  2. 0:06Ever since my family left about a month
  3. 0:08ago, I've been kind of in this funk.
  4. 0:10I've been pretty down and really just
  5. 0:11like not myself. And something I've
  6. 0:13always wanted to do was take a solo trip
  7. 0:16to Paris. Being in all of my thoughts
  8. 0:18the past couple weeks got me really
  9. 0:19thinking, why not just finally do it?
  10. 0:21And what better time than right now?
  11. 0:24Okay, we're here. It's 9:30 p.m. on
  12. 0:26Sunday. My flight leaves in 1 hour. I
  13. 0:28haven't done a solo trip in a little
  14. 0:30while, so I'm excited, but I'm kind of
  15. 0:32nervous. And I have pretty much nothing
  16. 0:35planned, which is so unlike me. So, I
  17. 0:37guess we'll see if this is a good idea.
  18. 0:41[music]
  19. 0:48[snorts]
  20. 0:49[music]
  21. 0:54[music]
  22. 0:55Good morning, guys. I can't believe I'm
  23. 0:57in Paris. I think until I step outside,
  24. 0:59it's not going to actually feel like I'm
  25. 1:01here. I'm starting the morning making an
  26. 1:03espresso coffee. Here's the thing. The
  27. 1:06last time I made one of these, I think
  28. 1:08was a year or two ago, and I forget how
  29. 1:10to use the machine. So, [singing]
  30. 1:13[music]
  31. 1:17[music]
  32. 1:25>> [music]
  33. 1:26>> I will still be getting coffee today.
  34. 1:27Don't worry. This is just the first of
  35. 1:30hopefully multiple. This is not a video
  36. 1:32of me saying you need to go and fly to
  37. 1:35Paris in order to like get out of a rut.
  38. 1:37[laughter] That is like not the case
  39. 1:39because I'm so lucky that I can actually
  40. 1:41just fly here at [music] any time
  41. 1:42because of my job. But I did think it'd
  42. 1:44be a really nice change of pace for me
  43. 1:46and I was really looking forward to it
  44. 1:48the past couple weeks when I was a
  45. 1:50little down. So the first thing on my
  46. 1:52mind is getting food. I'm so hungry. But
  47. 1:54actually the thing that's before the
  48. 1:55first thing on my mind is sitting on
  49. 1:58that balcony with my coffee. If you know
  50. 2:00me, you know I love people watching. So
  51. 2:02it's just it's like my favorite hobby.
  52. 2:06[music]
  53. 2:23>> [music]
  54. 2:23>> Fear of filming in public Paris edition.
  55. 2:26I saw this brunch spot when I drove in
  56. 2:28last night called Cozy. It is so busy
  57. 2:31and it's also really hot. I think it's
  58. 2:34like 95° right now. I got some avocado
  59. 2:37toast, which is so boring of me, and I
  60. 2:39hate that I did that, but it just looked
  61. 2:41so good. Does that not look like 10 out
  62. 2:43of 10? I also got an iced latte, which
  63. 2:46is concerning that this is my second of
  64. 2:47the day. I'm like a little scared about
  65. 2:49how I'm going to feel. I also asked for
  66. 2:50ice water, and I forgot that they don't
  67. 2:53really do ice here. I don't know why
  68. 2:55that is. I actually Can someone who is
  69. 2:57from here or who knows the answer tell
  70. 2:59me why? I'm just curious like the
  71. 3:02reasoning. Oh, but the water's cold
  72. 3:03though. The water is chilled.
  73. 3:12[music]
  74. 3:17So, naturally, cuz I don't have anything
  75. 3:19in mind when I'm here, I went on my
  76. 3:21Instagram story and asked you guys to
  77. 3:23help me. [music]
  78. 3:24And a lot of you guys were recommending
  79. 3:26this bakery called Mamese. And I did
  80. 3:28just walk by it. So, even though I just
  81. 3:30ate, I think it would be an injustice
  82. 3:32for me to not go try a croissant.
  83. 3:40[music]
  84. 3:48>> Okay, taste test. Because I found a
  85. 3:50little quiet alleyway where there's less
  86. 3:52people, I got two things. I kind of was
  87. 3:54stressed out in there because I felt
  88. 3:56like there was a line forming and I just
  89. 3:58like needed to order something
  90. 3:59immediately.
  91. 4:01First thing I got a plain croissant.
  92. 4:02Obviously have to just start with the
  93. 4:04basics.
  94. 4:09Wow.
  95. 4:12It's so doughy on the inside. I'm
  96. 4:14bringing out my inner food critic. Okay,
  97. 4:16this place is also super popular on
  98. 4:18TikTok, so I kind of wanted to not like
  99. 4:19it in spite of that, but I do. It's
  100. 4:21really good. Now that I've eaten half of
  101. 4:23it, I'm going to give it a nine. And now
  102. 4:25for the pond of chocolate.
  103. 4:29Look at that. Can you guys see in that?
  104. 4:31This is really good. But I might like
  105. 4:32the plain croissant even better, which
  106. 4:34is shocking cuz I love chocolate. See, I
  107. 4:37just messed it up. Now I can never have
  108. 4:38a croissant in America again. It's never
  109. 4:41going to be as good as that. And I'm
  110. 4:42always just going to be thinking in my
  111. 4:43head, I wish I was eating that one
  112. 4:44croissant in Paris.
  113. 4:47[music]
  114. 4:52>> [music]
  115. 4:59[music]
  116. 5:04[music]
  117. 5:05>> I think this is it for me. I think I
  118. 5:07already found my favorite part of Paris.
  119. 5:09I'm at Park Monsu. I had a couple of my
  120. 5:12friends recommend this place to me
  121. 5:13before I went. I texted a couple of
  122. 5:15them. I was like, "What should I do when
  123. 5:16I'm there?" And they both said this
  124. 5:18park. Oh, okay. Some guy is giving me a
  125. 5:22heart sign. I didn't know how to react
  126. 5:23to that. The moment I stepped in here, I
  127. 5:25had Olivia Rodrigo's new album playing,
  128. 5:27obviously, and it felt like I was in a
  129. 5:29music video. Is that so cringe? It did.
  130. 5:31It did. It feels like I'm in like some
  131. 5:33romantic movie. It's so magical. I also
  132. 5:36think part of my intrigue here is
  133. 5:38[music] that everyone truthfully seems
  134. 5:40so genuinely happy. People are like on
  135. 5:42their phones [music] a lot less. I don't
  136. 5:44know if this is just like a random
  137. 5:45observation I'm making. Everyone just
  138. 5:47seems so peaceful and content. What
  139. 5:50really intrigued me about this place is
  140. 5:51apparently Monae painted five of his
  141. 5:53famous paintings here. And ironically,
  142. 5:55okay, this is going to make it look like
  143. 5:57I'm trying to be an artist. I'm not.
  144. 5:58This is just coincidence. My friend for
  145. 6:01my birthday got me a little paint set.
  146. 6:03And the second I opened it, I told her,
  147. 6:05I'm bringing that to Paris with me. It's
  148. 6:07perfect. It's a little watercolor book.
  149. 6:09And I grabbed some water from the water
  150. 6:10fountain. And mine will look nothing
  151. 6:11like Monet's. Actually, mine's fill in
  152. 6:14the lines. There's really no talent
  153. 6:16required here.
  154. 6:19[music]
  155. 6:25[music]
  156. 6:33[music]
  157. 6:34As I was walking home, I noticed the
  158. 6:35bars were completely packed to the brim
  159. 6:37with people. And I remember tonight is
  160. 6:39the France versus Spain game for the
  161. 6:42World Cup. This is so fun to like be a
  162. 6:44part of even though I'm I can't claim to
  163. 6:47be a fan, but I am tonight. So,
  164. 6:55[music]
  165. 6:58>> hey guys.
  166. 7:00>> I'm with Rosie and Annias. I was sitting
  167. 7:03here watching the game like on the stoop
  168. 7:06and they came up to me and said they
  169. 7:07watched my videos. Yes. You guys are
  170. 7:10visiting from Canada.
  171. 7:11>> Canada. Yes.
  172. 7:11>> Okay. What's been your favorite thing so
  173. 7:13far?
  174. 7:14>> I would say team tower. And then also
  175. 7:17like all the like community here
  176. 7:18watching the game, too.
  177. 7:19>> Yes. It's so patriotic.
  178. 7:21>> Yes.
  179. 7:23[music]
  180. 7:26>> So, it's now 1:00 a.m. And what did I
  181. 7:28decide to order for dinner?
  182. 7:33McDonald's. I would say I would do a
  183. 7:35taste test, but I did just do a taste
  184. 7:37test on my Tik Tok. So, I guess a little
  185. 7:39promo if you want to see me try all of
  186. 7:41these French McDonald's menu items.
  187. 7:44McDonald's has a donut.
  188. 7:47I'm going to sit and eat the rest of
  189. 7:48this though cuz I'm so hungry. And then
  190. 7:51I'm going to go to bed. Day one in Paris
  191. 7:52was 10 out of 10. Night.
  192. 8:09>> [music]
  193. 8:16[music]
  194. 8:21>> Good morning, guys. It is the second day
  195. 8:23in Paris. I woke up. The way I'm holding
  196. 8:27this right now is crazy. I got coffee. I
  197. 8:29thought I'd walk in there and it' just
  198. 8:30be like a really cute Tik Tok place cuz
  199. 8:33this place also like blew up on Tik Tok.
  200. 8:35But it was so cute. There's actually no
  201. 8:37one in there when I went. And the coffee
  202. 8:39is so good. Like I was honestly really
  203. 8:42surprised. And the little heart on the
  204. 8:44cup is makes me happy. My only complaint
  205. 8:46is that the coffee is micro and I drank
  206. 8:49[music] it in like about 30 seconds. The
  207. 8:51one thing today that I really want to do
  208. 8:53is walk by [music] the Sen River. But
  209. 8:55something stopped me and it is the
  210. 8:58Saison store. Oh, and there's a siren
  211. 9:02going off. Never mind. It is not open.
  212. 9:04It is under construction.
  213. 9:07[music]
  214. 9:13[music]
  215. 9:18So, I'm here by the Sun River. It really
  216. 9:20is so peaceful and beautiful. I totally
  217. 9:23wanted to come to Paris on my own by
  218. 9:25myself. It was completely my idea. I
  219. 9:27thought it would be a really good
  220. 9:28experience for me. I don't know. It's
  221. 9:29moments like these where I see something
  222. 9:31so beautiful. And it's almost like the
  223. 9:33more beautiful something is, the more I
  224. 9:35wish that the people I love were here to
  225. 9:38experience it with me. Like the river
  226. 9:40and the architecture. I know my mom
  227. 9:42would think this is so magnificent. And
  228. 9:44it just I guess it made me realize you
  229. 9:47can be independent and also wish that
  230. 9:49the people you love were with you to
  231. 9:51share certain experiences. I'm going to
  232. 9:52sit and enjoy. I am having a great time.
  233. 9:55I also love like eavesdropping even
  234. 9:57though I don't understand the language.
  235. 10:00It's just like a beautiful language to
  236. 10:01me. If I could speak one language, I
  237. 10:03always thought French was like the most
  238. 10:05beautiful language since I was young and
  239. 10:07I was so fascinated by it. So I like
  240. 10:09just listening even though I'm not
  241. 10:10gaining any information. It's probably I
  242. 10:12probably shouldn't. That's weird and
  243. 10:15like invasive. I just met two of like
  244. 10:17the sweetest girls ever. Do you want to
  245. 10:18say your names?
  246. 10:19>> Luna Jill.
  247. 10:21>> And they just came up and started
  248. 10:23chatting and I'm a little lonely cuz I'm
  249. 10:25[laughter] here on my own. They grew up
  250. 10:27in Paris so they're giving me all these
  251. 10:29recommendations. I was like really
  252. 10:30curious what it was like growing up here
  253. 10:33and just like your experience from a
  254. 10:35local. Personally, I would say it's all
  255. 10:37the opportunities especially in culture
  256. 10:40like all the museum and activities for
  257. 10:42children. My parents really went to them
  258. 10:45and forced us a little bit to
  259. 10:47participate in them. But so yeah, that
  260. 10:49was amazing the opportunities that you
  261. 10:50have in Paris.
  262. 10:51>> I think it's actually the same thing
  263. 10:53even like the city is proposing a lot of
  264. 10:55things to do, a lot of activity like
  265. 10:57parl where I'm working and even to to
  266. 11:00bike. I love to bike in Paris.
  267. 11:01>> Bike is amazing. They told me I need to
  268. 11:03bike here and that I need to just
  269. 11:05literally hop on a bike and explore,
  270. 11:07right?
  271. 11:15[music]
  272. 11:17>> I couldn't find any spot to put my
  273. 11:19camera. So, you are one with the cobwebs
  274. 11:22right now. I found this place on Tik Tok
  275. 11:24and I didn't think I'd actually go in to
  276. 11:26be honest, but I was walking after I
  277. 11:28left the sen and I saw the shop. It's a
  278. 11:32little stationary store. I'll put the
  279. 11:33name of it on screen. I felt so
  280. 11:35comforted in that store. I ended up
  281. 11:37getting a journal. They wrapped it all
  282. 11:39nicely. I also got a pencil. I should
  283. 11:41have gotten a pen now that I'm thinking
  284. 11:42about it. I thought a journal would be
  285. 11:46I think I'm having a lot more thoughts
  286. 11:48come to me because I've been alone for
  287. 11:50like 3 days in a row and I think um a
  288. 11:52journal would probably be good for me.
  289. 11:54And then there's a store up here called
  290. 11:55Officine Debulli. You can get the cutest
  291. 11:58gifts in here. I went here last time I
  292. 12:00went to Paris and it was I think my
  293. 12:02favorite shop. You can get things
  294. 12:04engraved like lip balms or grooming kits
  295. 12:06for men. So, I want to see if I can just
  296. 12:08grab a couple little gifts for people.
  297. 12:10Guys, this hotel looks perfect. I just
  298. 12:13walked by it and I want to stay here. Is
  299. 12:16it a bad idea if I get a second coffee?
  300. 12:21[music]
  301. 12:30>> [music]
  302. 12:41>> shopping was a success. I got three
  303. 12:44gifts and I think I just gave it away on
  304. 12:47video who they're for. I think only they
  305. 12:49would know if they're watching. I got
  306. 12:51the chapsticks because I have gotten the
  307. 12:53chapstick from there and I love it. I
  308. 12:55love customizable things. I think it
  309. 12:57just makes a gift 10 times more special
  310. 12:59to personalize them. And if you're ever
  311. 13:01in Paris, you really need to go to that
  312. 13:03store. Even like the gift wrap they do
  313. 13:05is excellent. Anyways, I'm getting a
  314. 13:07little hungry. I sat [music] down at is
  315. 13:09this called Le Philosophy. When I looked
  316. 13:12up, I think it said it was like a
  317. 13:13historic French restaurant. I got French
  318. 13:16onion soup because I have been wanting
  319. 13:18French onion soup in France. It is one
  320. 13:20of the most nostalgic food items for me,
  321. 13:23mostly because my mom and I would always
  322. 13:25have it, specifically at Applebee's. So,
  323. 13:27the bar is pretty low. Okay, I do love
  324. 13:30Applebee's. Solo travel, I think it
  325. 13:32makes me appreciate trips more with
  326. 13:34someone because sharing an experience
  327. 13:37with someone like traveling for me has
  328. 13:39always made my bond with that person so
  329. 13:41much closer and made our relationship so
  330. 13:43much deeper. I feel like you get to know
  331. 13:44someone really well while traveling. So,
  332. 13:46I love that I have you guys to share my
  333. 13:48experiences with. [music]
  334. 13:58[music]
  335. 14:02[music]
  336. 14:19>> [music]
  337. 14:19>> I fell victim to another Tik Tok trend.
  338. 14:23I think Tik Tok knows that I'm here
  339. 14:25somehow. Why Why does it always know
  340. 14:27where I am? Because it's showing me all
  341. 14:29of like the hot trendy spots to go. And
  342. 14:32there's a cookie croissant at this place
  343. 14:33called Mason Louard. I'm really scared
  344. 14:36to pronounce anything in this video. So,
  345. 14:38just I'm sorry in advance, but it looks
  346. 14:40so good. Like, I'm that easily
  347. 14:42convinced. So, I just walked 20 minutes
  348. 14:44to try it.
  349. 14:53So, this is the elevator in my hotel.
  350. 14:55I'm staying in Hotel Beige. I really
  351. 14:58have had a great experience so far. My
  352. 15:00favorite thing is how tiny this elevator
  353. 15:02is. Can you tell how small? Like I don't
  354. 15:04even think two people could fit. Barely.
  355. 15:07I adore this miniature elevator. And the
  356. 15:09doors open like this.
  357. 15:14The anticipation I have for this
  358. 15:16crookie.
  359. 15:19Did I make that up or is that what this
  360. 15:20is actually called? This is my dream. A
  361. 15:23croissant with a chocolate chip cookie.
  362. 15:30Oh my god, [music]
  363. 15:33[laughter] it's so good. This is hard
  364. 15:35for my brain to comprehend right now.
  365. 15:36Like, I'm processing the fact that this
  366. 15:38is a croissant [music] and also a
  367. 15:40cookie. This is like the best thing I've
  368. 15:41ever had in my life, to be honest.
  369. 15:45[music]
  370. 15:48Good morning, guys. It is my third day
  371. 15:52here. I'm running extremely late. I'm
  372. 15:54going to meet my friend No way. [music]
  373. 15:5610 years ago, my family and I hosted an
  374. 15:58exchange student from France. His name
  375. 16:00was Noe. He was actually my little
  376. 16:01brother's exchange student. So, since
  377. 16:03then, we've just stayed great [music]
  378. 16:04family friends with him. And whenever
  379. 16:06he's in like the States or one of us are
  380. 16:09here, he's the person we need to see. He
  381. 16:11picked out a specific spot [music]
  382. 16:12because obviously he's going to know the
  383. 16:15places that are the best. And this
  384. 16:17place, [music] I think, has really
  385. 16:18classic French food. I just realized I
  386. 16:20didn't say no way is from France. The
  387. 16:22restaurant he picked out called Braser
  388. 16:24de Prey was so good. I really wanted to
  389. 16:26try a traditional French dish. So I got
  390. 16:29the croquet monsour which is pretty
  391. 16:31[music] much bread with ham and French
  392. 16:33cheese and it was so good. Okay guys,
  393. 16:36I'm with no way.
  394. 16:38>> Nice to meet you guys. [screaming]
  395. 16:40>> We saw this bakery. We were walking and
  396. 16:42apparently they have the best croissant
  397. 16:44in Paris.
  398. 16:45>> Supposedly the their name is the best
  399. 16:48first in Paris. I've had one croissant
  400. 16:51here.
  401. 16:52>> Okay.
  402. 16:54>> Yeah. [laughter] The the accent is good.
  403. 16:55>> I think I rated it a nine. [music]
  404. 16:56>> A nine out of 10.
  405. 16:57>> Yes.
  406. 16:58>> Okay. I mean, for French people, like
  407. 16:59the quason is the average most like
  408. 17:02normal pastry you can get. So, our
  409. 17:05standards are really high.
  410. 17:06>> This looks like fake. It looks like AI.
  411. 17:09[laughter]
  412. 17:09>> It's AI generated.
  413. 17:10>> Hey, cheers.
  414. 17:11>> Cheers.
  415. 17:14>> I'm computing.
  416. 17:16>> I don't want to give my nose.
  417. 17:17>> It's not bad. [music]
  418. 17:19>> No. But the one that I had two days ago
  419. 17:21was like much better.
  420. 17:23>> Oh yeah.
  421. 17:24>> Like a seven.
  422. 17:25>> A seven out of 10. I'd say that's
  423. 17:26accurate.
  424. 17:27>> No, I'd say that's accurate.
  425. 17:28>> Really?
  426. 17:29>> I would give it like a six or a seven
  427. 17:30cuz it's not [music] like the morning.
  428. 17:32They do it like the best are in the
  429. 17:34morning.
  430. 17:34>> Oh,
  431. 17:35>> it's definitely not the best I've
  432. 17:36tasted. No,
  433. 17:37>> which is
  434. 17:37>> I mean like I had high expectations. If
  435. 17:39you're claiming you're like the number
  436. 17:40one in Paris,
  437. 17:41>> of course,
  438. 17:41>> my expectations are going to be pretty
  439. 17:43high.
  440. 17:43>> I'll still eat I'll still eat it.
  441. 17:45>> He's leaving the whole thing. No way. Is
  442. 17:47showing me how to use the metro. I
  443. 17:48haven't taken yet cuz I'm too nervous.
  444. 17:50But I'm really excited to take Metro.
  445. 17:52I've heard it's like very clean.
  446. 17:54>> Right. It's clean, right?
  447. 17:56>> Depends on depends on which one you
  448. 17:58take.
  449. 17:59>> I knew it would be a moral injustice for
  450. 18:01me to go all the way to Paris and not
  451. 18:03see the Eiffel Tower. Even though I've
  452. 18:04seen it once before, I really wanted to
  453. 18:06see it again. I told Noy I hadn't had
  454. 18:07the chance yet. So, him being the best
  455. 18:09French tour guide, he showed me a cool
  456. 18:11lookout spot. Wow. When I was young, I
  457. 18:14was so obsessed with Paris. So, I had
  458. 18:16photos in my room of the Eiffel Tower. I
  459. 18:19feel like I'm kind of in a penalty.
  460. 18:21Like, I don't feel like it's real. No
  461. 18:23way. What do you think?
  462. 18:24>> It's amazing. Even for even for me, it's
  463. 18:26amazing to see it. You can see the color
  464. 18:28of the the EFL tower. It's usually it's
  465. 18:30copper. Like, with time, the color gets
  466. 18:32a bit degraded. Because of the Olympic
  467. 18:35Games in 2024, so 2 years ago, they kind
  468. 18:38of remade the color, repainted it. So,
  469. 18:40now it's bright new and it's it's
  470. 18:41gorgeous.
  471. 18:42>> Wow. It's so cool, guys. Thank you to my
  472. 18:45tour guide, Noe. No way has a YouTube
  473. 18:48channel. Tell them what your YouTube
  474. 18:50channel is.
  475. 18:51>> My YouTube channel is Noe Zenzen. N O E
  476. 18:54Zenzen. Talking about what where my
  477. 18:57curiosity goes. I got inspired by Sydney
  478. 19:00Serena that has been a star YouTuber for
  479. 19:02a very very long long time.
  480. 19:10>> [music]
  481. 19:14>> After seeing the Eiffel Tower, my day
  482. 19:16was honestly more [music] than made. I
  483. 19:18went back to my hotel, just did the
  484. 19:20usual. People watched. I also saw that I
  485. 19:22have a new neighbor, watched the sunset,
  486. 19:25and went to bed. [music]
  487. 19:31Good morning, guys. It is officially my
  488. 19:35last day here. I actually cannot believe
  489. 19:36it's my last day already. I feel like I
  490. 19:38got here yesterday, but I ended up
  491. 19:40getting ready. I'm wearing like my most
  492. 19:42casual outfit on this last day. I just
  493. 19:44want to be like really comfy. I avoided
  494. 19:47the coffee machine this morning because
  495. 19:49it's my last day here. I have to go to a
  496. 19:52coffee shop. A new one though. I have to
  497. 19:54try a new one in my mind. There's this
  498. 19:56one that people seem to love. Like a lot
  499. 19:58of the locals. At least this girl on
  500. 20:00TikTok I watched last night. She said
  501. 20:01it's where the locals go. It's a
  502. 20:0310-minute walk.
  503. 20:05All
  504. 20:14right, I got my latte. They usually
  505. 20:16don't have like flavor shots at most of
  506. 20:18these places. Like in the US, I you guys
  507. 20:20know my order is always an ice vanel
  508. 20:22latte with skim milk. But here I kind of
  509. 20:25just put in a little bit of their like
  510. 20:26liquid sweetener if they have it on the
  511. 20:28side. So that's what I did. I'm not like
  512. 20:30blown away, but pretty solid.
  513. 20:34>> [music]
  514. 20:42[music]
  515. 20:50[music]
  516. 20:51>> So, I stopped in a couple random vintage
  517. 20:53stores. Didn't see anything that I
  518. 20:54really loved. And I'm trying not to buy
  519. 20:56things anymore that I don't love. Like,
  520. 20:59if I kind of like it, it just doesn't
  521. 21:01cut it. Anyways, I'm out of breath
  522. 21:04because now I'm going to this place. I'm
  523. 21:06not even going to try to say it. I've
  524. 21:08heard amazing things about this because
  525. 21:09you can see the views of Paris
  526. 21:11apparently from up here. Everything's
  527. 21:13been uphill. It'll be cool, I think. If
  528. 21:16I ever make it.
  529. 21:22Made it to the top. This is called the
  530. 21:24Baselik Deser
  531. 21:27Monte Mart. Oh god, please just go easy
  532. 21:32on me, please. It's a Catholic church.
  533. 21:34You can see it in the background. I see
  534. 21:36why so many people come here because not
  535. 21:38only is the structure itself really
  536. 21:40beautiful, but the views of Paris. Let
  537. 21:43me show you. This is the most beautiful
  538. 21:45viewpoint of [music] Paris that I've
  539. 21:48seen.
  540. 21:53>> [music]
  541. 21:58>> I really wanted to go vintage shopping,
  542. 22:00but I had been to a couple stores
  543. 22:01throughout the week that I stopped in
  544. 22:03and I didn't see anything I liked and I
  545. 22:05knew that I didn't want to just buy
  546. 22:06something to [music] buy something
  547. 22:08because I was in Paris. Anyways, the
  548. 22:10store was so cool. They had these really
  549. 22:12cool vintage product kitten heels that I
  550. 22:15wanted to get, [music] but they just
  551. 22:17like were honestly so uncomfortable. I
  552. 22:19couldn't even walk 2 feet in the store.
  553. 22:21So, had some other really cool stuff. I
  554. 22:23ended up trying on this like really
  555. 22:24[music] simple button-down top.
  556. 22:25>> It's a designer from the 80s.
  557. 22:29>> It's really basic, but [music] it fit me
  558. 22:31really well and I liked the quality. So,
  559. 22:33I ended up just picking that up and then
  560. 22:35after I left, I was walking past [music]
  561. 22:37another store and I saw this green
  562. 22:38leather jacket in the window and
  563. 22:40immediately I stopped in my tracks, went
  564. 22:43in to try it on. I couldn't tell how
  565. 22:45much I liked it. Please, even if you
  566. 22:47love it, can you just like reaffirm with
  567. 22:49me that I made the right decision not to
  568. 22:51get it? just pretend because I can't
  569. 22:52[music] go back. I was craving a crepe
  570. 22:55so bad, so I just Googled crepes near
  571. 22:57me, and this was the first one that came
  572. 22:59up. I am actually disappointed and upset
  573. 23:01with myself that I haven't had one yet,
  574. 23:03and it's the [music] last day. I was so
  575. 23:05focused on the croissants and the French
  576. 23:07onion soup. It's like I lost track of
  577. 23:09time. I got the classic sugar and butter
  578. 23:12crepe. This is my favorite type of
  579. 23:14crepe. I've tried like the Nutella. I
  580. 23:16don't really like Nutella. Is that going
  581. 23:17to get me hated on by everybody?
  582. 23:19Probably. I'm sorry. And every time I've
  583. 23:20got a savory crepe, I always regret it.
  584. 23:23So, I've Why am I going on about this?
  585. 23:26Like, let me just start to eat once and
  586. 23:29for all. This is what it looks like.
  587. 23:33Okay. And that guy just laughed in my
  588. 23:35face. Also, I sat down and ordered and
  589. 23:37this came out in roughly 2 minutes. So,
  590. 23:40I don't know if I should be concerned or
  591. 23:42impressed.
  592. 23:49M. This is so fire. The texture is
  593. 23:52perfect. [music] So much butter.
  594. 23:59[music]
  595. 24:04[music]
  596. 24:05I can't believe this is my last night.
  597. 24:07I'm always going to Kate Paris with this
  598. 24:10view I had off of this balcony now. It's
  599. 24:12kind of like my grounding point in the
  600. 24:14mornings and at night. people watching
  601. 24:15when I wake up and go to bed. [music]
  602. 24:24My last morning on my balcony, I soaked
  603. 24:27it all in. Obviously had to make a
  604. 24:29goodbye cup of coffee. Going to Paris
  605. 24:32definitely did not solve my problems,
  606. 24:34but I do think it really put things into
  607. 24:35perspective for me when I was on this
  608. 24:37trip and I was kind of missing some of
  609. 24:39the people that I loved here and there.
  610. 24:40It made me actually feel so grateful for
  611. 24:43the fact that I am able to miss people.
  612. 24:45Feel so lucky to have people that I love
  613. 24:47so much to miss them. And being in Paris
  614. 24:50was such a beautiful, special trip. I
  615. 24:53will never forget it. I love you guys.
  616. 24:54Thanks for watching. Follow me on
  617. 24:56Instagram if you want to see any of the
  618. 24:58updates and I'll see you in my next
  619. 25:01vlog. Bye guys.
