@@supppsyl I intend to move to France, probably not Paris but I would live to live in the south of France or Lyon. Learning French and manifesting living in France by 2023. Good luck with everything!
Been to Musee d' Or say many times. Yeah, it's great. Although quirky, I enjoy the Pompidou and Roden museums. I loves the information on eating establishments! I will definitely check them out the next time I'm there. I haven't been to Paris in about two years but my regular eating spot is Cosi in the 6th.
If you get an annual Carte Navigo you will just pay 75€ for 5 zones: from CDG airport to ORY airport, from La Defense business district to Disneyland, dowtown Paris to Chateau de Versailles! and if you work , your companie pay half of this amount ! so its gonna get only 37€ to get around the Greater Paris 365 days !!!
Hi Tiff! It's so refreshing to see how enthusiastic you are about Paris! I've had the luxury of visiting Paris, and fell in love with the city!💛💚💙 I will be back again!😇
Thank you for this. I plan on moving to Paris in a few years. You are teaching me so much in what to expect! I will be there in June 2022 to scope out other areas in France as well!
lol, am I really first one to comment. I love visiting Paris, but I don't know if I want to live there long term, but would not mind for 6 months - 1 year experience. Thanks Tiffanie for always sharing your life in Paris with us.
You should consider applying to a program called TAPIF! It’s a French government program that allows fluent English speakers with, I believe, an intermediate-advanced level of French to teach English to k-12 students. It’s 8 months (October-April). I believe they provide just under 1,000€/month. But you only work about 12 hrs/wk and can supplement your income with other jobs! The application cycle opens in October and ends in January if I remember correctly. I think it’s a lot more competitive to get placed in Paris (probably requires advanced level of French and some English teaching experience) but it’s still an opportunity to live in France for 8 months 😌!! I got accepted in 2016 and didn’t go because I wanted to go back to school for another semester 😔 but I think I’m going to apply again this year 😄!! Wish I had taken the opportunity when it was presented smh! If you end up applying, bonne chance 😁🥂!
Hi Tiff. Very informative. Don't forget to mention the council tax. Taxe d'habitation. The monthly ticket of €75 euros is Zone 1 to 5. Other zones in the suburbs are cheaper. Keep the good job. Under 26 year old get lots of discount as far as intertainment is concerned. Glad you injoy Paris
As a Parisian I really like to watch videos like that ! I see my city differently. Paris is very expensive but I think that in a certain way it worths it. 🇫🇷 My favorite arrondissement is the 18 : Montmartre 🌷
@@ChihyuChen0924 Yes you can but a little one ! We name it « studio » it’s around 15 to 25 m2 for the surface area. A pretty good place begins at 1200€ around 1355 usd 😊🙃🙃
Hi Tiff, I live in Paris and I use Orange for my phone/wifi. They have the widest coverage and 5G contracts. They are more expensive but I think it’s worth it especially as they have English-speaking customer service.
Be sure to check out the food markets. We rented an apartment in the 15th for our family last year and stocked up on the most beautiful fresh foods at the neighborhood markets. The prices were fantastic, and the food was gorgeous! Be sure to stop by a local boulangerie and wine shop on your way home.
For transportation if you take the Navigo Pass you don't have to buy extra ticket to take the RER :) Also if you take an annual pass you have a free month. Now you have the Navigo Decouverte, you can charge it when you need it and believe it's cheaper than solo metro/bus tickets.
Yes, L'Atelier des Lumières is absolutely fantastic. A few of the times I have been to Paris, I was able to see two different exhibitions. Anyone going to Paris should set aside a few hours to go.
For your informations, Inner city Paris has the second top cost of living of the world after Singapore. Not everyones as the same lifestyle or means, but be careful, Prices in other area of France are way lower.
How does these prices compare to where you're currently living?! Keep in mind that salaries in France are typically lower than salaries in the United States!!
Hey Tiffany, I just saw your video and I spend a good amount of time in Paris :). I wanted to let you know that for transportation, you should get a Navigo if you haven’t thought about it already. It’s gets you on all forms of transportation (bus, RER, metro, transilien etc) and it lasts you like 5+ years. Let me know if you want more info on that happy to help
Also about museums, if you're from a country in the "Espace économique européen" and you're under 26 it's free, it also works with some monuments if I remember correctly, it's always a good thing to know.
Hello! Thanks for the video! I've been to Paris it's not so expensive as they kept telling me. In Greece the prices are the same, even worse, and the salaries really low.
For your phone plan, if you can afford it, Orange is the best carrier. Sosh uses Orange's network but is on the cheaper side so you should look into that
Hey ! What arrondissement do you leave in and what electricity provider are you with ? I’m French, lived in Paris now in a suburb close to Paris and I’m so surprised with the prices you’re presenting. I live alone in a 40 square meter appartement and I pay not more than 35 euros per month for electricity and 15 euros per month for insurance. Also a 30m2 appartement inside Paris can be from 800-900 euros if you don’t mind living in more popular yet safe areas.
I live in NYC and it’s crazy that the cost of living in Paris is lower compared to NYC. Even when I visited London in 2019, I didn’t find it as expensive compared to NYC, especially compared to the quality of food? Can a Parisian with an average salary afford €1100 rent?
No, French wages are way lower than American ones that's why most people who work in Paris live in the suburbs or even more than an hour away to have a better lifestyle than in the suburbs. Other French cities are way cheaper. An average salary in France is often between 1400 € and 2000 € per month ( even lower for some people ) and landlords often ask you to have an income three times bigger than the rent, that's why students need a garantor.
@@jujublue4426 Am I understanding that french suburbs are not very safe or compared to the french cities, not as safe? I guess I’m thinking of how in America suburbs are more residential and therefore safer compared to the cities, except for certain crime such as property crime.
@@jannellmcbride1922 It depend you have rich suburb (west of paris like Versaille or Neuilly) and more pore suburb (principally to the est) like Sevran or Bobigny but inside these suburb you have calm sectors and only few hot points principally building of public housing with low rent (it's simple is literraly long bar of appartment or 15 floors towers) in fact people are not very dangerous they just sell weed and make noise just avoir these sector the night if you are a woman but generally they are not very violents it's not like USA it's more complicated to found a weapon here it's rare and they don't use on others people if they found a gun it's more for rival gangs members generaly it's more safe I prefer to walk in Aulney the night than downtown or east los angeles or san francisco the day
Hi Tiffany, We're visiting Paris next month through a small University at the top of the city. They've booked us in the 18th, we've never been there, what's It like? Thanks!
Hi Tiff, I don't know if you'll read this, but I just wanted to thank you. I'm moving to Paris in 20 days and I needed some guidance, your videos are GOLD. I wanted to ask you if the 19th arrondissement is dangerous to live in, or is it fine ? Thank you girl
First things first... I needed the mauve jumpsuit details in the fashion video😍 Regarding living costs - I’ve only lived in NYC and the Bay Area... Paris seems about the same.
I live in Wellington NZ and it costs about $1600 a month in living, but usually more honestly. Crazy that paris is almost cheaper than nz when it offers so many more experiences and things to see and do... wish we could travel! 🥰
Do they not have the Carte de Muse any more? You mentioned museums under free fun and waiting in line. We used to get a Carte de Musee weekend pass and could skip the lines.
I’m currently 16 so I have time to plan and study French, but I’ve been stressing on how I’d even move abroad as I nobody I know has moved out of the states. Do I prepay rent for an apartment and try to get a job after I’ve moved? Do I try and get a job before I move? Would it be better to have a roommate? Is the paperwork crazy?? Should I start saving now?? I know I have time before I move but I’ve been having thoughts on me getting stranded in France because I was unprepared
Very informative....thanks so much. I color my own hair and go to Supercuts and have a great lady who cuts it. I think what you are paying for rent is great. It sounds like some of the prices here where I live. Great video. Stay safe.
General cost of living is about the same here in Australia, except for French cheeses of course, which is obviously due to freight costs. Beauty treatments are a little more expensive though, however wages are higher here so that would explain the higher costs.
Hey Koko where in Australia do you live? I always thought that Australia is a lot more expensive than European cities 🙈 btw if you’re looking for something to watch, I have a channel with content from London, Italy and lifestyle videos☺️
The 15th isn't expensive at all. The 6th is very expensive and sooooo posh. That's the area to be. And for transportation, if you're a student you must be 26 and under. I found that out the hard way since being an older student isn't a thing there like in the states.
There are doctorates in France but most students only study for 5 years, the ones studying longer are rarer. But you still need to study longer when you're a medical student or want to lecture in university for example. Sometimes there are older adults but they are rare.
I remember the last time I visited Paris. I was crying in the airport cause I had spent so much money!! 😂😂 oh god! But ok… I mean, it’s Paris! Tiny hotel rooms, expensive food which I couldn’t eat cause I m Greek and we don’t use butter but again it’s Paris and I love it for many many things. Who doesn’t want to live there??
For the metro ticket, daily or monthly pass, does the price depend on the zone? For eg. in London you can split your pass, so if you're only travelling within zone 1-2 which is proper central London it's one price and then zone 2-6 is a different price. There also used to be a zone 1-4 & a zone 1-6 which obviously was the most expensive due to the inclusion of zone 1...i think they still make these for tourists but its a lot easier just to get friends an oyster and just too up as you go as it does get capped and if you use the bus you can pay 1 fare for upto 3hop-ons if you make your trip is within 1 hr I think, so great for running errands. Is that the same in Paris?
Hi Tiff, enjoyed this so much . I was wondering how often you have to get your hair done. Many of the prices you mentioned, nails, rent food etc. are very close to the prices here in San Antonio, Texas. But our internet is $140.00 per month.Which includes many channels, but not Netflix, utube or movie channels. Love your show. You are very fun to watch.
I’m a boy living in California and I’ve never paid less then 100 for a mani pedi with either clear coat or no polish at all. I’m moving to paris soon and I’m genuinely shocked at 25 euro wow😭
Good day, I have a few questions unrelated to the video, can I live in Paris without being fluent in French, or only beginning to learn French and what about crime in Paris. I am a pharmacist (black ), thinking about moving to Paris for retirement .
I believe many people, including Tiffanie (if I’m not wrong), are not yet fluent in the language but live in France. Generally, you don’t need to be fluent to live in France. However, learning as much as you can will only help you in the long run. Of course, you should probably have enough knowledge of the language to get around (shop, ask questions, etc...). Also, there are actually many places in Paris that offer French courses for Anglophones! As for crime, I would say to just be cautious and aware. Just like you would be in any city. To elaborate, I’d say just be aware of the way you carry yourself. I’d say you should walk around confidently and try to make yourself not stand out because pickpockets in Paris tend to target possible tourists. One thing you should know is that you should not sign anything on the side of the street! It is common for pickpockets to have fake petitions so that they can distract you while you’re getting robbed! Generally Paris is a great city and I have no doubt that you’d love it there, but just be mindful!
This is already more affordable than living in Santa Cruz, California. I pay 1,500 for a much smaller space than yours. But can you do a video on healthcare as an expat? Like more of the bureaucratic bs that’s hard to learn about until you’re there in the thick of it. I used to live in Paris studying abroad so your videos are fun for me to reminisce and dream of returning!
I live in south of France and for me Paris is very expansive. My flat is twice bigger for a little price and a coffee in a terrasse is cheaper etc. Can't leave in Paris because I need space to live ahah
Living in Paris is average or expensive depending on which angle one can look at it. If… only if an average person can make around 3000-3500 euros a month in salary clean money after taxes…. One can live super comfortable in Paris but it’s not the case ….
A small detail, if i understood you correctly for the housing allowance CAF is the entity giving it (caisse d'allocations familiales) and the allowance is the APL (aide personnalisée au logement). It is not for students only but mainly based on previous year income. Foreign students often don't apply to it believing it's only for families, good advice to point its existence!
In indian you will live sooo comfortable with this amount of money like literally we pay 0.59 euro for eyebrows n for this much apartment rent you be living in 4 5 bhk with best accomodations bt still paris is paris no comparison
What about rent leases? Do landlords hike up the rent every year? Also if someone isn't in the corporate world, is it harder to find a job as an American? I'm an academic Librarian, but I speak Spanish and English.
The rents evolve according to an index given by the state. So it increases every year but very slightly. Overall the tenants are very protected. For work I don't know, but outside the big cities, we speak rather badly English in France. Just, my sister is a college librarian in France. She had to pass a specific diploma.
Setting the intention that I will be living in Paris by this fall.
Me too sis 🙏🏽 It’s looking like early spring 2022 for me !

Many of the prices you mentioned, nails, rent food etc. are very close to the prices here in San Antonio, Texas. But our internet is $140.00 per month.Which includes many channels, but not Netflix, utube or movie channels. Love your show. You are very fun to watch.
I usually get my hair done every 6 weeks!! Oh wow $140 a month - I think that's similar to what I was paying in NYC. Glad you enjoyed the video!
It seems you haven't had a job in a long time. How can you live without a job there?
I work for myself now :)
@@TiffanieDavis Yasss sis, get your whole life! its a beautiful thing. Also I love your channel
@@TiffanieDavis jobs are overrated ! Proud of you 😊
I’m a boy living in California and I’ve never paid less then 100 for a mani pedi with either clear coat or no polish at all. I’m moving to paris soon and I’m genuinely shocked at 25 euro wow😭
Musee d'orsay is definitely my FAVORITE museum in Paris!!!!!!
Organic eggs in key west florida $7.99, lactose free organic milk $5.98, Italian bread sourdough bread $5.98. Gel manicure $40.
What about income tax, housing tax, medical, insurance? Important things like this?
Good day, I have a few questions unrelated to the video, can I live in Paris without being fluent in French, or only beginning to learn French and what about crime in Paris. I am a pharmacist (black ), thinking about moving to Paris for retirement .
I believe many people, including Tiffanie (if I’m not wrong), are not yet fluent in the language but live in France. Generally, you don’t need to be fluent to live in France. However, learning as much as you can will only help you in the long run. Of course, you should probably have enough knowledge of the language to get around (shop, ask questions, etc...). Also, there are actually many places in Paris that offer French courses for Anglophones! As for crime, I would say to just be cautious and aware. Just like you would be in any city. To elaborate, I’d say just be aware of the way you carry yourself. I’d say you should walk around confidently and try to make yourself not stand out because pickpockets in Paris tend to target possible tourists. One thing you should know is that you should not sign anything on the side of the street! It is common for pickpockets to have fake petitions so that they can distract you while you’re getting robbed! Generally Paris is a great city and I have no doubt that you’d love it there, but just be mindful!
Thanks for the video. Quick question: how long are the leasing terms at apartments?
1 year or 3 years, generally.
I love your videos! I hope I can visit Paris someday soon.
can you share information on where you find furnished apartments in Paris?
I Think Bouygues is Cheap and very functional.
Btw Movie monthly pass is around 22 euros, 34 euros is for a couple I think.
.-)
What about health insurance?
This is already more affordable than living in Santa Cruz, California. I pay 1,500 for a much smaller space than yours. But can you do a video on healthcare as an expat? Like more of the bureaucratic bs that’s hard to learn about until you’re there in the thick of it. I used to live in Paris studying abroad so your videos are fun for me to reminisce and dream of returning!
Hello love, can you provide the link for your VPN?
Hey! It’s called unlocator - unlocator.com/
Great vlog, Tiff! How did you find your apartment, and which arrondissement is it in? Thanks in advance for any response you can provide!
Headed there next year, where are the best shopping deals?
You have to come for the Paris sales! Once in January and another in June/July!!
I use Orange but to be honest they are all about the same. Qui Branly is a very nice museum too.
I'm in a large city in the Northeast US. These prices are quite similar to what I'd expect to pay for a similar apartment, restraunt meal, etc.
Great video Tiffanie! Compared to Amsterdam it is bit more expensive.
Really enjoy your vlogs
Check out Lidl supermarket you’ll save money on food. Their stuff is great not a huge vegan option tho.
I live in south of France and for me Paris is very expansive. My flat is twice bigger for a little price and a coffee in a terrasse is cheaper etc. Can't leave in Paris because I need space to live ahah
Living in Paris is average or expensive depending on which angle one can look at it. If… only if an average person can make around 3000-3500 euros a month in salary clean money after taxes…. One can live super comfortable in Paris but it’s not the case ….
the fun park that's close to the Louve is definitely a fun thing to do (if its currently open)
Yess are you referring to Jardin du Palais Royale?
A small detail, if i understood you correctly for the housing allowance CAF is the entity giving it (caisse d'allocations familiales) and the allowance is the APL (aide personnalisée au logement). It is not for students only but mainly based on previous year income. Foreign students often don't apply to it believing it's only for families, good advice to point its existence!
I miss being under 26 and getting to go to places for free!
In indian you will live sooo comfortable with this amount of money like literally we pay 0.59 euro for eyebrows n for this much apartment rent you be living in 4 5 bhk with best accomodations bt still paris is paris no comparison
What about rent leases? Do landlords hike up the rent every year? Also if someone isn't in the corporate world, is it harder to find a job as an American? I'm an academic Librarian, but I speak Spanish and English.
The rents evolve according to an index given by the state. So it increases every year but very slightly. Overall the tenants are very protected.
For work I don't know, but outside the big cities, we speak rather badly English in France. Just, my sister is a college librarian in France. She had to pass a specific diploma.
When I lived in Italy we just never had a tv or a telephone. Costs were high back in the day. Not sure if it is now.
Where did you live in Italy?? 😍
I lived in Milan for 4 years and now make content about life there and London where I’m at the moment ☺️
What happens if you have more than 1 tv set?
You only pay once a year, whatever if you have 1, 2 or more TVs.
