IN BED WITH NICOLAS | I have some questions to answer!

[@rosyp4389]

You & Nathan are brothers. What a great friendship. That's rare nowadays.

[@dragonfly9209]

Ahhh....a man after my own heart! A rainy, gray morning, a luxurious, cozy bed shared with a beloved pet companion---can it get any better than that?

[@LeilaSoleil]

nope. It absolutely cannot.

[@lyndabond1443]

I’m a Christian and I love Nicholas ❤. My brother who passed away was gay as well as being my best friend. Why do people say nasty thing’s? Cozy video Nicholas and thank you for the chat. I adore Paris, it’s magical 🎉

[@LaDivinaLover]

Genuine question: why do Christians feel the need to alert everyone to the fact they’re Christian before they say something nice? Was that modifier really necessary? It’s kind of like saying “in spite of the way you are I still deign to like you”. I promise you it never comes across as generous but patronizing.

[@margarethall4559]

Because they are sad and unhappy with their own lives. Look at Nick and Nathan, living their best lives.

The doggies 🐕 are simply scrumptious and so fortunate . The three of you look so relaxed , warm , and cozy .

[@ragingrah3789]

I appreciate that you don’t address the terrible things going on in the world. I can watch the news for that. I do enjoy the calm, beautiful subjects you cover whether it’s home decor, a recipe, or an historic building. I usually listen to each installment more than once!

[@mireillewilson5911]

I so appreciate the fact that you don't talk about all the craziness. Your channel is a place of refuge for me. A place to be happy and think of all the beautiful things in life. I can watch the news if I want the craziness 😂

[@haute03]

I totally agree. 💜

[@veram8547]

I agree as well. Look forward to your videos.

[@HGCUPCAKES]

Never watch the news. NEVER.

So nice that Sophie and Peggy were willing to share their bed with you Nicolas! 😊💞 Please give us a tour of Chatsworth House and Paris some day.

[@TheDorianGray]

Aah, Nicolas, Grand Duchess of Edinburgh, luxuriating in a glamorous bed somewhere in Scotlandia, sipping tea, and answering tantalizing questions about living the eleganza life. I did enjoy your perspective on living in a world full of problems and strife. It was very wise. Beauty AND Brains.😉

[@gregpendrey6711]

Very funny. He is a boy. He might be in touch with the feminine, however, if he hasn't referred to his title who are we to act like bullies and attach a nickname to Nickolas? Who are we? I mean he hasn't blocked you. Maybe, respectfully ask if he wants you, my friend , to peg and pigeonhole him. Have a nice day.

When you spoke about not talking about the horrible things going on in the world and letting people take a break and come to your channel…..let me tell you.. that’s what brought me here!!! You are a light in dark times and your channel is inspirational and we need it. So thank you for that wonderful thoughtful response to that Q❤

[@salmewoodington9986]

This is one of the most enjoyable episodes in your vlog, Nicolas. I appreciate your honesty, spirituality, calmness and creativity. Thank you for sharing your ideas and thoughts. Best wishes for your upcoming podcast.

[@judymohre1430]

Yes, I come to your channel to escape the insanity of the world at this time. Your calmness, your love of nature, and gorgeous homes and their interiors, makes your channel so refreshing. Also, your philosophy regarding life in general is perfect.

[@BeverleySharp-c6h]

Dear Nicolas you bring me peace and calm every time I feel the need to be tranquil. I could listen to you for hours and you take all my stresses away. You are a charming young man with a beautiful soul. Really looking forward to the podcast ❤ thank you for another beautiful video xx❤

[@Grannynan]

I am so excited to see your upcoming podcast! And thanks for clearing the air about Nathan. He seems delightful, but I agree that one can be friends without being sexual. All my life I have enjoyed friendships with men, although I am a straight woman. Friends are friends, regardless of gender, orientation, etc. But it is helpful to have a partner who is secure in the relationship, and not prone to jealousy. I love your channel!

[@anasofialulo7808]

La vida se hizo para vivirla en amor,en paz y FELICIDAD,también hay sacrificios,renuncias y dificultades...cómo la sal,es importante saber reconocer lo dulce,a partir de conocer lo amargo...y servir a otros...aveces sin recibir agradecimiento,reconocimiento... porqué quien no aporta a los demás..?... qué sentido tiene su vida...🌷🌿🦋💮🌿

[@priscilla2152]

I thought at first you had redecorated your bedroom, I love it when you take us to different places. Wise man that you are, there is no sense worrying about the future or what is going on in the world now. It about the people we have in our lives, the beauty of things and what we make of it. I'll be looking foward to your guest bedroom makeover. Stay well and thank you to Nathan for taking along when he works.

[@angelfire2085]

Nicolas, lovely Q and A, lovely video as always! I just want to say that your videos have been my oasis in the life thats filled with stresses and all the troubles that go with our lives. some of the things in life are out of our control and all we can do is sit back let it correct itself... but it does leave a trail of sadness and anxiety. your videos are the only videos that bring a sense of calm and peace to my heart, and also inspire me with many ideas to enhance my life even in the smallest of ways. thank you so much for creating this channel, and kudos for keeping all the politics out of this channel so some of us can come on this and enjoy the peace! I love your life, how you live each day with so much love and peace, and I wish you all the best for the future!! :)

[@marionandrews176]

Never say never, Nicholas! Life can be difficult, but sometimes it delivers the most beautiful gifts.

[@forestfields]

Ahhh, Chatsworth House. I spent many weekends there in my youth. My boyfriend had an MG Midget convertible, and we would drive over on nice days and wander around the beautiful grounds. In the week, I went back to my real life, working for Midland Bank. Such fond memories.

[@deborahhuckaby4623]

Hi Nicholas. It was adorable how the babies were all snuggled sleeping. Sophie made sure she was closest to you. Lol. It's just crazy the sizes of the homes people have lived in. I think the most majestic estate here in the US is the Biltmore Estate in North Carolina. I've been there many times. Wonderful video, and thanks for sharing.

[@michellew8118]

I love how the dogs are enjoying themselves 🐾🐾

[@carolynthompson6518]

Thoroughly loved this video. I am so grateful that you get invited by Nathan on his photoshoots and we get the privilege of seeing some beautiful Hotels. It must be a win win for these places to have them shown not only by Nathan but on your channel also ❤

Hello Nicolas! Way to go for a relaxing (luxury) atmosphere to do a Q&A!! Even Sophie and Peggy seem to say let's indulge in this elegance too!LoL! The tapestry over the bed definitely invited "nesting" and enjoying some tea! I know your collaboration with Nathan to launch a podcast will be a success! Enjoyed the Q&A and as always you gave some sound advice and great decorating tips. Hugs!

[@arell56]

Well, that was so much fun! I enjoyed this episode immensely. I felt like I was in the room at the edge of the bed, just talking.

Remember when you said, young people put pressure on themselves and should not do this. We all have many purposes in life and your life is now not out there somewhere. Each one of us are special and already amazing we are unique like snow flakes...Sending you love, peace, sunshine, prayers always.

I like the thought of your channel being a respite from your busy life. I really think you have succeeded. That is one of the reasons I watch.

I have always loved floor plans. As a kid I collected them and created my own. I remodeled my own home’s floor plans as an adult and helped my parents reconfigure their layout when they built their retirement house.

I appreciate that your channel is free of political viewpoints and the daily News.... It's like a beautiful respite....thanks so much.

[@barbarajones9111]

It's not strange at all, I'm 72, and back in the seventies, I quite often shared a bed with my best friend, both of us being female, I've also shared a bed with a close male friend in my younger day's, with no romance or sex, when out partying, and all crashing at someone's place, you don't think twice about it, it was quite normal 😀

[@darlenechandler2403]

I am female and travel with both male and female best friends, but we always get a room with. TWO double beds. I have never slept in the same bed with my best friends, perhaps that’s just me and my comfort level. And I do not have siblings, so never had the experience either with them. I sleep perfectly in my own bed.

[@champaghosal5754]

It indeed is a place of refuge from the storm going on. Your calming voice, the peace that you bring with your words, does wonders for a ravaged soul

[@danielintheantipodes6741]

During World War II, the UK government authorised the manufacture of lipsticks. And classical music concerts. They were deemed to be essentials. Likewise, I like that there is no politic element on this channel. I like to escape from life’s realities in several places. One of them is here. Thank you for the video.

[@judithropata2269]

You are a very distinctive man of our times Nicolas - everything about you to love & nothing to dislike - what a soul you are - question!! - would we receive your Podcasts here in Queensland?? - so enjoy the moments you share with us all - you always & I mean always lift our spirits - much love.

I always felt that you and Nathan are best friends and "kindred spirits" sharing so much in common. This is one of the great pleasures in life; to bond emotionally and spiritually with other people. Looking forward to your upcoming videos on redecorating your bedroom and guestroom. Stay true to yourself and your goals, Robert.

[@wgbltd]

I first visited Chatsworth in 1970 and have returned many times. There was a boxwood garden at the front of the main block which when viewed from the upper floors the shape or pattern of the boxwood was clipped into the floor plan of Chiswick House (another family home).

The house he said he'd like to live in, is that also the house that was used during an episode of Keeping Up Appearances. It looks so much like, and that was a great episode. Well, they were all great episodes. Haha

[@marilynthomson9564]

Thank you again for another informative and lovely video!

[@KurtWhitehead-s1x]

Nicolas, I agree with you. It seems that you and I have lived similar lives. Even as an American, I visited Chatsworth (several times). I have friends who live in the Peak district. Pre-covid, I spent a month each yr in France, often Paris. I've been there 15+ times. Not a lot for someone in Europe. Love the comment about embracing a dark space. I live in 190 yr old house, the entrance hall is 4 x 15 meters, 3.6 meters high. Rooms open from it but there's only doors with sidelights at each end. It is painted dark forest green. All the woodwork is white. When built, the entrance wasn't intended to welcome; it was intended to impress (intimidate?). I decided not to brighten it up. I just accepted as is and live with it.

[@luv2learn995]

You have been very successful in creating a safe, comfortable and cozy space. Thank you for that.

Love your chats and your honesty....that is what is going to constantly grow this channel and any other platform you work on, etc. Thanks again for another great video!

[@JLgG2454]

Castle Howard would be my preference; probably because of Brideshead Revisited series which was produced when I was about your age, but also because it feels a bit more intimate than Chatsworth.

Really nice Q and A session from a beautiful bed. Will we ever get to see your boyfriend? I am fascinated by the fact you shared with us your new year's dreams a couple of years ago when you said you wanted to find a relationship that year and Boom, you did. I'm very happy for you.

[@Annie-qu9ik]

Hi from Annie nice to hear you answering some questions, people can get rather nosely can't they at times. That four poster bed looks great and the two dogs have it made there they look so cute. Yes there is a fine line between comfort and style or fashion etc. I think comfort is the most important of all. I have learnt that over the years not that many victors come here These days but years ago they did and I used to think style first but now I thin comfort is first. With dar spaces I naturally want to brighten them up a bit florals and lights are easy to do floor and wall colors are also important. What you said is live each day for itself stay in the moment is best advice for us all.

[@maryryan]

Beautiful video Nicolas ❤.... So natural and easy going.... Ah!! And the two pups are so cute 😍.... A relaxing vlog.....👌

[@romulus4395]

Isn't it great after you get out of bed for the day, and you make the bed - yes every day - and the room just feels put together.

[@mskulagal]

Nicholas, I so enjoy listening to you talk and describe how to have a most luxurious life. My husband and I lived in London for eight years and living there instilled a bit of what you are talking about. Having tea at Brown’s Hotel, visiting some of the great English houses and National Trust gardens, shopping in London, staying in beautiful hotels and country houses, taking a black cab occasionally - I could go on and on. We miss London very much and hope to return one day. We occasionally have a tea party, just the two of us, and reminisce of the lovely times in England. Love the doggies! Congrats to Nathan! I have a Shih Tzu who sleeps on our bed. Can’t wait for your podcast! All the best, Mandy from Tucson, AZ🌵

[@PepperPotPavilion]

I adored this video! It was full of excellent content, for example, I had been wondering about ceramic vs. silver teapots and thus was thrilled that a viewer posted the question regarding your preference. The Master Class regarding Chatsworth House was super. What I enjoyed the most was that it was all delivered from a cozy bed. It felt as though you had invited us all to the best slumber party ever.

[@patriciaf4783]

Nicolas, The reason i follow you, faithfully, is that I always feel good after each of your videos ! Your mentality, your tastes, your Education, suit me very well ❣️Thank you dear Nicolas ✨💞😘 🙏

[@agabert7318]

Greetings Nicolas! Thank you for your optimism. I must agree that a safe space or sanctuary is so important in one's life. I was able to sneak off to the city to see friends on Friday. Lunch with an old friend that I hadn't reached out to since COVID; and a Boys Night Out/Meal with College Friends that was so restorative. Easter is next weekend and I'm hoping to share a meal with my Brother's Family; we haven't made time for a family meal for over two years, so it would be nice to rectify that. Making time for relationships is so important. Looking forward to your podcast! ❤F&A

Chatsworth is amazing but the true jewel are the gardens. The Emperor's Fountain is not to be missed. Sadly, I believe the Cascade is closed for restoration.

[@ehpeachylove]

I just watch a program on KZbin on Chatsworth House and it is a stunning home. The most current resident spoke about his parents and past family, the privilege it is to have the public con in and share in views of this magnificent home. It is as beautiful outside as it is inside with gorgeous furnishings and artworks. I would love to see it in person but that will not be possible now . Enjoyable podcast Nicolas.

I live very close to Chatsworth, and visit often. It’s probably the best stately home in the UK - a true jewel.

[@sadieizzie]

Speaking of Chatsworth, if you get a chance look up the photos of Deborah (Debo) Cavendish's funeral. It was so charming as her coffin was wicker draped in flowers and the people who attended respectively lined the roads leading to and away from Chatsworth. Even her final home on the grounds of Chatsworth following her move was so sweet as were her gardens.

[@JeannieS59]

Nicolas!!! You are reading my mind….. soooo excited about the podcast. Love it!!! I think it is going to be an interesting chat as always. Apart from the topics you have mention would there be any tips on photography especially when capturing periodical houses. I really adore the sets of photos made and find them very unique - classy, deep and dark yet spectacular. Those houses are usually very dark and tips on how to take a perfect photo in those conditions, position….extra tips…. In addition I would love to see sth old sth new- you do dinners, lunches….tea party….what would be your extravagant breakfast set up to impress. You have hosted in many beautiful hotels, what tips…or ideas would you have for a splendid breakfast feast for a special guest… looking forward to watch your next vlog. Ps 1st question…I used to stop with my female friends and noticed if it is more then once there is always thst question. So despite if it is a man and a man or a woman and a woman….or a man and a woman, you will always trigger in heads of others The question… I guess it is called curiosity xx
