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.

Feeling a chill? You need to dress it up a bit. Order your PIMP shirt now! store.parisinmypocket.com I'm so excited to see them come to life 🥳🥳
Ordered 2 of each. So excited! Congrats on completing your project!
Been living in Ile de France for 3 decades (almost 30 years) , I’m not gonna watch it or even attend the Olympic Games. The tickets are bloody expensive. Already been around hundred times

Aww! Les Frenchies!! The crossover I always wanted! Both of you were very helpful in planning my Paris trip last May. You all rock! A big thank you. ❤
Yes❤ You are my top 2 you tube influences on Paris.
I was so excited to see them together :)
Same here. Lots of great info from both but missing Colleen here unless she was the camera person.
Same! Yay!!!
Me too! These two channels made my trip a dream two years ago and I still watch both to this day!
As someone who was born and raised in London, I can honestly say during the 2012 Olympics, I have NEVER seen a better vibe on the streets and in neighbourhoods and the vast majority of people never had tickets, but the feel good vibe was infectious and pride in showing off our city. I hope Paris goes through the same (at least temporary) transformation!
Yeah but London is a massive city, also the Olympic park was a massive open space. Paris is tiny and all the events will be crammed in the historic city centre with narrow streets. Big difference
Same in Vancouver in 2010.❤
@@tomlengyelgb No plenty of events are scattered in the Greater Paris or even in the rest of France (including at least one in Polynesia).
There are several events in Saint Denis, some in La Défense, others in Versailles, etc.
The core of London is pretty comparable to Paris, or even smaller.
The way of thinking the city as only the proper core is confusing and misleading.
Except for the opening ceremony, which will be held in the core along a 6 or 7 kilometers stretch of the Seine River, most of the high attendance events will be held in locations that are used to receive large crowds : Bercy Arena, La Défense Arena, the new La Chapelle Arena, SQY velodrome, Stade de France, the new Olympic swimming pool next to the stadium, Roland Garos stadiums, Parc des Princes, etc.
The only fairly large location in the center is the Concorde square site, which has plenty of wide access points. No events will be held in the narrow streets of the Marais or Latin Quarter...
The historical sites where there will be temporary structures will only host as many spectators as they can hold and are used to receive on highly touristic days.
These touristic locations can receive several dozen thousands of visitors on an average high season day. The difference is that the visitors will mostly be Olympic ones, but the number will not be significantly higher than on a busy touristic day.
All the highest attendance events (except the opening ceremony as I mentioned) will be held either in the core's periphery, in the double digits arrondissements, or outside the core.
Like the stadiums and sports equipment near the inner ring road, etc.
For example, the temporary arena on the Champ de Mars near the Eiffel Tower is not huge, it will be like a mid size tennis court tribune.
There's a list of venues and events, just read it, you'll see.
As usual in France, there's a pretty irrational panic, sometimes a bit voluntary as a quick and easy look at the list of where each event is held would reassure most people in a jiffy.
So don't listen to the usual craze in France.
The Frenchies just love to complain and worry excessively... (I'm French and the more it goes, the less I can stand this bad French habit to cry wolf for every single thing or event. Because it's now to a point where it starts to become a self-realizing prophecy, ruining everything in advance).
Finally my two favorite channels together!!! Yay
I'm a patreon supporter. I also enjoy watching Les Frenchies! I'm also a 'people like me and you' (4:36) - and my wife and I are going to the Olympics! Not corporate at all. We just love Paris that much! And we love the Olympics too. A few years ago when we heard the olympics would be in Paris we both knew we HAD to attend. Saved. Planned. Making it happen. CAN'T WAIT!!!
Oh I'm so jealous. I just visited Paris for the first time early this month and I wish I can afford to be back to see the Olympics Games. I love Paris sooooo much. Everything is so beautiful and so Grand and have the Olympics there is just icing on the cake. Have great time watching the Olympic Games in the most BEAUTIFUL CITY I THE WORLD. 😊
I am coming to Paris with my daughter and parents. We have tickets to a few things, but also hoping it’s just fun all around!
Same! My partner and I are normal people, and are here for the summer as usual, including the olympics. Things seem normal(ish) thus far, though there are all these stories of doom and the city being unlivable that fly in the face of the available evidence and documentation - I'm skeptical until I see it! We humans have an amazing capacity for imagining the worst scenario and believing it.
Jay & Les Frenchies - Your respective guides were really useful during our Summer 2023 trip to Paris. Merci! Also, because we travelled pre-Olympics, we benefited from resources clearly enhanced with the Olympics in mind. The Ile-de-France Mobilities transit app is extremely well designed and an awesome tool. If you choose, you can even re-load your Navigo Easy card. In 2012, we were living in London (outer suburbs). We just avoided the core of central London during the Olympics and everything was status quo.
And on a final note…..Jay, you called this one first…. Le Blé Sucré……OMG…….😍 I wish I had a way to teleport to that bakery from Toronto each morning! Great work to you both!
We enjoy the Frenchies. We enjoy you. They are truly a delightful couple. We love the education we get from you and Antoine and Colleen, Chantal, Vero, our old friend Corey Frye. You all brought us through the pandemic and much credit goes out to you all.
I love Vero, too! :-)
thanks!
I’ve seen people on forums who are booking their dream trips for Paris in August who didn’t realize that it was during the Olympics. I feel horrible for them because they won’t be able to really experience Paris, just Olympic crowds and hassles without seeing the games, sites, or normal pace of the city.
I'm one of those persons sadly. I'll be arriving on Bastille day and leaving 3 days later just before the commencement of Olympics. But I'm sure I'll be impacted 😢
I would think that hotel prices would be a tipoff.
I will go one week before the Olympics 😭😭
I am one of those people who is going there for a day on my europe trip. I am gonna embrace it. It’s a once in a lifetime opportunity to be in an olympic city and see Paris for the first time.
@@andreasanlous too. 😅
THIS IS MY DREAM COMBO. Thank you so much. I am a devoted follower to both podcasts.
Oh my goodness, my two favorite Paris vloggers in one video! You and Les Frenchies are the ones I watch most regularly. Now if we could only get French Frye in Paris to come back to making videos, i'd have the trinity!
I am not a corporation and I will be there with my husband. It is a bucket list type of dream. We still have booked things like Normandy and Versailles on our off days from having tickets. We will be traveling to marseille for sailing and football as well. Majority of the time we will be in Paris.
Me too, I’ll be there!
Nice work, i was walking across the street & had a quiet giggle as I saw you talking..
having my European tour now to avoid the congestion of the olympics.
Aw, you could have said hi 👋 We had a great time. Hope the tour goes swimmingly!
I totally would have geeked out and gone over to say hi 😂
@@MamaBakly I would have also. Was just there in October and kept an eye out 🙂. I did run into Cory Frye on the street and interrupted him. No shame. Lol.
The best crossover in France! Yes!!
Great collaboration with Antoine. I'm in the "flee the city" and watch on TV --- my main driver is the summer heat! Last summer almost undid me and Olympics or no, HOT in Paris is no fun; even most luxury hotels cant cool a room like Americans expect!
Jay and Antoine! Well done (missed Colleen).
The summer heat is a real thing.
My wife and I will be in Paris before the Olympics. I hope there won't be any pre games restrictions. My only sadness is I won't be able to see any of the Tour de France. Really enjoy your intimate perspective on Paris Jay. Les Frenchies is very informative, too. Definitely my two favourite channels.
Thanks! I hope you have a great time visiting in spite of the extra challenges
Oh my gosh!!! Jay & Les Frenchies...dream team!! Both your channels helped to make my trip to Paris last year a seamless and WONDERFUL experience. I loved it so much, my son and I are coming back this year and adding London. So in the next year, I look forward to a Jay, Les Frenchies and @LoveandLondon collab ;)
We'll keep at it I'm sure. Antoine and I can talk for hours
I love Les Frenchies! I geek out when collabs like this happen! Jay if you decide to stay will you make a long form video of your Olympic experience?
I'll be sure to show you what I see!
OMG. 😱 My best two guys that I follow and watch in a daily basis are together in this video blog. Oh how so cool is this. You two have made our Paris trip early this month easy as I've watched all the tips and trick on how to navigate the city and where to stay and eat and most importantly not to get scammed and also to be mindful of pick pockets and I can say that we had a great and wonderful time visiting Paris and thanks to the both you two.😊
I hope we get to see more video blogs of you two in the future and hope Colleen will be in it too.❤ Thank you guys👍
You're most welcome! They're a great resource to be sure (and lovely folks to boot)
Both of your channels really helped me plan this trip. Love both channels.
coming for the Olympics. We are excited!
Me too! Hope you have a great time!
Good stuff! I ran into Les Frenchies last summer in Paris when I was there for Roland Garros, they couldn't have been nicer!
The ultimate Paris power duo! What a pleasant surprise! 💜
I was in LA during the 1984 Summer Olympics (I danced in opening & closing ceremonies) - It was an amazing time to be there....All of the residents were warned not to drive and people just stayed home if they weren't attending so the freeways were clear and wide open. The mood was joyous because basically, everyone that was out was on vacation or an athlete. The Best!
Aaaaaww Bonjour Jay and Les Frenchies!! What a treat my two fave Paris vloggers together in one vlog woohoo!🙌 ❤ Merci beaucoup!
It's awesome to see the two people together that I watched last year while preparing for my first trip to Paris last May. Now I am watching you both again while preparing for my second trip to Paris this May with my daughter, who is an art major. Thank you both for all of your very helpful information.
To see the two groups I follow on one vlog is great. Cannot wait to get to Paris in May.
We originally planned for a trip in mid July, then after doing my research I found out the Olympic Games will be in Paris in July that’s when we decided to make the change for the first week of June. We don’t want to feel like sardines walking around in Paris! It’s already a busy tourist spot, don’t need extra millions of people around the time we visit this beautiful city.
Awesome! my two favorite French RUclips channels. Couldn't stop smiling. Thanks so much!
I originally planned to come to Paris for my 50th birthday. I looked into hotels and was like, "WTH is going on?" Then it dawned on me, THE OLYMPICS! Nevermind. If you want to visit Paris, don't go during the Olympics. If you want to go to the Olympics, then go to Paris. We went up to Vancouver BC during the 2010 Olympics and it was a blast, but we didn't see Vancouver as you usually do - we saw the visiting country venues, the sports venues, met Scott Hamilton and Michelle Kwan. We would be sorely disappointed to try to visit Paris in early August and not get to see PARIS. It'll be an interesting experience, I'm sure, but I'll save my trip to Paris for another time. 😉
Oh!! And! Love Les Frenchies! Fun hearing his take. 👍😁
That's a great distinction. If you want to go to the Olympics, then go to Paris
Great to see one of Les Frenchies on your channel. I will be in Paris for July and will be leaving the day the games start. My city hosted the Winter Olympics and it was a fun time. The city was mostly open and people were friendly and having a good time. I hope it is the same for Paris.
Excellent would like to see more collaboration. Love Les Frenchies.
They're great!
We really enjoyed your chat with Les Frenchies - you all are our favorite bloggers!
Love Les Frenchies...and your guide ( I got it when it was only available as a PDF)...keep up the great work!
Thank you! Will do!
I follow both of you. Cool to see you two hanging out. We live a block from the Scene. We will only hear the ceremony live from our apartment. LOL. Prices are outrageous.
Hope it's good music XD
Well what a surprise. My favourite people Jay and les Frenches. We learnt from you both for our holiday in Paris not long ago. Lovely watching this.
Happy we could help!
I’m an “old” and spent most of my life in Los Angeles. I lived there in ’84 and we were all dreading how awful the traffic and crowds were going to be when we hosted the games. What we feared and what happened were completely opposite. So many locals left L.A. that during the games, for those of us who remained, it was a joy to behold. Traffic was much less than usual.
Now, because Los Angeles is so widely spread out, and there is no public transport, traffic was the big issue we dreaded. Aside from that, no one cared what the effect would be. Paris is a different place, in terms of public transport and where the events will be hosted (in terms of distance). Regardless, if enough of the local population leaves, Paris may very well be a lot less crowded than you might assume. And don’t worry about not wanting to spend 3000 Euro and not get to see an event live, it’s better to watch on TV, trust me.
The games, and the corporate sponsorships and hosting is a lot different now. Everything may be so closed off that you won’t even be able to take advantage of what may likely be a city less crowded than you assume. If not, well, so it goes.
What I’m most excited about are the planned changes to Paris AFTER the games (such as the plans for the Place de la Concorde). That’s going to be awesome.
The decrease in traffic after as a result could be wonderful 🙏
WHAT! Y’all know each other?! I subscribe to both you guys channels. To see you all cross-over like this is like two Christmas’s!!!! 🙂 *THIS IS WONDERFUL*
Two of my favorite RUclipsrs! Merci beaucoup for sharing your recommendations.
Excited to see the progress on Notre Dame
we had the same in London in 2012. they spent millions of staffing tube and train stations and turned out everyone left. in the morning everyone went out to the olympic park in east lonson and central london was ghost town all day for weeks. Most annoying thing was people in yellow vests insisting on you exiting stations out the long way round ..when the station was practically empty. It was impossible to get tickets so most people gave up and left. Big scandal in first week the amount of empty seats. All the corporate clients just not bothering to turn up. They filled it will army personnel. Luckily london set the standard where the olympic park didnt become a desert the years after. They built lots of home albeit bloddy expensive ones. And my tube station got a new exit ...which was nice..though it cost 18 billion!!!!!
I love this collaboration!! Love Les Frenchies!!
🥂🥂
So fun to see you with Antoine. I was fortunate to be able to join them at their meet-up in November and Antoine, Colleen and Vincent are such nice folks. Their videos are some of the best available on Paris and France.
My two favourite RUclipsrs 💙🤍❤️. This is the RUclips equivalent of a Justice League meetup.
😆
My absolute 2 favorite RUclips channels to watch! So nice to see the both of you together.
It sounds like the conversations we had in London before the 2012 Olympics, and everyone was proved wrong. The security was tight, but not obtrusive, it was all done with good humour by our armed forces, but must admit, this was only at the venues. The vibe in the city was amazing, people started talking to strangers on the tube, although it did help that Team GB did so well. Although tickets were hard to get, the IOC were forced in the end to return unused cooperate tickets, which allowed more people to attend. I am sure Paris will be a success, and you will be as proud as I was, that my City succeeded in pulling off the greatest show on earth.
It's a high bar and I hope we clear it 🙏
I had the best time in London for the Olympics. Your city did a great job hosting!
Wow...from 7 years ago to right now - SUCH a difference in style (and it's fab....)
What fun! I watch you both and this is great.
Wonderful seeing you and Antoine together! Between you and Les Frenchies and Gil Soltz (Moontown travel), you all have really helped make our travels so much fuller and more interesting. Shout out to Colleen, too!
Glad you enjoyed it!
OMG Jay and Les Frenchies together!!! Made my day!!! Please make more videos together!
Great video, Jay! I love Antoine’s realism & perspective. He’s an interesting dude for sure. I would absolutely like to see you guys mix it up again.
I think a fascinating topic between you guys would be to speak to your perspectives on where you both were, where you are now, and where you foresee your futures in Paris (or otherwise).
He’s a Frenchman that moved to the states and never imagined returning to the city of his birth, and yet, here he is. And obviously you being an American in Paris and seemingly having no plans on returning to your country of birth, is very interesting.
At any rate, that’s just what I think, Jay! Cheers! ☕️
I have been waiting for this collab for awhile! Definitely 2 of my favorite France/Paris based RUclips channels! ❤❤
I booked for April and didn't even realize the Olympics was in Paris this year, lol at least we should beat the craze in the summer
Yippee... my two favorite Paris loving RUclipsrs together!!!
🏆 Fantastic collab & outstanding chat/info, thanks guys! Binge-watching both of y'all (since Les Frenchies began, actually) not only made our first trip to Paris (last Spring) off-the-charts but also inspired me in many other ways. Continuing to thoroughly enjoy your regular content, thanks again always 🙌
This is Fantastic! I love Les Frenchies videos. I've watched and shared many of their videos as we prepare for our school trip to Europe. To have both of you together is a treat I am sharing with my advising group.
Great to see you both together! We'll be there for the Olympics (arriving a couple of days *after* the opening ceremonies), and we're definitely from the "Regular Joe" crowd. I completely agree with your "once in a lifetime experience" take, which is why we're willing to pay a little more and be part of the big crowds. Looking forward to enjoying your city!!!
I hope you have the best time! I'm going to make the most of it
Hey I’ll be there too!! I hope it’s a good time as it usually is. Enjoy 🎉
Two of my favorite vloggers together! Les Frenchies made my culinary experience in Paris in October a resounding success! And Jay is my coffee bloodhound. Love it! Great video guys, Antoine please tell Colleen we missed her today. Sorry about your city during the Olympics. I certainly would leave for that, but with all the choices of alternate places to enjoy I am sure I wouldn't regret leaving my favorite city to the crowds and high prices! Thanks for the smiles this morning!
I'm hopeful that it will be fun!
We will be in Paris the first two weeks in July for the first time. We are excited and hoping for the best.
Les Frenchies! A dream collab, I'm happy to see it. Yeah, I'm traveling to Paris later in the year and avoiding the Olympics was a priority.
Jay I really enjoyed your chat with Antoine, and am glad I visited Paris in May of 2023. Your recommendations and those made by the Frenchies helped make my visit a truly enjoyable one. All the best from Canada!
This is great to hear. We are coming in May and worried the city would be all hidden in preparation for Olympics!
I certainly hope not!
I watch both you and the Frenchies! I love that you got together for a chat!
We can chat for a long time 😆
I am a huge fan of both you and Les Frenchies. I am also going to be in Paris the whole month of June avoiding the Olympics completely. Hope to see you and/or Antoine and Colleen out and about so l can wave at you all! I won't stop to talk or intrude in your life, just a thank you wave!! Please pet Cooper for me!😂😂😊
I would love to walk around the corner and see these guys hanging out!!!
We couldn't stop gabbing
A fan of both channels! Great to see both of you together. Coming to Europe this fall, but avoiding Paris because of the Olympics.
@ luizucchetto2528
I love them also, Les Franchise, & Jay
You two are my favorite Paris vloggers!! Thanks for the collab and great video. ❤
Our pleasure!
We love Les Frenchies! Met them last Thursday during our Paris Trip!
They're great!
Love seeing Les Frenchies joining you. I’ve been watching you for about five years but I found them about a year ago when prepping my trip to Paris last summer.
Also, interesting about the church. We have eaten at a cafe across the street on three occasions and looked across at the church. I remember one night some guys running through the scaffolding - didn’t sense they were workers! That was June of 2018 so that fits the timeline you mentioned. I haven’t made it inside that one but maybe the next time I’m there!
As for the Olympics, I’m really not interested in those sports. I may watch since it’s Paris. But I decided years ago that we would avoid Paris on any trip this year - and we have done at least one night in Paris on every trip. But we are scheduled to there for one night in late August so my wife can fly home out of CDG - I’ll have a couple of more days so I may venture in for one night. Will have to see. I was in college in Atlanta during the prep for 1996 - moved out of state when I graduated and missed the actual Games - and from what I have heard it can be disruptive. But Paris has much more to see and do than Atlanta.
Here's hoping your jaunt into town provides some fun surprises! I hope the games leaves us with some nice changes
I LOVE churches. I am expat living here, and I can't resist checking to see if a door is open when I pass by a church. And I will go inside the ones I have seen, each time I pass them. I will have to check out EGLISE DE LA SAINTE TRINITÉ. I didn't want to be here for the Olympics, but my hubby wanted to experience it and go to some events.
Love this collaboration with Les Frenchies! We’re coming for the Olympics with a group of 7 of us, not corporate at all, just friends from all over the states. We’re excited to see Paris show off during this amazing event. Jay you can join our group!
I hold out hope that it will be a fun time!
Me too! Have a great time.
Awwww 2 of my favorite French guys!
You are going to have a BLAST! Do not miss this - you will have so many unexpected moments that you will remember forever. There will be a ton of public events that will be so much fun and I bet you'll end up with a ticket or two from someone who you just met - it always seems to go that way.
I just discovered their channel! Cool!
My favorite Parisians together. Hope I run into one of you to say hello in person while I’m in Paris - arriving early Good Friday morning 03/29 and departing April 3rd.
Oh my two of my favorite experts together, what a treat. Besides the outrageous expense of everything during the Olympics, the amount of people in the city, will be unbelievable, no thanks!
It'll be wild to see
Fantastico vlog Jay! We follow both you & les frenchies and boy did our worlds collide seeing you together today! You 2 should do more vlogs together!!
Yeah was had a blast!
I just saw the thumbnail for this and I LOVE this collab already!!! I've been watching their vids a lot lately.
My two favourite Parisian guides!…👏
I’ll be in Paris in May. Didn’t even think about the Olympics. I hope May will still be manageable
I'm so glad I went to Paris last year. There is NO way I would go this year!!
You could not pay me enough to be in Paris for the Olympics. But great to see you and Antoines take on the issue. Best 2 channels for all things Paris. Cheers!
Just flew out from Paris on Friday with 3 extra security checks, now I’m more looking forward to your videos of Paris during the Olympics than visiting Paris around the Olympics 😅
😆
Omg!!!! My two fav Paris RUclipsrs!!!!!
🙏🥂
Great collab with 2 of my favorite channels.
🥂🥂
Order two shirts this morning. Thanks for putting in the work to make it happen!
Thank you! I'm really excited to see them in the wild
Thanks for the update on Notre Dame . My wife and I are planning our next trip after it is opened . We were there last summer ( lot of construction for the Olympics ) can’t wait to come go back and see the few thing we missed .
My 2 favourite Parisian vloggers
So glad you had them on the show.
🌹Jay and Antoine, thank you for this Olympic update. Nice to see two of the very best Paris experts together 🇫🇷
Happy to sit and chat!
I'll be there June 23 for the day and night, then I'm off to elsewhere in Europe. But I hope I'll be early enough, to not be bombarded with Olympic stuff or security checkpoints everywhere in Paris.
Love the crossover. Both of you have great channels. 👍
They're great 🙏🍻
You’re 4.5 weeks before the start!
Yeah! My two favorite French channels as one!
Wow. I love “Les Frenchies” They are one of the sites I keep up with. Glad you met up with each other. I am trying to visit Paris twice a before the Olympics. (If it stops rainy 🥶). 🌴🌴Aloha
Love watching Les Frenches.. between your videos n theirs, I have been doing my planning for when I finally visit Paris. Hopefully in 2025😊
Love both of your channels, so fun seeing you on screen together! I'm taking my first trip to Paris in June 2024 as part of a larger trip to Europe. I was wondering how the Olympics would impact my visit. Sounds like we may get better views of the architecture (with scaffolding removed), but possibly encounter some obstructions as things are set up for the large influx of visitors.
My two favorite ‘Frenchies’ in the same vlog, great video guys! My husband and I have traveled to France at least 2 times a year for the last 8 years. We decided a year ago that we would not travel to France in 2024. I’m very sad and will miss France, but just can’t. Paris is packed in a normal year, I cannot even imagine what it is going to be like this summer 😅 CDG is a Poseidon adventure on any given day, I imagine it will be a s#*tshow with millions more tourists that don’t understand the intricacies of French inefficientcy 😂 no thank you. I am, however, looking forward to what your thoughts are on it.
London was fun during the Olympics! The vibe was so good and it was very well organised BUT London is a lot bigger and most of the action took place outside of the centre so it had less impact on day to day. There was a lot of negativity in the lead up from Londoners saying they'd leave etc but when it came to it, it was brilliant - so I feel it's the same kind of attitude / pessimism Parisians are probably going through rn.
Les Frenchies are fanTAStic!!! I lucked out and tripped on their first video. Been watching since. Always good! I love their sense of humor, their eye.
I am DEEPLY offended that the Olympic have also become a corporate event. It has ALWAYS been for the people of the world!!! I am going to make some wild accusations they may result in you deleting my comment. I am okay with that, I understand. Have the various Olympic Committees members seen so many monetary gifts that they have become jaded to the costs of a seat? It is my personal belief that no more than 1/3 of the seats should be corporate. One of my boys worked the event in SLC, US. He sent my husband a hat Pin and a great print of the Luge. He met some very interesting people. Some very very self entitled people. That may be the last time my family gets a peek until my great grandson is old enough. No, I DON’t know who is mother will be. How rude of me. I KNOW
I love Les Frenchies! I never wanted to visit Paris before I started watching their channel.
Awesome!
YAY! My two favorite Paris RUclipsrs together in one video!!
Two of my favorite RUclipsrs. So great!
Thanks!
Jay et Cooper, Antoine et Colleen : super vidéo ! pour ma part je pense qu'il y aura la fête un peu partout dans la ville et qu'il faudra en profiter. Jay, vous êtes parisien alors surtout ne ratez rien et amusez vous pendant les JO !
Two of my favorite RUclipsrs!!!
