My mom has started watching your videos along with me and she said "she is just adorable! What a precious girl" 😁
Tell your mom I adore her 🥹🫶🏻
I just wanted to let you know that your videos are what is getting me through 14 night shifts. I work at a copper mine in Canada and your videos are being watched 1.5km (approx 1 Mile) underground. Stay safe on your travels!!!!
For those of us who can't travel overseas at the moment, due to health or any other reason, these videos are wonderful. Keep them coming. We love sharing the sense of freedom you bring with them....
I have lived in Maryland my whole life. Annapolis for most of that time and it’s so interesting to see my everyday normal through new eyes! Also, learning to drive and navigate this city is a rite of passage for us locals so you did great;)
YES - agree! Love seeing our city through others' eyes. I'm making it my goal to start romanticizing it since I think living here my whole life has me so used to everything.
I keep binge watching crime documentaries on youtube that I worry when Michel travel solo so I am praying for her safety all the time. 🙏❤️
AWE! That’s so sweet, thank you for caring for my safety 🤍🤍
Loving these solo travel vlogs! Great to see how much there is to do and see beautiful sights in a city I may have otherwise never looked at traveling to!
Thank you for your bravery Michel! You will help many people, as you always do! I think it’s extremely common to go through weight loss or weight gain during stressful times and especially all that you’ve been through. To me, you look beautiful on the inside and the outside! Much love to you!❤️
I love these... and I love how happy solo trips are making you.
I’ve appreciated seeing all these travel/life vlogs during a difficult season of life for me. I hope you and your family are doing well! ❤️
Thank you for sharing your travels with us. It's great to see you traveling and bringing us along for the journey! Take care
Yes! Another travel Vlog 🤗
Love Annapolis! Glad to were able to tour that great town.
Solo traveling is a huge thing to be able to do in your life. I travel for work solo around the country and I have terrible anxiety when I do but when I am with my Husband, Kids or my extended Family I am just fine. It is a huge accomplishment to conquer this fear as you did Michel. Congratulations and enjoy your trips.
I love this city! I lived on West Street many years ago and I miss it so much! ❤️ So glad you enjoyed your visit!
Michel, you are the most humble person I have ever seen. I would love to have a friend that is this down to earth!
You are just so fun and adventurous! I really love your videos and your personality. You're just a ray of sunshine. Thank you for blessing us with your vlogs.🍓
Loving your videos
Thank you for sharing Annapolis it looked amazing and safe travels home
Love your Solo trip videos ❤
Love this so much and I am so obsessed with your solo travel! Thank you for being such an inspiration to me! I feel so blessed to follow your day to day life! Also all your vlogs are so calming! I hope you've had a good monday! Ilysm
Thank you for helping me be able to make these videos by watching them! It means so much 🤍
You have inspired me and I’m sure countless others as well to travel solo. I’ve been married twenty years and my husband doesn’t enjoy traveling and trying new things so we haven’t done much of it and it never occurred to be to go alone. Now that my kids are college and high school I have more time so I think I’ll start with a solo overnight trip within driving distance and then next grow into a trip involving a flight and finally an overseas trip. Excited and scared all at the same time. Faith over fear!
Maryland native here! It makes my heart happy that you loved Annapolis so much. It's such a beautiful city :)
Annapolis and Maryland are both awesome!!!!
its really nice seeing someone else just wander around with not a lot of plans when traveling. Its one of my favorite things to do and I feel like a lot of people don't get it!
Michel I'm proud of you and you are amazing Supporter and I loved your vlogs
Oh gosh I love Annapolis
This was awesome! Makes me definetely wanna travel!!
Your solo travel vlogs are my favs! Currently living vicariously through you!
I really appreciate you sharing your travels and adventures. Another spit I'd love to visit someday.
Those small towns seems to be so beautiful 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻💕💕💕💕🌼🌺🌸🍀🍀🍀🍀
I’m a new subscriber and I just love your videos. I’m from Annapolis (born and raised) and I love whenever we have sweet visitors like yourself ❤ Annapolis is a small city (MD capital) in a small state but we have big hearts along with tons of history that helped shaped the US. I enjoyed your video! Now it’s time to binge some more.
Michel oh wow, idk where to start. Thank you for being such a motivation in my life. You're very unique, I'm so grateful for your content! 🙏 Again thanks! ❤
Great vlog! Really fun energy and I loved your transition music choices!
Ceremony is so goood!! One of my absolute favorites. Good choice
I am enjoying your “our” little adventures!! It really makes me want to be a little more adventurous!
🥹🥰🤍
Super video Michel. Stunning views oh yes that looked a Beautiful place by the marine for a wedding 😍
Thank you for taking us along .
Have a Great week 🥰
I loveee travel vlogs from you! I usually don’t watch travel vlogs on yt but you find such cute towns! Makes me want to take a trip somewhere by the water 😌💛
Awe! Thank you for watching!🥰
My city!! I hope you enjoyed Annapolis ⚓️
As someone who is from the UK I can say that it does and doesn't look like the UK lol, definitely depends where you go. Loving these solo vlogs, I love being around water. It's when I feel the most at peace xx
Awesome.... thank you for sharing... beautiful places... Best wishes from the UK... X
I never been there before and you got some good shots
I can’t wait to go on my own first solo trip!!
we walk to DTA every weekend. It so fun seeing an "outsiders" view.
I have been to Annapolis more times than I can count! Really glad you were able to experience a bit of my home state :)
I enjoyed the vlog Michel it was fun exploring Annapolis with you and it’s been nice being apart of the friend group
My cousin had their wedding ceremony on a sailboat in Nova Scotia at sunset and it was incredible! Based on your love of sail boats, this might be an idea to table for later :)
Absolutely love your solo travel vlogs (really all your vlogs), and coming along to ‘taste’ local coffee and doughnuts with you. I have now become a local coffee shop try-er and it is so fun and rewarding to support small businesses, and find amazing coffee!
It really is such a fun hobby to find new little coffee spots, isn’t it? Thanks for coming along with me 🥰
Yes! It is a fun hobby! Hope you have a great week Michel 💕
You are so adventurous!! Love watching your trips to exploring the unknown places.... well unknown to people like me who rarely get a chance to travel. Keep up the trips. Prayers & Wishes Lisa Hampton 😃
Thank you for coming along with me!🥰🥰🥰
(Marylander here!)- oh my gosh I LOVE PRESERVE! so glad you went there
OH MY GOSH AND YOU WENT TO CEREMONY YES. they're the best.
Love you 😍
I love your solo trip vlogs!! I live in a small town about 45 minutes from OKC!! I hope you get to explore the city! You should definitely go to the lighthouse on lake Hefner!
Yes I'm in the UK and thought Annapolis looked a little like some of our towns. Love your vlogs, beautiful escapisms and really want to explore the US now :)
I found your channel because I’ve been wanting to go visit Boston and now I’ve watched all your solo trip vlogs You have me wanting to take some of my own and I can’t believe you’re coming to Oklahoma I live here now!!
Ceremony coffee has a few locations around the metro area, and one of my favorites in Baltimore, though I don't think I've been to them in Annapolis. Glad you had a good trip in town 🙂
Looks like a cute city to explore. On your last vlog you mentioned you wanted to stay on a lighthouse & in Ireland you can do that😊😊
What a quaint little town and trip! I have to visit this place. I love new cute places and cafe's too. I just love your vlogs. If you ever are looking for a little town..you should try Lititz, PA.
Its My favorite part of the week A Michel upload YAY HI FRIENDS!!!!
HI FRIEND 🤩
I live in the UK, totally come and visit Yorkshire!!
That brick, cobblestone like street (which we call pavement) really looked very UK-ish. Including the overall look and layout of the buildings. It actually reminded me of a street in a small town that's close to my hometown.
I'm impressed, I'm a native Annapolitan, you found some of the best places in Annapolis!
AWE! That is the highest compliment I could maybe ever receive 😂🥰🤍
I'm from Maryland!!! But closer to the DC side ;) I feel like I rarely see people travel here and vlog it :) So glad you enjoyed your time!
My best friend had her wedding reception at the Annapolis Maritime Museum!
A DREAM😍
I live in Maryland and I love Annapolis and I can say I have never done anything that you choice to do besides walk the downtown. Guess I need to go back and try more new things!!
If you like history you need to come visit Richmond Virginia! And so close to Williamsburg
I so enjoy watching you in your travels! I also have Celiac and it’s actually not an allergy or a food intolerance but an autoimmune disease - the body’s immune system attacks healthy cells, causing a reaction that is sometimes severe and immediate. I too though tell restaurants that I’m allergic as it’s a bit complicated explaining it to people.
Oh yes, exactly! I usually just say “yes” to the allergy question since so many people aren’t educated on celiac and cross-contamination. 🤍
Mama said who’s that? She’s so beautiful! My heart is beaming 🤭❤️❤️❤️
Ceremony Coffee is amazing! My college friends and I discovered their Baltimore location and we LOVED IT. One of my friends loved it so much that she drove the whole way down to Annapolis from central PA to get coffee there (would you believe it if I told you she runs a coffee shop blog lol)
Awesome
Glad you enjoyed Maryland. Downtown Annapolis is my favorite here. Next time have some Maryland crabs!
Yay for travel vlogs!! My fam likes to go to Annapolis for Navy football games and it’s such a cutie town! I’ll actually be there when you are in Ok City with Jordy (otherwise I’d 100% be there to say hi)
Love downtown Annapolis 🥰 I have been there a lot for the mall and tattoo shops because I went to college at the University of Maryland 😂 it's so quaint and pretty in the downtown area
Also if you love downtown Annapolis you should come back to MD and go to downtown Berlin. It has very cute shops and they're repairing a lot of the area 🥰
You should visit St Simon Island Georgia.. Just went there for my BD and I loved 🥰 it ..
I was just thinking it looks like some areas here in the UK!!!
AYYY I’m an Oklahoma native!! You totally need to visit the Myriad Botanical Gardens and the greenhouse there in OKC!!
OOH WRITING THIS DOWN!
I did Chesapeake bay oyster restoration in college so they gave me some warm fuzzies
I used to live in Annapolis on the same peninsula as Thomas Point Park. I'd run there almost daily. I well remember the dinosaur!
Annapolis is where I live and work. Welcome to my hometown
The world is truly your Oyster.. 🙏
You would LOVE Alexandria if you’re out that way again!!!
Waitttt...I live in OKC. In the Nichols Hills/Classen Curve area, you may really love the stores (juice bar, Aveda, Kendra Scott, etc.) and they have a Trader Joes very close by. There is a pizza place you and Jordy might like called Upper Crust Woodfire pizza. Jordy might like the R.E.I store too that is close by. I hope you both enjoy Oklahoma ❤️💙.
Ah I would go for the cat alone 😅🥰😍
I love exploring downtown in my city. It is absolutely beautiful in downtown Boise. You should Boise, ID to your list.
Really enjoying these travel blogs. I feel like I’m there even though I’m here on my little Island 🇨🇾👌
That makes me so happy 🥹🥰
I've recently started going the oat milk latte route whenever I visit a new place, inspired by you! Haha, it's actually a really great call!
It’s a good “baseline” for a new spot to see if it’s worth coming again and trying the more ~fun~ options, in my opinion 🥰
I love the solo travel vlogs. I’m heading to Nashville on a solo trip in a few weeks and can’t wait. I’ll have to rewatch your video for coffee spots. When you’re ordering, do you ask if the oat milk is gluten free? Or do you know of a safe brand?
You’re right about spending a solo day around your own town. I do that regularly and it’s so good for the soul!
I hope you have the BEST time in Nashville! If I’m not familiar with the coffee shop, I usually ask what brand the oat milk is and I know which ones I trust :-) but sometimes I honestly forget and risk it, I should be better!
@@MichelJanse Thank you 🙏🏻
Hope you enjoy my city :) Be sure to check out Frothy Monkey (3 locations- all great!), Five Daughters Bakery, and walk around Hillsboro Village + 12 South (a few of my fav spots ☺)
@@emilyencapsulated9540 Thank you for the tips! I’m adding these spots to my list! 💕
There's a dog beach at quiet waters park. It's a nice place to sit and watch dogs swim and run around :)
Yes, Travel Vlog people, all of you, Annapolis is the state capitol
If you want great coffee on every corner, go to Washington state! I was born and raised there and coffee runs through my veins 😅
❤️❤️❤️
Come to Rhode Island❤️ plan for a meet up with your subscribers.
I like the new profile picture!
❤️
Hi! Quick question: I got the Kodak F9 but can't seem to figure out how to know how many shots I have left. Do you just remember all the pictures you've taken to know how many you still have in the film, or is there any way to know that I'm missing? Thank you! :)
Hi Michel, how are you,how was your weekend? I just love watching you video and I couldn’t get enough of them and I’m always speechless. What your favs go to makeup brands besides ILIA OR MERIT?
Thank you 🥰 I love both Merit and Illia a TON! I also use a lot of glossier, though they’re not as “clean” of a brand as the others :-)
You need a trip to Atlanta. There are some cute smaller towns not far from the city-you’d especially love Serenbe and both Roswell and Alpharetta, just outside of the city. But IN Atlanta is one of the best bakeries ever. It’s called Hell Yeah Gluten Free, and every single thing in there you can eat. It’s open wednesdays-Sundays and it has the kind of cult following in ATL that has people waiting in line to load up on gluten free (& sometimes vegan) treats!!
Omg this sounds like a DREAM
@@MichelJanse It actually is. Whatever you want, they have--ALL Gluten Free. Their sausage, egg, cheese biscuit sandwich is one of the best I've had. Their donuts are legit amongst the best you'll ever have (and I moved away from Boston before that donut shoppe was built, so I can't speak to its splendor). Their oatmeal cookie sandwiches...their lemon yuzu pound cake...their, well, EVERYTHING. :)
Hiiii 🥰
I started watching your TH-cam videos because I saw you were going through a divorce. I’m 62 years old but my wife left to live in a new town 2 years ago.although we’re still married just separated we still love each other very much . Anyway I just wanted to tell you I enjoy watching your vlogs God bless you,and keep vloging❣️
Do you have any plans to go to new york at all? Id love to give you some recs!
When I travel solo I tend to get super lonely and depressed at a certain point during my day. I want someone to share my experiences with. Do you have any advice for this? I'm doing a solo day trip soon.
Is the mini tree that’s in your bedroom where you film real? It’s so pretty! I have trouble getting my plants enough light and I think that one is so cute 🙂
