The baking class looks nice. French pastries are always so nice and delicate. They turned out really well, nice one. The speakeasy tour looks like fun.

The pastries were delicious. It was nice to see how delicate the baker worked making them. Glad I could learn how to do so as well. And they were delicious. Probably the best I’ve had! Thanks for watching!

I'm also a solo traveler, so it's always refreshing to find other fearless solo travelers. People think we are crazy lol. I would love to see a video of you breaking down how you put your itinerary together and the costs. France is on my list. It looks like you made full use of your time there. Love it 💎

I don't have a planning video for France. But I break down my planning process when I went to Spain a few years ago. You may check it out here: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/q5uqqrWJx5rMeok.html. Thanks for watching!

You've literally taken me along with you to France, which is such a beautiful country . The cooking class part was my favorite. This chef took her time putting you through the making process. Wow, i love how well the croissant turned out
@KitatheExplorer5 ай бұрын
The chef really spent her time showing us how to accurately bake croissants. And you could tell she was passionate about her craft. Thanks for watching!

Ah Paris! I love the City of Light and Love. The food scene is to die for. Great market. I'd love to do the baking class. Always down for a cheeky drink at a speakeasy.
@KitatheExplorer5 ай бұрын
The food scene is definitely amazing in Paris! And you can never go wrong with a speakeasy! Thanks for watching!

I hear it rains a lot in Europe but I like the rain. 😂 It’s very relaxing. The cooking class looked super fun. The architecture is so amazing there. I can’t wait to visit.
@KitatheExplorer5 ай бұрын
In France and Spain, I know they have a rainy season which is in November. But other parts of the year that is not the experience. Now London/UK is known for it raining a lot. But overall the weather is pretty similar to the US when it comes to rain. Obviously different parts of the continent vary. And the cooking class was a grand time! Thanks for watching!

Omg… that cooking class looked like so much fun.. Yes, it was indeed a “masterpiece”. And that brush looked like a floor brush. LOL…

The cooking class was so much fun! And every single one of those pastries tasted so good. And lol it kind of looked like a floor brush, it would’ve gotten me but the handle comes out to the side instead lol. Thanks for watching!

Hi Kita, I must confess that you saved the best for last. France is known for best croissants in the world & you're right there learning how to make it yourself. I can't wait to see you do this in your own kitchen. Congratulations in advance 👏
@KitatheExplorer5 ай бұрын
I’ve been working on them at home. It’s been hard trying to find the same ingredients but I think I may have found the last of it on Amazon! So hopefully I can try to recreate them soon! Thanks for watching!

That baking class was incredible! I’m so glad I did the class. And that croissant. Phew. It was so good. The instructor actually pointed out a few that she would buy at a store and mine was selected. Thanks for watching!

Unfortunate that you had such rainy weather on your last day in Paris and that there were so many traffic and protest issues. However, that baking class was an excellent way to spend time indoors. I never knew the croissant rolling trick! The mobster bar looked so fun!!
@KitatheExplorer5 ай бұрын
Despite the rain, I still enjoyed my time there! But I’m glad I had the baking class scheduled for this day even though I didn’t know it would rain lol. And that was the first time I learned the croissant rolling trick too. Thanks for watching!

Kita I’ve really enjoyed your France vlogs. I always hear mixed reviews about France particularly Paris. But everywhere you go it seems like you have a great time and it looks like so much fun!
@KitatheExplorer5 ай бұрын
I’ve glad you have enjoyed my France series! And I definitely had a great time. And as for the mixed reviews, Paris is one of the most visited cities for various reasons. But at the end of the day, it’s a city and it isn’t for everyone. Thanks for watching!

Living viciously through you lol. I swear I would gain so much weight visiting Paris lol. The market looks bomb! It's really cool that you took a cooking class. I LOVE CROISSANTS!!!

What a great time you had. Too bad it was your last day. The speakeasy tour gave you a great opportunity to meet other “tourists” would have been nice to be able to meet up with some of them while there. but at least some of you had dinnner together afterwards.
@KitatheExplorer5 ай бұрын
It was definitely a sad day to leave my favorite place. And no worries, I met and encountered a lot of different place during my two weeks in France. You just never know who you may meet when traveling. Thanks for watching!

Did she say the purpose of streaming the pastries before baking them? The pastries came out so nice, looks yummy! 😋
@KitatheExplorer5 ай бұрын
Yes it helps with the layering of the dough while cooking as it keeps the moisture in the croissant instead of evaporating which is what happens when it goes directly to the oven. It’s not the end of the world but it will be a different outcome.

Haven’t been to Paris. I would love to visit there someday. I’m just not sure a solo traveller, like if I try, I would stay in the hotel the whole time 🤣🤣 Do you plan your itinerary before reaching your destination or you just let it flow once you get there.
@KitatheExplorer5 ай бұрын
I always recommend when traveling solo for the first time to do something near home where you feel comfortable going to places but aren’t in your home. That will let you know if you could do it or not. And yes I usually plan my trip especially when it comes to classes and such. But I don’t plan the entire trip to allow for some random moments and wandering. Thanks for watching!
