That's my cousin! Great work capturing his space, Mitch. Joelyn and I are the same age and we all grew up together with our other cousins. I got very emotional listening to him speak about our beloved Uncle Lupe and seeing the old photos he shared, because he really was our grandpa-figure as ours his dad's/my mom's side passed before any of us were born. Loved seeing a photo with my brother in it too, the way this was shot and put together really showcased the essence of his stories, and this all felt so nostalgic to someone who grew up with him. I am very proud of Joelyn and his accomplishments, and the man he has become. I also am proud of him for always including his culture because it's something that stays with us through adulthood and our entire lives. Thank you for your work making this, it will be something we will continue to share with our family for a very long time.
Thank YOU@@MitchGeng , your work is incredible, and I am so glad JP met you for this to exist! From one artist and story-teller to another (with photos), keep up the great work.
I'm currently at our home in Alabama and this made me so homesick for my home in Arizona! His style is so true and really reflects his wonderful character character! I automatically felt at home watching this video!
Not only does his space feel SO good and comfortable, but his eloquence is equally impressive. Love the journaling and the nods to his culture. This guy is a winner!
One of the best home tours I’ve seen. The word home in its deepest and truest sense comes through in the description of his possessions. I actually got a little emotional while watching.
What a lovely home. It's the kind of place I always look for on airbnb and is nowhere near as commonly stumbled upon as one might hope. It's got everything; style, character, aesthetically apparent intellectual curiosity of the owner and an easy unpretentious comfortable atmosphere to welcome guests. Great use of not a great amount of space. Thanks for the upload Mitch.
Wow! I love how proud you are of your background/culture and how you have special items from the past in every corner of your apartment. As you told some of your stories I felt like I was listening/watching a movie. Thanks for sharing 🤍
lovely space, very special ! so sorry to hear about your uncles house burning down I'm sure many significant treasures were lost. I hope he is able to comfortably start a new.
Such a rarity to find a gracious charming young man rich with varied experiences from around the world and strong in his convictions and knowing himself. JP's apartment truly reflects himself so perfectly. Love his art work ! I can already see his own style in his beginnings with Plein Air Painting. Keep up with it JP, not many artist can do it. You're a natural ❣
What an amazing capture of multiculturalism, family history, and deeply meaningful possessions. I love the intentional connection to the pre-digital era (no tv, typewriter, written letters, and record player). I also admire the homeowner’s love for art making and the outdoors. I loved this. Thank you. ❤️
The subtle degas drawing flex 😂 His space is so nice, he definitely seems like a calm and fulfilled person through what he does and how he lives . Thanks for sharing!
What a fascinating guy. So thoughtful, interesting, engaged, and multi-talented. I love all the history which informs his space, and explains why his environment has life and soul. His apt. Is filled, but at the same time has a sense of space, and story. I also love that you gave photo credit to the photographer who took the photos of him surfing, and others as well. Harmonica playing at the end was a bonus! So enjoyable and well done.
I looooooved this tour. JP is fascinating, interesting and tasteful, and you've clearly done a fantastic job drawing his story out of him and showing clearly how it's reflected in his gorgeous space. clearly, thoughtful, artistic people tell the best stories, clearly! new subscriber; can't wait to see what else you put out.
Your kids will be blessed to have you as a dad. You are so kind, and also so mature even to the point where you have already saved your journals for them (future kids) to look through if they need guidance.
Fantastic place! I love the fact that you keep a journal, and what a delightful surprise, to find out that you also take the time to write letters! You did not mention the Connor Liljestrom piece sitting on your desk!
Great eye! He did mention it in the full home tour which is close to an hour long, but I had to cut a lot down 😅 His journaling practice also inspired me to start!
Thank you very much for the kind words!! I’m sure I’m not alone in the love for writing on paper! And yes, Connor is a friend of mine and he gifted that piece to me when I visited him at his studio in Wyoming 😊
Mitch is absolutely adorable. So young and so connected with his culture! His apartment reflects that everywhere! This was such an interesting tour. He is surrounded by all the things that remind him of how and where he grew up. He has a very strong bond with his uncle. I am sure that someday when he has a family of his own, he will teach them to be proud of their ancestry. Bravo Mitch. Good luck to you in all your endeavors!
What a nice comment! But this is a home tour of my friend JP, and I agree with you! I'm (Mitch) the person who filmed it for my channel. Thank you. I'm also adorable too. 🤣
Love this warm layered curated space. This gives me hope. I want to rent small places in NYC for visits but I need to achieve this. A home! I love this handsome young man and his lovely well modulated voice talking about this space, and giving us so much personality depth and history regarding the objects that create this warm bird’s nest. He should do more work in front of the camera just because of his presence and the tones of his voice. I wonder if he is a singer also.
Loved this... We have a few things in common! Before you even described the items in your apartment, I knew the connections that you had in your past and present. I'm also Filipino, grew up in Hawaii...Lived in NYC for 10 years...also in the creative field as a creative director. Keep doing what you do!
I just have to comment aside from your interesting/eclectic place I am blown away and intrigued by the background of what makes you, who You are. I can relate from the standpoint that I am a Black American raised by a divorced mom who instilled in me and my siblings a love for all types of cultures heavily influenced by country western and old fashioned blues and jazz then fast forward to adulthood, I marry a country boy from North Carolina whose favorite genre was metal and rock & roll. Who knew, there is surfing in NY!!!
Great space and it’s so personal. Nothing is random decor but has meaning. Love that. And what you said resonated with me. When I first came to London I felt like that. I had a place and I was getting paid for the work I was doing as a graphic designer. Made it 👍🏼
@@MitchGeng Mitch, you are SO awesome. Thanks so much for uploading this exceptional video. You are one special artist as well. I just subscribed to your channel and look forward to watching more of your videos. Big warm hug from L.A., David😊
So funny this video floated up in my recommended - I'm from Clarksdale, MS (birthplace of the Delta Blues, where Robert Johnson supposedly sold his soul to the Devil at the Crossroads)! Come visit if you never have. We keep the Blues alive and know how to get down with festivals in the spring-fall and live music 7 days a week year round. Great video and apartment with a lot of great sentimental details!
I think this may be a rental and the applicances come with the apartment. Additionally, American appliance manufacturers make gigantic stuff meant for suburban families. European-style small appliances that are more suitable for apartments cost much more.
@@jpdalit Brother, you are one special and gifted artist. I'm pretty overwhelmed by your private cocoon. So warm and comfortable and inviting. I just wanna sit in that chair by the window and read your books and listen to your music. All your cherished personal items are so beautiful because of their special meaning to you. If I ever had the guts to move to NYC I'd wanna be your friend. You have such a special artistic soul that just shines through and, of course, the heart of a poet. I wish you so much happiness and joy in your life. Thanks for sharing a bit of your personal world with us. I just subscribed to your channel. Big warm hug from Los Angeles, David 😊
@@davyboysb thank you for the kind words brother. It’s great to know of like-minded individuals who share the same interests. LA is a different beast than NYC but a beast nonetheless and so I’m sure you have guts to be out here! Wishing you the same happiness back and hope you keep your eyes on the horizon!

Letters, photos, a typewriter, books, records -what joy!
Not only does his space feel SO good and comfortable, but his eloquence is equally impressive. Love the journaling and the nods to his culture. This guy is a winner!
I love how he doesn't just know his history, but he also understands and feels it, and it shows how he transformed/designed his home
This guy gets what's important in life. What a lovely home and lifestyle.
One of the best home tours I’ve seen. The word home in its deepest and truest sense comes through in the description of his possessions. I actually got a little emotional while watching.
Thank you for this beautiful comment. I loved the history behind his possessions, and how it truly made it a home unique to him.

What a lovely comment! I always learn something new every time I hang out with him, so it felt good to share his stories with the world!
I am so impressed by you, your art, and the cultural significance of your being …
Thank you for sharing your home, culture and truth. Rarely are there home tours that are original and thoughtful as yours. Enjoy your time in NY.
lovely space, very special ! so sorry to hear about your uncles house burning down I'm sure many significant treasures were lost. I hope he is able to comfortably start a new.
He has a beautiful space, I feel like I learned so much about him from this video alone.
This is a cool guy. I love that clean light pouring into the living space.
Its good to know how proud you are of your roots yet get to live and work in New York. Wishing you the best! 13:53

What a lovely home and awesome background, culture, and home tour.
Love the story about your uncle. Thank you for sharing his world and yours with us.
What a beautiful story, sometimes living in nyc I forgot about heritage, it’s nice to see people going back to their roots
You and your home are beautiful.

Love the western vide!
Your kids will be blessed to have you as a dad. You are so kind, and also so mature even to the point where you have already saved your journals for them (future kids) to look through if they need guidance.
Thank you for sharing your home! I love that it's all meaningful - a real collection of your lived experience.
I like these kind of home tours best where its real people living in real homes. 🎉🥂🎺🍾🥳🥇🏆🎖️
Same! Glad you liked it.
Lovely space! Love how you decorated the place and thanks for showing us 😊
Love the stories ❤

What am incredibly amazing man… the journaling and letter writing spoke to me. His place is nice too :)
Am not expecting i will learn so much about Filipino culture watching just one video. Nice.

Small space but it has a huge character. By the way I really enjoyed the stories!
Really nice to see ALL the toilet seats down

Very interesting guy and great video!
Interesting, intelligent, artistic, and thoroughly attractive guy. I dig his place and I would have liked to learn a bit about his work.
I plan to do a future video focused on the career background/ life of the home tour subjects and he's def someone i would prioritize for that series!
@@MitchGeng Mitch, you are SO awesome. Thanks so much for uploading this exceptional video. You are one special artist as well. I just subscribed to your channel and look forward to watching more of your videos. Big warm hug from L.A., David😊
Cool apartment
The art of letter writing is so lost in this generation. So well put.
CAHD! (cool as hell dude)
love this!
Nice jacket.
Very cute indeed

That sounds amazing!
This really is a home
Nicely decoreted place. Not sure why are there gigantic appliances for one person ( especially in NYC)
I think this may be a rental and the applicances come with the apartment. Additionally, American appliance manufacturers make gigantic stuff meant for suburban families. European-style small appliances that are more suitable for apartments cost much more.
This guy would be quite the catch.
everything is personal…👍
How’s the Brooklyn surfin?
Pretty damn good! 😊
