  • Five of my favorite things to do in Montmartre, even if it's pouring rain. The 18th arrondissement of Paris, on our way through all 20 arrondissements. Grab a copy of my guide to Paris at go.parisinmypocket.com/20in20 to get all my recommendations, and help me make better videos at / jayswanson then find me on the internet in all of the usual spots:

    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, vlogged daily for 3+ years, and love pizza a little too much.

    FAQ:
    How long have you lived in France? Over five years now, holy cow.
    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/JaysGearList
    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...
    Do you make money off TH-cam? - Ha, sorta. 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 $5/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/jayswanson
    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. So instead people often drop off or ship things to the Peloton Cafe in Paris for me.
    Thanks for watching!

    The painter Maurice Utrillo painted pictures of that pink house several times. I think he’s only known because he was painting urban landscapes in that area when other more famous painters were there.

    Appreciated your previous advice about Sacre Coeur when we were there in April (appreciate the less crowded view/park from the back, visit the Dome) --a highlight of our trip for sure! And Lord of Barbès looks like a cool spot to visit next time.

    Hi Jay! Thanks for your tips! I was in Paris last month and i wish you had finished the 20 in 20 before. 😂 Also it would be really nice if you could share a little bit more of each arrondissement 😊it feels like it wasn’t enough time. I am thinking of going to either Spain or Italy next year, do you have any suggestions of youtubers that have your same vibe? Thanks for the hard work!

    I LOVE Montmartre, it's one of my favorite places. I bought a painting there, in 1099, my first trip to Paris. I see it daily and really enjoy that. I'm old, I don't walk up to Montmartre, I take the funicular. The little train is fun if you have time. Hmmm, does that mean I can't have any tacos? 😲

    Do you think staying in montmarte if you are visiting Paris is a good idea? Or someplace more central like Latin Q, and La Marais

    • @JaySwanson
      @JaySwanson  3 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      I tend to argue for more central to maximize your time, but if you want the vibe, Montmartre makes a lovely stay (just means more time spent commuting)
