    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.

    I am personally besotted with the Eiffel Tower. The iron work is amazing and to think it was only originally meant to be temporary is mind blowing. Imagine Paris today without it?! It's probably not the done thing to want to climb it , too "touristy" but the views from it and sheer scale of the architecture is a must in my book. I love how the one time I visited Paris I was able to find my way alone on foot just by orientating myself by where I was in relation to her 😊 My dream is to live in Paris where I can see it from my tiny apartment balcony 🥰

    I often look up the cafes and restaurants you visit on Google maps and it was so funny to see the pictures of the reviews of Le Peloton with you in the background or a picture of Cooper up on the wall of the cafe. Looks like a great place!

    Great to see the Peleton again. I think that’s an excellent touch that they’re commemorating the women’s march on Versailles in the marathon. That’s going to be great!

    Yup, can't wait to finish my marathon August 10th at Hotel de Ville :)

    Yep, looks like late 80's / early 90's dental office - spot on! Love the fact that you highlight the latest fashion trends out of Paris!

    I went to Peleton and had the sun dried tomato and goat cheese. I recreate it here in Germany as often as I can.

    Me and my family will be going to the Olympics this year, I've been watching your videos (and The Frenchies' videos) since we booked the tickets. Would be so cool if we were to run into any of you celebrities!

    Every time I ride past Hotel de Ville I feel those big billboards they put out look like they've been faded by the sun. Strange design choice.

    How about an update episode with Paul and Le Peloton Cafe? But I do respect that you probably would like to keep your regular haunts private. Cheers to the daily episodes for however long they last.

    I was wondering if you were still going to the Peleton? I havent seen you there in a while. I loved visiting there a few years ago.

    Thought the Hotel de Ville was destroyed during the Paris commune’s time and rebuilt after?

    • @JaySwanson
      @JaySwanson  2 месяца назад

      Burned and rebuilt but I don't think it was totally destroyed? Could be wrong about that though

  • @TheCarlrivera

    The decor on the facade of hotel is surprisingly unsophisticated for most of the campaigns and decor I’ve seen them do elsewhere and recently

    • @JaySwanson
      @JaySwanson  2 месяца назад +1

      Yeah, hoping for some leveling up

    As a flag nerd, I gotta ask. What's the flag that's flying way up high at 6:54 ? I think it's yellow?

    • @JaySwanson

      That's BHV, the department store. Their color is orange!
