Our First Day In Paris + Apartment Tour! 🇫🇷✈️| Vlog No. 1

[@dianachamomile]

Hey loves! Just to clarify, my lil rant at the end about what happened that night isn't to say parisians in general were all rude to me. It was just that one off experience that evening. I would say everyone was mostly neutral. I also met some really lovely and warm people which truly made the experience great for me! Please don't feel sorry for what happened to us or feel like you have to be ashamed for what they've done (if you're from Paris) and I mean this in the best way possible! 😹 I wanted to mention the story so that no one else goes through this unfortunate situation and maybe avoids the louvre's food court restrooms during closing hours lolol 💖 thanks so much for watching and enjoying the video!! ʕ•ᴥ•ʔ

[@Evilin0861]

dianachamomile pickpockets are everywhere. However, I felt safer in Spain than in France. Perhaps, it was because of the language. It was very difficult to find Parisian who speak English. Young people were friendlier than older people. Going back to the pickpockets.. my hubby and I blended better in Spain. We are used to the food, the culture and it just felt like home. Worst scenario, I could use my foul language skills if need be. Lol!! Have some scary stories about being followed in Paris 2x. Be safe with Roger. Enjoy! Traveling is fun

[@josephangelique5697]

So sorry for you 😢 i am french🇫🇷 i wish the rest of your trip was good 😊 I really wish i could meet you wen you were there but unfortunally or didn’t happen. On 2020 i would like to go New York if i am lucky i will see your there 😊 Your video are very Nice and you are so cute and inspiring 🥰. Sorry for my english 😊

[@paula7450]

Report this guy! Seriously! "Go back to your country?" How dare he!

[@missabsentminded]

I'm sorry that this misadventure happened to you, people from the RATP (the metro service guys) can be really rude, to everyone, tourist or locals (everyone in Paris, me included, has had some kind of issue with them). They always assume the worst out of people; I guess this is not an easy job but that doesn't excuse their behavior... I'm really sad and sorry this happened to you! I hope you still enjoyed the rest of your trip :)

[@Marshmallow_Embers]

So she briefly mentioned this, but you can't get out of the underground unless you have the right ticket. What she didnt mention is its impossible to get another ticket once you get trapped in the station. They don't have ticket machines, attendants or security. If you end up in this situation, the only way out is through the handicapped exit. Me and my parents got trapped in the Paris metro for about an hour because we had the wrong ticket. I just this spares someone the headache.

I'm so sorry you had such a bad experience with the metro. Those metro employees are awful with everyone but he definitely crossed a line saying you should go back to your country

[@dianachamomile]

ss9329 yes I agree! I just genuinely wanted to get the guy to understand that we weren't trying to break laws but that we shouldn't have been incriminated for a mistake that a teller made. just hoping it helps someone else out there!

[@ss9329]

@@dianachamomile I hope it does. I'm honestly sceptical whether you actually had to have your photo on it or not. That navigo card thing is fairly new so the rules might still be a bit blurry. The problem is that the metro employees have to reach a fine quotas to keep their job (this is an actual requirement but it's not official). Technically they are required to give a certain amount of fines per day so I guess they are taking advantage of the blurriness that comes with the new card system and unfortunately you were a victim of it.

[@dianachamomile]

ss9329 that is really unfortunate :/ there were so many people there that were upset.. and on the next day they were still at that same spot! Lucky for us, we managed to cut the photos with a knife and stuck them on the cards. 😭

Iceland is awesome and can be really cheap too. Try to get a long layover (iceland is known as layover central and they promote it) to a place in Europe and the cost will be low. I did London, with an 8-hour layover in iceland for about $300 in May. It was amazing! it can be tricky but it's doable and the people are really nice. I did this trip solo, the airport staff, the other travelers I met at the Blue Lagoon were all so sweet. The people in London were also pretty kind and way more chill than Paris, definitely a cool place for you and roger to check out.

[@priscillaishere]

ahhhh. my boyfriend and I had a similar experience in Paris while using the bathroom at a restaurant we were at. My boyfriend used the bathroom in the restaurant and our server just started yelling at us in French (we don't speak French) and was saying RUDE RUDE RUDE in English and we were so confused as to what we did wrong. It was SO AWKWARD because we were at a restaurant. I eventually just put money on the table for what we ordered and walked out and the server FOLLOWED us yelling in French. we still don't know why he yelled at us. haha we kinda laugh about it now but at the time we were so shook up by it.

[@sylviam.942]

Hi Diana, I’m so happy for you and Roger for going after your dreams. I really think that you didn’t get scammed by the Paris Metro, those who made it hard for you and asked you for more money where actually scammers from the street. Like there are scammers in NY. And they do that for a living and esp choose people who do not speak or understand the language, so it adds to the confusion etc. Anyways I’m so sorry for you, but hope you loved Paris. I lived there for over a year and simply loved it. Au revoir! 💌

[@cmlandresc]

Normally the bathrooms in the Carrousel du Louvre (where you were) close at the same time as the shops, and when they're open you have to pay 2 euro or something like that to use them. I think that's probably why the man was yelling. It's not at all how it is in the US with bathrooms being open / public for anyone to use. I've only just gotten used to it after living here for a few years. ALSO the photo thing for the metro is so annoying :( it happened to my mom too RIGHT after arriving to Paris from the airport, she hadn't even had the time to find one of the photobooths! Ugh lol

[@stace_d]

I appreciate the honesty in this vlog. Paris gets over romanticized, I believe. Really, it's a big city like many others with good and bad. When I was there 2 years ago, I used the paper metro tickets but stupidly had multiple ones in my pocket and got yelled at when the transit police were doing random checks and I couldn't figure which ticket was my current one fast enough.. Several things about Paris turned me off actually, but I'm giving it another try this summer. I know the magic has to be in there, I just didn't feel it on my first visit

[@alexasunshine83]

YEEEEEEEES ! 🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻

[@ShannonQT85]

Wow this was eye opening because I've only visited Paris once but it was nearly 11 years ago and it sounds like a lot has changed especially when it comes to the metro system. We didn't have to have a photo card. We just bought our tickets similar to the subway ticket booths in nyc. The only thing that made it challenging was that not every stop had those booths to get the tickets and we couldn't figure it out and didn't until our 2nd day there. Also it was quite hard for us to figure out how to get tickets to go to Versailles. We thought we maybe finally figured it out and asked some people working a booth who thankfully kindly confirmed we did get the right tickets. I also had a belt bag like you and it made me feel my belongings were safe even if it was a pain to always have (I put the strap through my belt loops to make sure it was extra safe). I read about the scammers before going so i kind of had an idea of what to expect and what to look for and avoid. Overall though I heard so many people talk about Parisians not being nice especially to Americans, but I personally was pleasantly surprised how kind people were. I tried to always ask in French if they spoke English which they always appreciated and did my best to order things in French as best I could. I still remember next to Angelina's we had lunch at a restaurant and the waiter was SO nice, funny, and curious about where we were from. We enjoyed him so much we went back there again the next day. I think like any place people will vary so we can't entirely judge a place based on a few bad experiences but it definitely does damper spirits so I'm sorry you had such a mean man yell at you like that. Honestly no matter what or where....men should never yell at a woman. It's disgusting. Seems like I have a lot of reading to do to re-educate myself about Paris before returning hopefully in the next year or 2. If you ever plan to go to Rome feel free to message me and I can give you a recommendation for the cutest B&B literally across the street from the Vatican. The lady is so nice who owns it and they bring you a little breakfast cart each morning and they're just so pleasant and welcoming so if you ever go there....definitely recommend staying there and very affordable as well. And there's no metro in Rome haha :)

I was also charged with a ‘violation’ while on the EuroRail in France and the lady showed NO MERCY and was really rude about it even though we had no idea what the rules were. I paid a lot of euros just so they wouldn’t kick us off the train. It was very frustrating! They can be mean and will not give you a break. Ignorance will cost you a lot of $$$. Make sure you know all the rules and follow them. I also went to Spain and Italy on that trip and everyone was much more pleasant and forgiving.

This video gives me so many emotions!! I went to Paris for the second time in December 2017 and it was the most magical experience. The whole aesthetic, the food, the small boutiques... Such a weird contrast with what I experienced with the people, too. I had left my toothbrush at home and got a new one in a nightshop close to my hostel. The male owners of the store named me all kinds of things and I made me feel horrible. I also got pickpocketed during my last day! In the freaking Starbucks of all places!! Someone just grabbed my wallet from the counter and ran away. :( So I totally get where you are coming from. I've seen many European cities so far but none of them are quite like Paris. Looking forward to seeing more videos of your travels! ❤️

Parisians themselves really ruined the experience of Paris for me. I thought Paris was absolutely beautiful and thought the food tasted amazing. I, unfortunately, was pickpocketed on my very last day there, was also scammed by the Metro, and really wasn’t treated very kindly by anyone that I’d encountered. It’s really a shame that they are so unkind to tourists. I’m glad that you otherwise are having a good time! Paris really is breathtaking.

[@dianachamomile]

Marie Lippert yeah I've heard this from many friends! I tried to take Paris at face value and really just appreciate everything else about it.. it truly is disappointing that a few people treat tourists with a cold front considering the city was pretty much made to be loved and enjoyed by many. I think it's a common occurence in cities though! Regardless, I hope to go back to France! (*˘︶˘*).｡.:*♡ Probably somewhere a little deeper within the country

Omg I'm so ashamed by French people's behaviour sometimes (I'm french) 😩 I'm really sorry your travel in this amazing city was a bit disappointing about parisians. What get me crazy is about the transport in France, they always find a problem, checking useless information you never had been informed to add on your card or sth just to make you pay!

That looks like an espresso pot that you use on the stove- primulaproducts.com/product/lifestyle/the-home-barista/aluminum-stovetop-espresso-coffee-maker-6-cup/. I had one a long time ago

[@abbyk6685]

The sculpture things on the shelves are gourds

I want to study abroad but I'm scared

[@LineHoude]

I don't get why people at the Metro did not tell you that you need a picture on your card ?

[@dianachamomile]

Line Houde animation beats me ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ we had gotten them at the airport and they refused to take our passports which we heard they're supposed to scan and print on to the passes.

[@LineHoude]

@@dianachamomile oh well when I stayed a week in Paris I was told to take a picture in a photobooth in order to get my metro pass. Anyway so sorry to ear they where so rude. By the way i'm french Canadien. Your vlog was nostalgic to me, Paris is a wonderful city for film photography. I love Polaroid. I have a big Polaroid collection that I Will share soon, Paris en Polaroid. Have a great evening

[@banbasafro]

awww is that alice munro i see! love her!

[@kwood7582]

Macarons are famous in Paris but they actually come from Italy and were brought over in the 17th century I think

[@nadiadern]

I went to Europe around 3 months ago and I could go to Paris, I really loved the city, but people weren’t so kind with my boyfriend and I cause we spoke in English and sometimes in Spanish. At the Louvre some guards told me some things in a very bad way that I didn’t get.

[@dianachamomile]

Nadia Fernández yeah it was such an unfortunate experience in that sense.. it's not like we can help it 😩 roger and i spoke spanish for the most part to avoid getting any attention.. i think if i ever stay in france again, it'll definitely be outside of paris. we were at least lucky to have met subscribers there that offered us kindness and warmth 💖

[@sabrinap3356]

My sister and I were treated the same. Lucky it's a beautiful place. Have fun girl 💖

[@FashAveGirl]

@@dianachamomile when I missed my flight we had to stay another night near the airport and we weren't treated horribly but we were definitely treated better in paris and my dad and I are POC's. idk I went two years ago so things seem to have changed smh

[@dianachamomile]

UnicornKeo I don't think it's a racial thing but more of nationality? Idk i spoke to a cafe owner during my time there and she told me they actually prefer latin people over Americans. I mean these are all generalizations but if she says it, it must mean something 😹 regardless, this situation was the worst I had on my entire trip and every other day was a breeze.

[@pppotatoes]

dianachamomile I would agree with this after having lived in both the US and Europe! the concept of race is very different and people definitely do focus less on your perceived ethnicity and more on nationality

[@susanmelero-tripp4804]

how did you refuse to pay that photo card. I have never been to Paris before.

[@mayaella5865]

i love how you edit your videos!

[@dianachamomile]

Maya Ella thanks so much maya! ~(˘▾˘~)

[@katem7370]

The exact same thing happened to me when i first moved to Paris! It's so unfortunate because the RATP police are always lurking around the touristy stations

[@FlipperTea]

I was coming out of the Louvre and a guy grabbed my hand and started tying a bracelet to my wrist, and even tho I tried to push him off he kept insisting I should pay him for the bracelet. It was really traumatising, I was 15.

[@asiakimberly9755]

I'm a bit confused who scammed you? those that sold you the card or those that fined you?

[@dianachamomile]

Asia Kimberly no one scammed me- i definitely felt scammed because tourists are sold these tickets at airports but not told they need their pictures on the passes and then are fined. it feels like a scam in a sense because you don't have a choice or chance to defend yourself for someone who obviously didn't do their job properly. I have french subscribers who don't even know about this obscure law they're attempting to enforce.

[@asiakimberly9755]

@@dianachamomile oh I see. nah you definitely got scammed by the government. As someone who takes public transportation everywhere, it's literally so frustrating to me that there's such a huge fine for these things. People who take public transportation and do not pay for it are the folks that most likely can't afford it in the first place. Sorry that this happened to you :/ and also thanks for clarifying!

[@FashAveGirl]

I loved Paris, so happy you're getting to experience it :-) It's life changing, idk i cant explain it but you definitely grow inside from traveling internationally and your views on the world and life evolve. The Louvre is HUGE, you need at least 2 days to really see everything. Also, the shopping is great there and everyone was actually really nice contrary to popular belief. I ubered a lot so i didn't take the metro, but I went during fashion week (accidentally). That was amazing to see in person, we even caught a show at the Louvre. I went to Lauderee too for the same reason ;-) Although it may be cold you went at a great time it doesn't seem like there are a lot of tourists around you guys so that's always good. My dad and I really enjoyed our time together there. I hope you all have a great time. I miss paris *tear Next time I'll definitely AirBNB the hotel rooms are tiny lol

[@kavitababla1814]

Wow great vid! BTW hope u dont mind me saying but you have beautiful eyes!👀😃

[@aliolieu]

hi, i’m late, i love u

[@susanma4899]

Okay I'm laughing that you don't know what a gourd is, or what an espresso pot is. Teach yourself to make some espresso on the stove top while you're on vacation. :)

[@tigerrocha9161]

they are called gourds and they aren't sculptures they are made by nature

[@pppotatoes]

not sure if anyone will even see this but another random thing to be on the lookout for in touristy parts of Paris is ANYONE collecting “signatures” or money on the street- don’t even stop to look at them! i once got ambushed by an otherwise harmless group of Romani women outside the Sacré Coeur who asked me to stop to speak with them and then literally surrounded me until I gave them money, in broad daylight in a super busy area!

[@Kitzelinos]

I have a Friend that went to Paris and people treated her badly 😩 Also, she told me people would insult and yelled to immigrants an that they are so rude to tourists.

[@emile-gaming2467]

Today is Tuesday November 26, and I don’t know if you are still in Paris ... but if you are: have a lunch or dinner at La Fumée ... very close to the Louvre and the Musée des Arts Décoratifs! Very authentic and cosy! Enjoy Paris, I live in Belgium, like 2 hours by train from Paris!
