for the upkeep but to loose it would be terrible. Do they charge a fee to go inside & a tourist shop to help towards the costs? 🇳🇿
@@heatherstephens9295 Entry to the building itself is free. If you want to climb the tower you have to pay, as well as if you want to visit the cathedral treasury. And there are also guided tours that cost something. Yes, there is also a cathedral Shop where the profits from sales benefit the cathedral. But a large part of the costs will proberly be covered by tax money and donations. If you are a member of a Church in Germany, you also have to pay extra church tax.
Your Mom loves you so much.......you are a great son for spending time with her ....My mom died last year .....I wake up everyday thinking...I have to call mom! .....but she is gone. Enjoy the time with her
Dear GIV, please bring back some Belgium Chocolate or just some European milk chocolate because its the best chocolate in the world. And when you get back, Ill pay you double ❤😊❤😊
Safe trip to France for the Olympics. I hope you will enjoy your time there. Journey by train quite good. Your accommodation was good price for time of year and as the Olympics his on. €100=$109 or £85 uk per day. Have a great time.
Thomas is a fantastic generous friend and travel agent to know. He hooked you up big time for all the festivities making your vacation a lot less stressful. Safe travels and enjoy. Looking forward to seeing more soon 🔜
I remember visiting Cologne as a teenager when in school and we were all shocked as good Irish catholic girls to see brothels near the cathedral. Our teachers mad us look at our shoes walking through that town 😂🇮🇪☘️🇮🇪😅🙈
I hope you’re having the best time. I’m watching on RUclips. It’s been amazing. Did you see the two skateboarding guys, one 49 and one 51? It was cool.
Great video! I enjoy that video incredibly a lot I love the Simplicity of it thank you Mike for sharing your experience at the Olympics. I'm so looking forward to your next upcoming videos
The Eurostar train is the same as the ones from London to Paris fast and comfortable.Your Airbub looks rather nice for 100 Euros but like me GIV those stairs I could not do that every day.Enjoy Paris you and Tommy.
Thank you GIV for another adventure in your life. So grateful to Tommy for helping you to accomplish this, and to you for bringing us along! So happy! Hiping you have an amazing time. Excited to see more!
I haven't even watched you video yet❤ just wanted you to know that you always make me feel like I'm hanging out with a good friend ❤and you always make me laugh ❤and if we don't laugh, (very rarely happens I always feel good just visiting with you ❤ Thank you 😊 for letting me know there are still good people out there ❤
GIV, like your Adidas hoodie in the beginning -- very sharp! Very sweet of mama to bring you to the train station so early in the morning. I hope this and your upcoming videos will let us get to know your friend Tommy a little better. He's a handsome man of few words (but very expressive eyes). It's nice that Tommy made the travel arrangements so you can focus on creating content. It's been eons since I was last in Paris; this video makes me want to go back!
During the Olympics, Paris is a safe city. It's full of french cops and foreigner cops (Slovakia, GB, Spain, South Korea, Qatar). Local people do not recognize their city. It's a happy period. But as soon as the Olympics will end, all the crap will be back.
😊What a great trip/adventure. Thank you GIV for pausing at the cathedral. It made me so happy with thoughts about my parents 💕. The German subways/trains/buses are so clean and well organized. I cant wait to see what you and Tommy do there 😃 ... lol POPE YES 🐔
my wife wont go nowere. nowere. she got to travel as a child. Whil i got to work the farm and do nothing. At 63 your channel gives me travel and adventure. Thank you
You are so Blessed 🙏 You have a fun job, wonderful Mother, great friends, travel, & you are in Paris for The Olympics! 🏊🏋️🤼🏌️🤺🚴⛹️🇺🇸🇨🇦🇨🇳🇧🇪🇨🇭GO USA!!!!🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸👍
Tommy looks like he is ready to get wild! Keep him away from the French wine and baguettes! They make French Toast with lots of alcohol in France so make sure Tommy does not order French Toast.

Not only Los Angeles got them you got them in Germany too LOL.. looking through the trash cans and hanging out in the alleys. It's endemic in the human spirit.
Only a few moments into the video and I’m already 😂😂 ♥️ ❤️ the video. The smoking square, the hoodlums, the passenger sleeping, the cat stairs, the CHURCH, and of course THOMMMMASSSSS, thanks for taking care of the GIV. August 2024 🇨🇦🍁 Will now watch the rest of video.
❤🚞 Bonjour OMGIV, çava? How exiting! I remember Nadia Comaneci, Mary Lou , Retten, Greg Louganis... An Olympic wrun on memory lane. Viva la Françe. How exciting to travel with a friend. So sad your mom wasn't able to join you but glad your not traveling alone somewhere in the heartland of France. Maybe one day there will be a GIV Olympic sport competition where athletes bust a move😂🕺💃 🏃🏃♀️🏄🏂🏌🏌️♀️🤺🏇🏋🏋️♀️🚴🚵🤾♀️🤸🤹♀️🤼🤼🤽🤽♀️. Safe travels, have a blast and stay awesome OMGIV
I went to the Cathedral in 1979 when I was a small kid. My mother got her Seiko watch repaired. For the first I had a hot dog and a slush and bought a cassette of BoneyM. My late father was posted in Moscow then and my late brother ( who was born in Moscow and died in Melbourne very young) was left with his Ukranian Nanny.
I’m originally from Brazil, moved to the US since 1996, and live the NorCal. I’ve been to Germany a couple of times and love it. Really enjoy your videos GIV! I also love when you’re GIG and now GIF 😅
@gerrman in venice mike at 4:48 you show the movie poster but you forgot Jimmy Daranti...the guy with the noise behind the counter... it was a carton add on noise so people would know who it was! and you can see that added to to Humphrey and James too.
Nice tour.
GIV. I love your mom’s smile and happy face. She’s a great lady.
That cathedral is absolutely stunnng. Wow, can you do a tour of it.
Thank you Tommy for taking Mike & us to see Paris & the Olympics!
That Cathedral is without a doubt the most beautiful building I’ve ever seen. Can’t see enough of it!!!! Thank you for showing it again! Your Germany videos are great Mike!!!!!!
Pretty cool how during the Olympics with all the extra visitors the metro rail is still able to move everyone.
I love your moms perma-smile 😊
Porte de Clichy, not the best area to live in Paris but to stay there for a few days it's very good and not very expensive, enjoy your stay!
Yeah, I felt quite unsafe when I made a misjudgment and was stranded there after the Metro had closed for the night. It was a bit touch and go as I was being followed... walked in the middle of every road until I got to back to where I was staying. Took an hour...
Tommy is a good strong man. He's got no bullshit. A great friend. That's the feeling i get. Stay safe guys and enjoy!
The Cathedral is amazing !
10:11 Loving that the dude is reppin the Atlanta Braves in France!!! 💯

The Cathedral was impressive! So beautiful!
My Grandparents had the same type of toilet, pull chain.
Stay safe Mike GIV.
Highest respect to the gentlemen that built that cathedral - unreal craftsmanship 🤩

Isn’t it wonderful to travel with an old friend? Another good video, thanks.
I grew up in the French Quarter New Orleans in the 1960s..
So MANY buildings are similar to the ones in Paris... particularly the stairs!

Thanks to Tommy for setting up the trip. ENJOY!
Great to see Paris! I miss it. One of my favorite cities in Europe. Thanks for this! Have fun guys!
Wow! You stayed in Clichy. It's like one of the "hoods" in Paris. It's not as bad as in US cities but for Paris it is. But it's getting better.
Thanks for sharing your travels. I love the bullet trains.
Have a safe trip MIKE my prayers are with you🙏🇺🇸❤️🤍💙🇩🇪🖤❤️💛

Berlin train station (Hauptbahnhof) is quite something. It's on multiple levels.

Thanks Mike! Be safe over there and have fun the most! 9:28, Mike, you're wearing a Sugar Daddy hat. Tourist alert right there! lol
Thank you GIV for your fun videos. You've been taking me all over the world seeing things i may never see. 😍🤟🏻💚
Hi GIV I really enjoy your vids thanks for everything you do from Australia 😊
Make sure to stop at a local cafe the food is really good.
I notice the train is operated by National express, a UK company. In the UK people keep complaining that the trains are foreign owned.
I’m originally from Brazil, moved to the US since 1996, and live the NorCal. I’ve been to Germany a couple of times and love it. Really enjoy your videos GIV! I also love when you’re GIG and now GIF 😅
Those abandoned trains & rails take great pics especially in that fog ...nice🎥📷
Love this video! Can't wait for the next one.
France is always busy. I haven't been back there for years but watching this video feels nostalgic.
You're making me want to travel!
