    Paris 20th arrondissement is a fantastic place with lots of really nice neighborhoods to see and tons of street art, space invaders, and obviously Pere Lachaise.
    My name is Jay Swanson - I'm an American writer living in Paris on an artist visa and hoping to make the city of light my home base - at least for the foreseeable future. I write science-fiction and fantasy, vlog daily, and love pizza a little too much.

    FAQ:
    How long have you lived in France? On and off for over two years.
    What do you miss most about ho- NACHOS
    You're always talking about living on some ship. WHAT SHIP? - I made a "Draw My Life" video that explains a lot here: • Draw My Life
    Where are you from originally? - Pullman, Washington - a small university/agricultural town near Idaho (and yes, the potatoes are amazing).
    What do you film with? - I've made a lot of changes recently, but I try to keep my gear list up to date if you want to see what I use and buy some for yourself: bit.ly/JaysGear...
    What do you edit with? - Adobe Premiere - it's pretty much all I've ever used since high school.
    Aren't you ever freaked out by leaving your camera behind to film yourself? - Yep. But not too badly - I tend to be careful when I do.
    Why are you living in #Paris? - Because I've always wanted to; I feel at home here: • Why I Want to Live in ...
    Do you speak French? Oui. • Un Jour en Francais (E...
    You talk a lot about the books you're working on, what are they about? - They're sci-fi (and fantasy) and I've got a decent pitch for you here: • The Pitch (Sorta) - Ag...
    Do you make money off RUclips? - Ha, no. I wish. It took me over 500 videos to make my first total $100 off adsense. I think it will slowly change, but VERY slowly.
    I really enjoy your videos, how can I support you? - The easiest and best way to support me is through Patreon, where you can pitch in as little as $1/mo to help me make better videos: / jayswanson
    I don't trust this Patreon thing - can I just paypal you? - Here's my ko-fi if that's your thing (and coffee is your game): ko-fi.com/jays...
    But I want to send you something tangible! - I do have a wishlist on Amazon, though it's a bit complicated with the international shipping situation. This is the US one: amzn.to/2ykS9Ux
    And here's the French wishlist: bit.ly/JaysFren...
    Thanks for watching!

    I stayed in an Airbnb directly across the street from that Belleville Park perch with the great view. Upon my arrival in Paris it felt great to dump my bags in the Airbnb, walk out the front door of the building and soak in the golden evening view from that spot. Fortunately it was a perfectly clear day, so all could be seen. It’s really an amazing view!!

    9:00 at rue Villiers de L’Isle-Adam are the stairs I would take to go to rue de la Chine, where the boy I babysat lived. I spent a LOT of time in Ménilmontant! There used to be a bar/resto there called Aux Ours. I ate there several times. (I just checked Google Maps- it’s still there. It’s a nice spot.) It’s been an interesting experience to see places I’m really intimate with on a video- something about recent video footage makes it feel really close. I spent a ton of time in the 20th, too, and grew to love it as much (almost) as the 19th. Congratulations on a great series, Jay! 🎉🎉🎉 Hope you can get some good rest after a three-week marathon to knock these out! 👍🏼✌🏼

    I've watched all 20 of your vlogs on the arrondisements and really enjoyed them . I've probably seen more of Paris than my friend who lived there in the 1970s. It's was great to see the major sites but also those special places that a native would know and tourists miss. Also what life is like there. I've followed where you went on my Michelin Map Allas.so it was helpful on the older places but missed the more recent ones. but places change over the years. It seems like a place where you take things leisurely and not rush through them. I'll definitely check out your more recent vlogs You're like a friend I'd like to have.to hang around with and have good times. You're great in not getting into politics or current events. You make too many enemies unless you agree with them. At least you're away from the mess we have here. TMG !(Trump Must Go !) Take care and make more of them. You made me a true fan.

    I had a great stay in the 20eme in 2017! It was the last week of a 3-week vacation (London, Dublin, Paris) and I had the best seat in the house to watch the Bastille Day flyovers (directly above the apartment) and an unobstructed view of the Eiffel Tower fireworks (plus a few others in other parts of Paris). I also had an obstructed panoramic view of Montparnasse Tower all the way over to Sacre Coeur! I stayed in Place de Nation!
