Whatever you decide to do with your channel is not up to us, do what makes you feel comfortable, happy, and excited. If that means stepping back a bit and producing less videos but feeding your creative juices, then so be it. We’ ll keep watching girl 😊

Never bored by the content and does not feel repetitive! :) Personally, I don't actually enjoy the short form reels or a super pre-planned, narrative style YT video as much as I do a more casual vlog like this one (which can feel more intimate and vulnerable), where we're just with you for the day. Excited for more about Paris!

I would LOVE to see you settle in in Paris, you are living the dream of mine, and just listening how happy you are, and the little things you discover about the city, it brings me so much value and joy. A break for re inspiration is so understandable though, but if you choose to blog your first weeks/months I’ll be here watching

Congratulations on taking the leap! I've been living in Paris for 3 years and I remember those vulnerable early days. Now I'm more comfrotable doing things alone at my own pace: reading, visiting, sitting at a cafe for hours with no pressure to keep ordering or leave. In terms of your content, I'd love to see how it feels to be steeped in Parisian culture after living in the States for so many years.

Elena! Congrats on moving to Paris! We don’t blame you if you need a bit of a YT break. This is a BIG transition! Maybe take the summer to explore the city and share your findings with us in a month or two! best restaurants, coffee shops, museums etc. Whatever direction you take, we’re here for it! 🫶🏼

Please do make the more stylized content ideas that you have but please also keep doing the weekly or weekend vlogs and now that you are in paris, i can watch a long video every day. Thank you for all your creations!

I found your channel 2 years ago when I was planning my first trip to Paris and its been one of my fav channels ever since! Its so hard to find original and beautifully made vlogs. I think theres so much “short” videos out there and what I love about yours is that they are longer but have so much value and beauty! I would def miss them but I also understand what its like to be uninspired!

Please don't take a break! Your videos inspire me so much. Despite the long journey on KZfaq or the lack of creativity I think your videos aren't repetitive because they show different stages of your life. For instante specially for you might seem just the same but it's part of the daily life and of the evolution. You can just post not so regularly! But at the end its your decision :)

I swear you always post at exactly the time I need to see your video! Going through a new phase of life as well, so it's comforting to hear your internal monologue going through yours. 💓 If you need to take a proper pause from KZfaq to soak it all in, I say go for it, and we'll be excited to see what you feel called to capture when you return!

Hiiii, as a French (from the south east not Paris), living in Toronto for the past 10 years and sharing my own experience on social ... I LOOOOOVE watching other people move to my country! About your French, let's be honest it's a hard language, but now you are surrounded by French you'll learn faster. I moved to Toronto with a broken English and after 6 months I was already feeling so much better. I actually about the reality of moving somewhere speaking fluently the language. You might feel lonely sometimes because you don't understand everything around you, even stupid because you can't respond as fast as you would in English. But just want you to know: its normal and I felt the same! But now I'm fluent in English and can't imagine a life where I didn't speak English! Sending love and support from Toronto!

Don’t let your mindset limit you with French!! A lot of language learning is really about mindset, and it sounds like you have a bit of a fixed mindset about not feeling naturally good at learning languages. I moved to Spain as an English speaker and working on shifting my mindset to a growth mindset has made a huge different in fluency. Channel the confidence of a white man speaking a second language and you will fly 🦅

Good luck to both of us.

I just wanted to share a couple personal Paris recommendations: - The Petit Palais is free to look around and is gorgeous as you enter, there's also so much to see downstairs -Maslow is a seasonal vegetarian tapas style restaurant and has some amazing bites! Go with a friend or 2 so you can order lots and share!

you are not boring with your content. I would love Instagram videos as well, but watching you, just being yourself on KZfaq, and going through life, is really inspiring and relatable. Please give us more Paris content, it is lovely :) Also maybe you can make some content, how do you choose your clothing items? You have quite good taste, and it's not that because you're trendy, it is basically you know what goes well with your personality, and body. And I think everyone has something to learn from that :) Anyways, you are doing great, being very inspiring and real, and I love your content :)
