[@cynthiahoekstra8060]

Thank you sooo much for sharing things from your homeland! So special!

[@elizabeth75000]

Love this!❤❤

[@janetc5716]

First time listening, loved your video. ❤

[@katnuccio85]

This was SO interesting. Thank you!

[@ToniBergquist]

So happy you are back home safe! I enjoyed seeing your haul! Looking forward to seeing your pictures! Toni

[@sandracollins7938]

Wonderful items to learn about & want.Tell Scott to share his licorice candy with me .....YUM!

[@patriciaconiglio6717]

Loved this video and all the interesting and lovely things you brought back. Hope you are feeling better. Please rest and take care of yourself.

[@elsiealba-limas8408]

Sofia I would probably buy the same things that you have...I am glad that you got back safely. Loved everything you bought and very enlightening. Happy that you share with us.

[@Around_the_253]

OMG! You should do a tour guide trip for people to go and stock up on products. I’d pay to go on a short vacation and stock up on wonderful products. Many of the same products that are available in Europe or other countries sometimes have different ingredients so it might not be the price but also quality due to ingredients. Thank you for sharing your video.

[@tomsdotter3228]

Seeing all these things was so much fun. I'm going to check out some of them, especially le Papier D'Armenie. Thanks!

[@lauramclaine504]

Wow, I enjoyed the video and seeing all the gifts can you adopt me?😜 Thanks for taking the time to show us. I had a neighbor who used to travel to Paris and she was born in Germany and she used to bring back stuff as well that she grew up with. She would say, especially the baking stuff was by far the best.🦋💕

[@lanaritter9410]

Oh my! I loved it, wish I had a box or 2 of those macarons!!! Thankful you went well prepared to shop and bring home all your goodies!❤❤

[@robynspersonaltraining3593]

I searched for Biafine. That sounds good. The toothpaste sounds good too. Paradontax. I pronounce Twinings with a long i as in the way you say I. I’m Australian but my Dad was English. I can’t stand any of the Grey teas. Each to their own. I enjoyed watching you sharing your French treasures. It was a fun video. Thanks Sophia x

[@riograndelily8344]

OH MY !!!! I saw the lion bars at a vintage candy store nearby. I'm going to go buy some and taste them. Loving this video. Thank you Sophia. Sorry for all the comments. lol

[@mygreatchallenge]

Run. Buy them all!! Lol!

[@H_adventuresandtries]

Really enjoyed this - thank you From Cape Town, South Africa

[@GinaRich24]

Glad you had a great time in France 🙂 Le Chief looks so sad especially when you told him no & then gave attention to his fur kitty sister ❤

[@mygreatchallenge]

Uhh he grabbed an entire bar of chocolate. So yeah, I don't think I am going to let him do that.

[@GinaRich24]

@@mygreatchallenge I absolutely agree! He was definitely trying to sneak the goodies, & yes chocolate is a no no for our fur babies. ❤️

[@kimberlymiller655]

Love it. I clicked so quickly!! That perfume smells so delicious!! I bought the Alt knock off !!

[@kimberlymiller655]

Love it. I clicked so quickly!!

[@gigieyre]

I enjoyed this so much! Thanks for sharing!

[@flipsforfun6116]

Thank you for sharing Sophia

[@christaludwig9395]

Such a fun video! Enjoyed it so much.

[@eileenriker2262]

Very interesting Sophia, glad you are back home .

[@melissaspencer632]

This was great! I would love to try that tea!

[@suzie2080]

What an interesting and fun video!

[@gigigigi1508]

I really enjoyed it your video. Thank you for sharing ❤

[@riograndelily8344]

Thank you Sofia just bought Biafine for 23. $ on line. Can't wait to use it!

[@mygreatchallenge]

It s great on elbows!

[@donnawiseman9311]

I enjoyed this!! It was very interesting!!

[@wthesandrashearman8534]

Thank you for sharing I found it very interesting 😘

[@briteddy9759]

This was fun to watch. I am originally from Norway and much of what is available there is available here also, but there are some nostalgic items I bring back. I always bring back brown cheese. Yes, I can get it here in the US, but the variety is so much bigger and the Norwegian ones taste better. I also bring back certain candies and some chocolates. Again, it is a nostalgic thing! I don’t make purchases to save money. Norway is expensive, though with a strong dollar, it is not as expensive anymore. P.S. I am going to try the toothpaste. I found it on Amazon. Thanks for a fun video!

[@ralugator]

This video makes me miss Europe so much! Lovely products.

[@tonpap]

Thank you for sharing your French little treasures. There are things I can find in my country but I have never paid too much attention to them. I will check them out.

[@meganallen2674]

I loved this episode' ❤ how is your Mum?

[@colombepetite]

I honestly didn’t think I’d be much interested in seeing things I don’t have access to, but I was so wrong. (I would still watch your video though!) This was a great and interesting video. Also, the things that did interest me were ones I may find online. So very glad I watched.😊

[@michellegonthier6251]

Thank you for sharing your adventures with us. And letting us know the price differences and the advice.

[@karendepasquale6078]

Loved this video. Just wish I would have had all of that info for our trip we had in early July. Lol.

[@reginabrown5059]

Enjoyed

[@Crochetlady3-l1o]

Hi Sophia! I really enjoyed this video! Especially the soaps , and the teas and coffees! (My husband is Thai and a big tea drinker). I know you enjoyed your time with mom. Feel better and thank you for sharing. Hi from SC!😊💕🏝️

[@tommiearbeau808]

Very interesting. Thank you for sharing.

[@cathypenn1073]

I love this video so much! My granddaughter and I made homemade macaroons so many times ,but they are so labor intensive. It is both of our favorites. I hope someday I can go to France.

[@luella2897]

Very interesting!

[@melaniemallozzi3851]

Everything looks awesome. I hope you’re gonna post the Vlogs because I’ve never been to France and it’s definitely on my list of places to go so I would love to see where you recommend to go. And things to do also because I know France is known for spots you can go to

[@lindsayholroyd7477]

There are some beautiful vlogs from France and Paris that Sophia has taken the time to do and has uploaded in the past. Well worth checking out if you have never been to France. Hope you enjoy them🙂🇨🇵🥖🥐

[@francesfox667]

merci, Sophia. I so long to visit Paris , Lourdes, lisiuex ( sp) Provence , Normandy etc. Thank you for sharing your haul. Blessings to you and maman (sp) ,

[@kathleensauer3394]

Love this entire video! Im Wondering if the Laduree in Nyc is the same? I agree they are delicious but ive only had the ones from nyc

[@reneewolf1738]

Very nice things, I would love to try some of the skin care and the lion bars and macaroons

[@wendajones9040]

That’s a great haul!

[@ruthdennisKnits]

I really enjoyed this video. Please, WHAT BRAND IS YOUR NAIL POLISH 💅🏾❓

[@flamingodiego]

We have Harobo in Canada, and we have a similar chocolate cookie in Canada, not Nutella, but similar. I love seeing all of your goodies.

[@JuliaLina83]

Tu as posté hier et mon impatience de me lever ce matin et de t'avoir pour le petit déjeuner était grande

[@judithtitterington9862]

Loved it, saved a fortune, not going anywhere.. how was mum, hope she is well.

[@nancybrower8608]

Thank you for sharing. Did you go to the jewelry store? Buy anything? Welcome home❤

[@mygreatchallenge]

I did. That will be in one of the videos.

[@dietkeh.582]

The best tea is twinings Earl grey in the Black Box.

[@mygreatchallenge]

Debatable

[@trovey02]

I recognize a lot in this video as an European except the emulsion you showed, just ordered it from a French pharmacy just now.

[@tinastanley3552]

I have never heard of that toothpaste, I live in the UK so I looked it up on Amazon UK and they are selling it for £16.00 for 3 75ml tubes is that a good price?😊 Also I was surprised you liked the Lion bar that's a British chocolate bar it's good but Cadbury is better UK Cadbury that is...also that liquorice bark we had when I was a child also 😁 never liked but Mum told us it was good for you

[@mygreatchallenge]

I never knew it was a UK candy I should go check out our UK store and swe if they have it. We have it in France si ce I was a kid, they re making cereals now too. I think the 1000 grands here is similar.

[@tinastanley3552]

O yes they may have it there but I pretty sure.its mostly Cadburys,I haven't had the cereal it would be interesting to try but could imagine it to be very sweet 😊

[@riograndelily8344]

Darling Sophia, Would it be possible for you or should I rather say it is too difficult for you to sell all these French things on your Etsy? I would love to buy some .

[@mygreatchallenge]

They re all gone!!! The kids leveled them! Co workers still rationing. All I have left is the tea. But it s not a bad idea for my next trip, though I don't think it s legal. 🤔

[@Debbie.4263]

It's very interesting to see all the wonderful items from France. Do you ever consider moving back to France?

[@mygreatchallenge]

No. My life has been here for the past 33 years

[@maryannpapandrea3086]

Did you ship all these things and if so, how much did it cost you?

[@mygreatchallenge]

No I go to France with one empty suitcase for the purpose of coming back with all this stuff plus whatever else I purchase and come back home with. My mother loves there.

[@sabrinab9991]

Sophia, Would you spell out the house scent item? If I ever get to France I’m getting Biafine and licorice.

[@mygreatchallenge]

Papier d ' armenie

[@sabrinab9991]

THANK YOU!!

[@juliebrooke6099]

How strange. I think Twinings is an English brand but we can’t buy Russian Earl Grey here. I’d never even heard of it. Lady Grey is available but that has orange added,not lemon. I’m going to get some next time I’m in France.

[@mygreatchallenge]

You can find Russian earl grey but from different brands but not the twinnings in the US. I have no idea why.

[@theresalee2266]

Would any of this stuff be found in Quebec?

[@mygreatchallenge]

I would not know. I have never been

[@theresalee2266]

@@mygreatchallenge check it out . Not far from New Jersey. You would love Quebec City or Montreal.

[@KM-mp6gj]

Hi Sophia! Some of the things I can find here in Montreal. I know that there is Roger&Gallet but i have to check specifically for what you showed. Segafredo coffee is in European stores, not sure about the tea but i can check. I also saw those cookies here, the mini-sandwiches ones and the French round ones (my kid loves them!!)

[@trovey02]

d Don't use that root when you have high blood pressure!

[@kotokoo]

Toothpaste with prescription? That sounds weird. Paradontax is sold in Spain too. The only reason I can think for the tea is that said Russian in the name, if they sell all the other types. I love that tea but never knew its name because I bought one time loose and the next time I go to the store they didn't have it, I need to look for that tin. In a quick search, I found a dupe from Carrefour. Segrafedo is a good coffee. St Michell Galettes are delicious. The one with the face too, they remind me of the Prince (I'm guessing the name in French, in Spain are called Principe) cookies but in square. That kind of Suchard it isn't for sale here, maybe for Christmas. ¡Paloduz! I love it as a child, then you can found in candy stores, but now it's very difficult to find. I love licorice

[@peggydierks6988]

I used that tooth paste when I lived in the UK

[@AmandaBaias]

When is mom moving in with you?

[@mygreatchallenge]

That is for her to determine. She s coming for an extended visit over the winter. We ll see after that.

[@AmandaBaias]

@@mygreatchallenge ❤️

[@ACGNikki]

Parodontax is here! That's what I use, and yes it's the BEST. I get mine at Walmart.. I'm sure nearly every store has it. It's about $6-7 but it's well worth it, imo.

[@mygreatchallenge]

I never saw it here in my NJ area. Which state do you live in?

[@ACGNikki]

@@mygreatchallenge oops, i said a url in my reply, so it might've went to ur 'comments for review' pile lol..
