HOW did I end up in Paris? | Story of why I moved abroad

So, how did I end up moving to Paris?
After traveling to Italy when I was 16, I made a promise to myself that I would live in Europe before the age of 30. And I made it happen! In today's video I'm sharing the story of what sparked my big move abroad (risks, lessons, setbacks, and all!).

Hey guys! I’m Tiff - a lover of food, travel, and good vibes. After traveling to Italy when I was 16, I made a promise to myself that I would live abroad before I was 30. And I made it happen! In 2017, I tapped out of my #PRgirl lifestyle to pursue an MBA in Paris. Yes, Paris! The timing was all too perfect. Jumping out of my comfort zone and moving to Paris, was the scariest thing that I’ve done in life thus far, and I couldn’t be happier with my decision. Now that I’m finally settling into life here, I’ve decided to refocus some of my energy on a project that I’ve been trying (and failing) to launch for a while - my KZbin channel! This channel is my outlet for sharing more about my life abroad and the life lessons learned along the way.
________
Today’s video is all about how I moved to paris, how i ended up in paris, why I moved to paris, story of why I moved abroad, reason why I moved to paris, reason why I moved abroad, american who moved to paris, american who moved abroad, american who lives in paris, african american who moved to paris, african american who moved abroad, how did I end up moving to paris, american living abroad, african american living abroad, paris vlogger

In 2008, I was literally sitting in my house in North Carolina, unemployed, asking God what was I going to do next. My phone rang and it was a job recruiter in South Korea. I applied for the job as a joke knowing nothing would come from it. Well, I’ve been a happy ex-pat since November 2008.

Can I just say this entire video brought tears to my eyes! Whew!!! I sent this to my daughter who talks non-stop about moving to Paris one day. I took her for her 25th birthday and once we arrived, she said I feel at home, this just confirms this is where I am supposed to be mom. That made me smile. As for you, I love your energy and enthusiasm. I love seeing young people going after what they believe in. I have manifested quite a few things in my life, including moving to San Francisco which is where I am currently living. It's so surreal when your dreams turn into a reality. Keep dreaming big baby girl and keep sharing your stories, you're such an inspiration to others!

[@annelliott3810]

I pray your daughter moves to Paris!

My 20’s was all about travelling and meeting new people. Now in my 30’s, I’m a mom of a little girl and pregnant with our 2nd. I love that I had that time to explore different countries & cultures. I feel that I now will broaden my children’s minds with my experiences! God is good! I’m now living my 2nd part of my dream... being a mom 💕 I don’t know you but I’m happy you’re living your dream! Paris is beautiful ❤️ 🥰 Love, your new 🇨🇦 subscriber!

[@ktc_la1983]

OMG. You're a phenomenal storyteller. You didn't lose my attention for 1 second. I love that you so effectively hit the most impactful points of the story and that you're so aware of what that whole journey was ultimately about for you. I KNOW this video was for me (among the other people who feel the same way) so THANK YOU for sharing!! I almost shouted when I read "when you take the leap, the net appears"...you have no idea how timely this is, but I'm sure you can imagine. Anyway, merci encore. I will make my own move to Paris real. Finally. It will take some pushing through fear (but I've done this before with a quick move to NYC not knowing a soul, after I got an unexpected acceptance to grad school), so I don't doubt for a second that je peux faire ça à Paris aussi. - Blessings to you!!

[@TiffanieDavis]

KTC 1908 Thank you and it makes me sooo crazy happy that my story resonated with you!! Also excited to hear that you’d like to move to Paris, girl if you can get yourself to NYC you can get yourself anywhere I’m convinced 🤣, my move to NYC was a lot too.

[@ceal4046]

Honestly, unless you have a job and plan to write on the side, I say this as a Londoner working in the arts, this is a terrible plan!! London is a super expensive city, you would need to have a lot saved up and if you aren't from an EU country (Well, Brexit is going to change all that anyway), can't get a visa to just chill out in London for a year.

[@teachermomo2624]

[@karinacazares6367]

Love this video! So happy for you! In college I applied to an internship program in Thailand for the summer. I had briefly talked about it with my mom but she thought I was joking. I didn't tell her I applied until I got accepted and then asked if I could go. Thankfully she said yes and I applied and received scholarships from school to help offset the cost. By far one of the best experiences I've ever had! I went alone with 3 other students I hardly knew and we learned to navigate a country non of us had been to, we didn't know anyone, and we definitely didn't know the language very well.

[@janiecehenderson8]

New Subscriber here! You’re story is awesome and I’m so happy that you followed your dreams. It’s really an inspiration to me. I’m a bit older (37) and have always had an affinity for Paris. I love writing and it’s where some of the best writers have gone to gather inspiration. But, life gets in the way. You get a job, start collecting a paycheck, acquire bills etc. You get into a cycle and before you know it, time has past. Your channel has reinvigorated me to follow my dream of being there. Thanks so much! ❤️

It’s 4AM here in Atlanta, GA and this is literally the last video I watched before bed (class in the AM!)... as soon as you said you went to HU I felt chills!! I visited Paris in February and would’ve NEVER imagined even being able to visit, but i decided there that I would find my way back. And then i come across your videos! Meant to be is an understatement. It’s all possible... I would’ve never imagined. Thank you thank you thank you!

I bought a house during the pandemic, I am about to start my own bookkeeping business and I do thankful to God for leading your way. Thank you for your story it was my inspiration. I was supposed to be in Paris last month but everything was cancelled. So unbeknownst to me, that is how everything started falling into place. With this home now I will have a home base when I do begin my travels. I can either rent it out not sure just yet. And I will be able to work from anywhere with my own online business.

Thanks for sharing. I have dreamed of living in Paris since forever. Gives me hope that dreams really can come true even when you least expect it.

[@lara94]

Loved hearing your story! I can totally relate to you and the craziness of just following your gut and not planning out 5 or 10 years in advance. About 1 1/2 years ago, I suppose, I felt stuck in the way I was living (Uni, roommates/friends) and just had the feeling I'm not using all my potential or having not the right surroundings to change my way of thinking. I remember, when I was a child, me and my family watched a documentary about the Great Barrier Reef and I just said out loud "One day I will be diving right there". Fast-forward, I ended up looking for study abroad options, in particular states with English as a main language. Australia popped into my mind, because I knew that I would never fly this long for only vacationing there. I started looking at possible Unis, gathering Information at my hometown University for going abroad, took a language skill test and as simple as that, I was applying for Universities in Australia. As soon as I got the first confirmation, I knew I was on the right path, but wanted to wait for one particular Uni before excepting any other. Well, what can I say, sometimes following your gut and trusting yourself is all you need to do. I got into my first choice of Uni in Australia, went diving TWICE in the Great Barrier Reef and had the best time and experience of my life so far!!

[@TiffanieDavis]

Love this thank you so much for sharing!! So important to follow your gut and the path that’s being laid out for you! 🙌🏾

I’d been feeling the UK since middle school. My junior year of HS I went to a college fair with my mom and was browsing colleges in in Florida, NYC...but then I saw a booth with a big British flag hanging from it. I turned to my mom and said, “ma, I’m going there.” She said: “ha, yeah right.” A year and a half later I was at university in London, stood there for 5 years from 18-23 years old. No experience could’ve ever compared to literally growing up and becoming who I am in London. Being an expat is a one of a kind experience.

[@janellb4370]

New subscriber! I have always wanted to live in Paris and honestly seeing someone that looks like me (and is American) taking a leap of faith and doing it is so inspiring! I think I'm still somewhere at the beginning of my story (I'm 24). I have always loved fashion and clothing. I can even remember silly things like when I received a class award of "most likely to be a fashion designer" in 5th grade....but instead of going that route in college, I decided that I wanted to work in the Public relations field and majored in communications (which I loved). However, I eventually realized that I did not want to work in PR and went back and forth with what I thought I was supposed to do. After I graduated I took a job that I grew to dislike (but learned from)...I realized that I do not want to work for anyone and I need to be creative! Now I co-own a wardrobe styling business that my sister and I run together full time! God's timing is amazing and when I look back on my life so far I can see how everything I have done has lined up so well-- but I also know this is the beginning for me! I have only watched 3 of your videos and I am just reignited and excited for what is to come and how it's going to happen. I definitely do not think I just "stumbled" upon your channel but that I was meant to see it :) Thank you

For me, my change came a few years ago. Got my bachelors in business then worked as an accountant for nearly 12 years. I was fed up and looking for something that spoke to me. Applied for an msw program, got in, did great and got my license a few months. Currently running my program in a field that I genuinely enjoy and feel challenged on a regular basis which i love

[@SJanez91]

When I was in my junior year of college as a Criminal Justice major, there was a TEFL program that would come to my campus to have information sessions every summer and fall to see if students would be interested in teaching English overseas. I kept seeing ads for it all over campus and even seen a few pop-ups online so I thought this sounds like something I would be interested in so I decided to go to the information session one evening. I'm glad I did because the people would were there that night including myself we were able to get $200 off for signing up for the program. Thankfully I had just gotten my refund check and had already paid for my textbooks for school so I had money left over to pay for the program. I took the program for three weekends and got my TEFL/TESOL certification. I graduated from college in 2014 and moved back home. At first I was really trying to find a job in my degree but had no luck and then I just started to apply for for any kind of job because I was feeling depressed and stressed out about not having a job or money and it was stressful on my mom so at the end of 2015, I decided to get in touch with recruiters provided by job advisors through my TEFL program. They would send my resume to recruiters in Japan, Taiwan, and Thailand. I would be doing several Skype interviews over the next few months just to be disappointed and so I decided to try and find recruiters in China and have my resume sent to them. One of the jobs I had interviewed with was for a university in a city that I had never heard of called Chengde in Hebei Province. Right after my interview with a teacher from the school I got a message saying that I got the job and the rest is history. Nearly 5 years later, I have no regrets except that I didn't start sooner. It was scary I'll admit because I had never been this far away from home and it was my first time ever getting on an airplane but I'm so glad I took the chance.

[@thatgenxlife800]

Follow your gut. God is speaking to you. I attest that you have to sometimes make decisions that may seem reckless at the time, but they're setting you up for something greater. I'm a lot older now, but when I was young I never questioned the choices that I made. And in the end, they turned out to be right.

[@corinnedorsey9802]

Just thought I’d drop by and say I subbed, glad I came across your channel! Hoping I can make it back to Paris next year!💗

[@TiffanieDavis]

Thank you! 💕

[@herydehaan3720]

At 21 I went to work in Abu Dhabi without knowing where that is. Believe in your gut. If it doesn't feel right, it ain't right. Also I admire the fact that you live on your own. This how you learn more about yourself. My hat's off to you. Well done. BTW I'm 60

[@maellelabelle4742]

Oof taking my chances in January 2021 to go to turkey then from Turkey to Paris to chase my dream as a fashion designer. Wish me luck! I also do speak fluent french :)

[@shalomitapalomita]

[@TiffanieDavis]

mdshalom Thank you babe!!! Love you more 💕

[@KiryaOni]

Wow I’ve watched a few of your videos and was like “why do I feel a strange connection/familiarity to her?” And then you said you went to Howard! HU!! We love a Howard woman❤️💙

[@TiffanieDavis]

Ahh yassss! Hey bison fam! ❤️💙

[@jeanniehernandez6405]

Love your stories girl!! Amazing. Enjoy

[@MarinaRishelle]

Just found your channel. Girl, you're gonna go so far! Happy to subscribe and can't wait to see more. ❤

[@TiffanieDavis]

Thank you so much!

[@24warne]

Hey Tiffanie! Just found your youtube channel -- you're incredible! I'm wondering how you were able to attend a university in France without knowing any French? Do you have any videos that talk about the language barriers? Thanks!

[@_raya_sunshine]

Thanks for sharing your story Tiff! Is the framework you used something you’ve created? (The Dream, The Voice, The Test) Curious to hear more P.s. I feel like I also manifested a similar dream without realizing it - When I was in middle school I remember thinking that when I “grow up” I’d like to move to a new city every couple years. So far I’ve been in NYC, London, Shanghai, and now Auckland.

[@TiffanieDavis]

Hey there! Yes I created the framework - just gave titles to certain areas of my life and voila! & That’s super cool thanks for sharing - our thoughts have incredible manifesting abilities! 🙌🏾

[@karenmarden9739]

I just came across you videos. You are so awesome and positive. I wish you the best. Oh yeah I hit the subscribe button😎

[@TiffanieDavis]

Ayye! Thank you!

[@worklaughplay]

You’re an absolute inspiration. 💗

[@TiffanieDavis]

Thank you! x

[@honestkai6618]

Loved this video & I'm excited to watch the rest of your videos! I just graduated from Harvard with a bachelors degree in History but I came here as an international student (from the U.K.) and now I'm figuring out what to do next!

[@sloanna9088]

Your voice's quite clearly. I can heard all. I like these videos like that. Because I'm caring about Paris. My dream is oversea to Paris to see Eiffel tower and more. I'm really into love Now I'm a high school student. A final student and next year I have to pass the biggest exam in my country. I'm super nervous. Under pressure Anyway, I also happy when I watch your videos. Love ya!!!

[@tailoredbytaylor9854]

Wow, I've been looking for a black KZbin to follow and you showed up! Your energy is amazing. Cant wait to learn more about your story.

[@TiffanieDavis]

Thank you so much!

[@sarahrr12345]

No way!! Came across your videos and was interested because my aunt moved to Paris when she was in her 20s and now she’s been there for over 30years. And then you say you went to Howard😍#HU17😏

[@TiffanieDavis]

Ahh 30 years that's amazing! YESSS HU '12!! Hayyy bison fam :)! x

[@speshul7525]

You beautiful nubian. Love yoyr videos. I always say change is good. It expands your view of the world. You do things that are dependent on you. It is so different than working in a company. You are getting it

[@barbarageddes9390]

Awesome video - just found you today and I am sure it is the universe guiding me in a way....wonderful story of manifestation. I can't wait to watch more!

[@TiffanieDavis]

Thank you! Yes girl, the universe is always guiding and watching. More to come! x

[@gretchenking5952]

This is a very inspiring story. Thank you for sharing. I'm a new subscriber to your channel so trying to binge watch all of your blogs. I studied abroad in Italy and loved living in Europe. May I ask, what type of work do you do now in Paris?

[@TiffanieDavis]

Gretchen King Thanks so much and it’s great to have you as a part of my community!! Very cool that you studied abroad in Italy, hands down one of my favorite places on earth 🙌🏾. I have a video going up today in a few hours that talks about my work/life situation in Paris!! Stay tuned!! xx

[@Fleur2544]

I followed my gut, moved to the US (who would move to the US right?), it was great for my profession but it has been extremely hard for immigration and survival. I live in DC, know Howard campus and I am very happy for you. I do miss France.

[@xochitlpv8849]

The power of manifestation is real! What a great story. I've manifested many things and situations in my life, some amazing and some scary. My favorite would be my 2 daughters and going to a Coldplay concert in the US (I lived in Mexico at the time I decided on it). I also inadvertently manifested having our house burn down on my quest for minimalism. Yep...manifesting is so powerful! My suggestion is to focus on the end result/outcome and be precise about what you want!

[@TiffanieDavis]

Wow!! And yes manifestation is so powerful, so crazy now thoughts can transform into actual things/situations. Thanks for sharing!
