    🍁”I’m not five!”😩 I felt that statement to my core, Malick. Sometimes, you have control the situation for your own comfort.🤷🏾🍁

    Thanks for your incredible perspectives in all your videos. You were so much happier in the video when you left the hostel. You are very inspiring and it would be a joy to travel with you. If you are ever in the UK again, I'll take you for some superb Chinese and Thai! Keep smiling and spreading joy.

    What a great vlog Malick and especially in your own hotel room where you can move freely. I am so happy that you have experienced so much in a short period of time you have learned so much. I think we as people put a timeline on life myself included and feeling guilty about taking vacations and enjoying things. You have so much to offer and by you being in Paris by yourself you feel so free and get to know yourself more. Oh and I feel your pain about the Pastry Shop being closed because I would be mad too lol. I just had to take a step back from following a dream where life is telling me to wait and not rush it will happen.

      thank you Randy! it's so funny I think this was my favorite of the three and I wasn't expecting that. it was so fun and filled with play which is what life should be haha and yes I feel like it's apart of our society to shame people for the wrong things, a vacation should just be enjoying! and yesss you do get to know yourself more especially being abroad solo. I think that's important. and I was so madd about the crookie shop! that'll be one of the first stops when i'm back haha! and I love that you're listening to life's nudges. I am excited for that dream to come true for you!

    I enjoyed the Paris videos you have shown us. I admire your bravery for doing your first solo international trip. I stay domestic and take advantage of International when my company flies me there. What I think is really cool, you visiting the city and not the tourist areas like The Louvre or Versailles. And glad you went to moneprix, I never leave CDG without getting butter, croissants, and a baguette. You are awesome, can't wait to see your next video. 😃

    Hey friend! We are literally sooo much alike . I yet to not really have used my benefits for leisure other than commuting home to Alabama from Boston (every other month )
    I don’t have a bucket list as of right now due to our low pay but I kind of always to just go to Paris ! So thanks for posting this experience because now I know what to expect or else I’d be lost and confused thanks to you !
    Also , I don’t really have desire because the job itself even traveling domestically is enough for me I don’t like to take too much time off unless really needed. I’m reserve I pick up extra hours on my flexible off days multi pairings (Got to hustle 🏃‍♂️ l💰 know the bills don’t pay themselves )
    I don’t want to travel alone in unfamiliar cities it will give me anxiety!
    And the drinking lol I’m one that doesn’t drink ether ! Any small intake of alcohol will hit me real quick !!

      Awww this makes me smile Jay - thank you! happy these vids will serve as a resource for you when you go to Paris! I could also totally see you operating transatlantic! Our job is a lot on its own and I definitely have my moments where I can't imagine going back to the airport for leisure haha. But whenever you have the energy and can make it work financially, it's so cool to use the benefits -- even if it's just to go to another state. New Mexico really surprised me...saw the most beautiful sunset there. And if anything picking up layovers you don't usually do can allow you to travel while having that sense of safety and security the job provides. Sending you my loooove!

    Hostel, hotel? It's strange to me that you wouldn't stay with one of your subscribers. I'm sure many of us would be happy to host you. Just like taking advantage of your flight benefits you should take advantage of having thousands of subscribers. Next time you're in the city let me know. You might not be comfortable sharing my place with me as it's a studio but perhaps I'm not in the city at the time and then you can have it for yourself.

    • @malickmercier

      Thank you so much - this is incredibly generous of you, Sebastian! I really appreciate the offer, but I prefer to arrange my own accommodations when I travel. I hope you understand! When im back hopefully I can host some sort of meetup. It would be so fun to meet those of you who watch from France!

      @malickmercier I understand but I believe you should change your ways.

    Dude you come to France without announcing it,… why don’t you try to meet your followers when being abroad ??

    • @malickmercier
      @malickmercier  2 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Blake! It would be a dream of mine to connect in person with y’all esp abroad. I didn’t have time to plan a meetup this time around but, I’ll keep it in mind for future trips!
