I love how you just use items that you bought 5 yrs or so ago, and don't feel the need to buy new "minimalist" things. I like how transparent you are. So inspiring!
I’m really intentional with what I buy, I try to buy / consume only what I need. We need to slow down and realise that very often we don’t need to buy new things, we just have to use what we already have 😌 And a positive bonus is that we are able to save more money overtime 😄
Looks perfect for a beach holiday to me! Of course, your clothing takes up very little space - I know my mom complains that her very slim friend travels with a backpack while our bras and swimsuits take up much more space than yours lol and just my husband's shoes would fill my backpack!! But I frequently travel with a 16 l Kanken backpack even though my clothing isn't tiny and it's fine, I have plenty of room for the few items I need for a week and if I'm away longer, I wash stuff. It's a relief to see a woman who doesn't need so much for hair and beauty, straighteners etc. as I also get by just fine with a small pouch for my essentials ;) Also, are any of us traveling to places where we couldn't buy whatever we might need and didn't happen to have taken?!
Thank you for sharing your minimalist journey & adventures with us Louise! As a half French aspiring minimalist, I love hearing you use French words when you don't know the English equivalent. What would you say is the most challenging aspect of minimalism for you? Keep inspiring 🤗
I would say the most challenging part of minimalism is to not go crazy when I go to city centers and see so many non necessary shops, and the clutter and consumption in my families houses 🥲
Your "merino shirt" is sort of a camisole! In America your little bag is a "fanny pack," or a "waist pack," and you're right ... in the UK it's a "bum bag."
We would also call it a tank top. Also the chemise for us is just a shirt. You could maybe say blouse also. Maybe that’s the word she was trying to think of!
Love your new sneakers! I keep seeing a backpack like that at Ikea in the US for $2.99 but I kept putting it back. But seeing how long and how well it works out well for you, I am going to give it a try the next time I go to Ikea.
I bought a cheap little backpack from IKEA that lasted me like 7 years! I even used it as a diaper bag for all my kids lol. I was sad when it finally died.
Amazing! I didn't know you can use the Dr Bronner's soap in your hair, I will definitely try this! Last time I travelled, I used a tote bag a little big bigger than this, kind of like a fake longchamp bag. It was a little more than I wanted to do but I was travelling in autumn! For my next summer trip I think I will be more like you with my kånken backpack!
Yes you can use it on hair it’s written on the bar soap 😊 I thought about taking a tote bag too for this trip ahah, convenient but I prefer to have a bag whom (not sure about this word, first time using it 🤣) I can ziplock, more secure 😌 Yeah definitely travelling in autumn / winter you need more things 🍂 Thank you for your comment ❤️
Thank you for your lovely video's Maybe you want to share which airbnb/appartement/hotel you stayed in Albanië? And what are your recommandations to see/do? Albanië is on my travel-wishlist :) Looking forward to see your next video Wishing you all the best from Holland, Lycke ♡
Hey Lana! 😊 Honestly they are both great. So I would say, for environmental reasons, if you are in France, buy a local 72% green Marseille soap, or if are elsewhere, buy the Dr Bronners (my point is to avoid long shipping, it’s not eco friendly to order a Marseille soap and send it to the other side of the globe if that makes sense, so if you can buy a Dr Bronners directly at your local store, definitely go for it! 😄)
Yes it live them greesy but it’s normal it’s because our hair is too used to regular shampoo and the chemicals that goes with it. 😊 After a few weeks of use the hair is amazing !
You should definitely take with you a first aid kit with medications for all occasions. Or in France you can’t just buy medicine without a prescription? We take a painkiller, an adhesive plaster, for blood pressure, a bandage, hydrogen peroxide, for nausea, an electronic thermometer, TheraFlu, paracetamol and more. Maybe you are still too young and therefore think that you will not get sick on the trip. But if this happens, then running around in a foreign country in search of a pharmacy or waiting for a doctor will take a long time and will be more expensive than taking the necessary medications with you from home.
In France there is lots of pharmacies, you can go there and ask for médecine is necessary. They can check and help you quickly if you need something basic (sprain, medicine, spray for bites..) if doctor is needed they'll tell you 😉 or we have insurance to get to an hospital near the vacation location in case of emergency ☺️ Where she is its still Europe so she has an European Card for social security ☺️ have a good day ❤
I can confirm (also French here), I think I even heard that there are more pharmacies than bakeries in France. And there are what we call "on call pharmacies" so that there's always one open near you. ;)
@@Petitefrenchie Thank you! 😊 I did not know about it. We travel to different countries and on the road in a foreign country anything can happen and you need to be prepared if you suddenly get sick, we always take different medicines with us. Have a nice day too! 💕
@@extrememinimalism It's very hot there, as I understand it. But wearing leggings during the day and then sleeping in dirty leggings in a clean bed is not very good. Therefore, I want to find out the answer from the author of the channel. 😊
Je suis très reconnaissant pour vos vidéos ❤ Louise Dr. Bronner's should sponsor you. 😄 Since you mentioned reading is important for you, I have a book recommendation, it's called "Skin Sobering: 99% of Products Age and Harm Your Skin." by Erin Yuet Tjam and Ryuichi Utsugi. I think you already seem to be practicing skin sobering. I want you to read & talk about it in your videos ^_^
Don't you take scissors with you? Disposable tableware, salt, sugar? Don't you use deodorant? What kind of washcloth do you use? Don't you take a beach towel to lie on and sunbathe on?
Where are you traveling that you need to bring your own tableware and spices? 😂 The whole point of minimalist travel is to take just the essentials; if you need something else you can get it at your destination.
@@andreslucero81 Often there is nothing at the destination. It happens that there is not even a kettle. We book accommodation in advance and see if there is a kitchen there. We save money, so we don’t go to cafes, buy food and cook it ourselves. To do this, we carry travel travel utensils with us. 😀
We where staying at a Airbnb, we had everything we needed. No as shown in the video I didn’t took a deodorant. I use my soap to clean my clothes and I use my paréo to sunbathe on 😊

Welcome to the fam and I’m so glad you find inspiration here ☀️🩵

Love this! You're so funny pointing at that man in the airport. Lol. Also, do you not pack deodorant? Love how minimal your toiletries are!
Glad you liked it! 😁 No I don’t pack deodorant 😊

Thank you 👟😃 Yes you should! And of course I took good care of it so it can last 😌
As a fellow minimalist girlie, i really love your video ❤❤❤
Thank you my friend 🌺🩷

Thanks Phillip 😄
Super vidéo comme d'habitude ! ✨ est ce que ce livre est bien ? J'ai abandonné Blackwater 🫣 tu as déjà pensé à prendre une liseuse ? 📙☺️
Hi Louise! I hope you’re enjoying your trip :) do you not use anything to lotion your body? I’d love to get my toiletries as minimal as you!
Hi! Not when I’m travelling 😌 I hope you find inspiration here 🩵
Hello Louise! 😊 which soap for the whole body do you like better Marseilles or dr.Bronners? Need your expert opinion))
Hey Lana! 😊 Honestly they are both great. So I would say, for environmental reasons, if you are in France, buy a local 72% green Marseille soap, or if are elsewhere, buy the Dr Bronners (my point is to avoid long shipping, it’s not eco friendly to order a Marseille soap and send it to the other side of the globe if that makes sense, so if you can buy a Dr Bronners directly at your local store, definitely go for it! 😄)
Louise, what is your experience with using Dr Bronner's soap on you hair? It doesn't dry them out or live them greesy?
Not Louise. But in my experience I have really sensitive skin/hair. Dr Bronners was too much for my hair. But it’s fine for my face and body.
Yes it live them greesy but it’s normal it’s because our hair is too used to regular shampoo and the chemicals that goes with it. 😊 After a few weeks of use the hair is amazing !
I found liquid dr bronners too drying. Not sure about the bar form.
Would love to see you and „Lucile“ (RUclips Channel) together in a video. She also lives in Paris. Your videos are beautiful, Louise.
I love your videos ❤me encantan tus videos! J'adore tes vidéos.
Thank you Andrea for your comment 🩷
Love your content.
Et votre accent est trop adorable. Je pourrais vous écouter toute la journée. 😊
Oh merci beaucoup ! ☺️
What’s the brand of the hat? I’m having a hard time figuring out how to spell it :) it’s so cute
The brand is Solbari ! It’s cute and really protective ☀️
@@louisefroideval Thank you! :)
Are you excited for your world tour?
I can’t wait 🤩
You should definitely take with you a first aid kit with medications for all occasions. Or in France you can’t just buy medicine without a prescription?

@@arianedurand3141 plus de pharmacies que de boulangeries 😂😂🙌🏻 j'adore ! 😆😆♥️

@@Claireluciole 🥰🥰♥️
@4:44 fanny pack ☺️
Whats the brand of soap that you use? 😊
Dr Bronners
It’s Dr Bronners : All One soap 🧼
so you have one outfit for the whole week?
No, two : I have my pink pants and black top, and a dress 😉
That is a very small bag 🤯
And yet everything I need 😉
Encore une video interessante, merci Louise🙂
Merci à toi Diane ☺️
What do you sleep in at night? Where are your nightgown or pajamas?
a t-shirt and leggings she could wear during the day is fine
@@extrememinimalism It's very hot there, as I understand it. But wearing leggings during the day and then sleeping in dirty leggings in a clean bed is not very good. Therefore, I want to find out the answer from the author of the channel. 😊
Naked, it was extremely hot and otherwise I could have use a clean tank top and legging ☺️
Je suis très reconnaissant pour vos vidéos ❤

Thank you 💙 I will check this book 🙌
@@louisefroideval you can search if libraries near you carry this book 📖
How do you spell the brand of the hat? It’s cute!
I found it online. It's solbari.
The brand is Solbari ! 😊☀️
anyone know the brand of the ultra compact backpack?
She said it's a Nike
I think Ikea
i think it's Quechua
@00:55 Ikea
Her main backpack is IKEA and the ultra-compact packable backpack is Quechua (Decathlon’s private label brand).
Don't you take scissors with you? Disposable tableware, salt, sugar? Don't you use deodorant? What kind of washcloth do you use? Don't you take a beach towel to lie on and sunbathe on?
Where are you traveling that you need to bring your own tableware and spices? 😂 The whole point of minimalist travel is to take just the essentials; if you need something else you can get it at your destination.
She had a towel, and I’m guessing she’s staying at a place that provides linens and meals
@@andreslucero81 Often there is nothing at the destination. It happens that there is not even a kettle. We book accommodation in advance and see if there is a kitchen there. We save money, so we don’t go to cafes, buy food and cook it ourselves. To do this, we carry travel travel utensils with us. 😀
@@abikleinsmith That's probably true. You're right! Otherwise, savings would turn into big expenses on food in restaurants. 😀
