Solo Trip to Paris

[@steffivankessel3716]

Niomi, I have been reading your reactions to some of the comments here and I love how graceful you are. It feels like quiet confidence: not feeling the need to argue and be right but also not being apologetic about living your life in a way that feels right to you. I feel like that is something we all need.✨️

[@rosieroxygirl]

So lovely to see the old niomi back in videos! X

[@RiaSmile25]

Dear Niomi, I am neither a fan nor a hater. I have been watching you on and off for 8-9 years. You have a bubbly, sweet and positive personality and this is a very likable trait of yours. I have seen the drama and the hate you get. 60% percent of it is just plain old negativity for anything and everything you do, but there is a percentage that is actually very constructive and in my opinion you should consider it. The thing is you avoid yo talk for deep matters that you actually have experience in like heartbreak. I assume you want to monetize your knowledge on this matter and capitalize from this. However, this is not what successful content creators usually do. What i mean by that is that you have to give something of deeper value, something you are good at, without monetary attachments, and then if people want to learn from you more then monetize it. You avoid talking for important events in your life and this makes your audience suspicious and detached. Another thing is that your newsletter is very pricey (especially in this economy, which shows that you are not relatable.. a basic salary in Greece is 800€/month, most people can't survive alone, let alone buy expensive newsletters and this a worldwide phenomenon) and you don't have any certificates etc so people can invest in you or even understand the price of your content. You have been inconsistent with your endeavours and in most jobs this is unprofessional. You are smart, you are fun, you are kind, but you have some privileges others don't, so you can't connect with your audience that well. I would suggest doing an analysis on your (real) demographic, and change route according to this. I wrote all this because i dont like this negativity (it's not normal and other youtubers dont get that much)and i feel that noone really has explained thoroughly what's up

[@alexiawagner2514]

Curious to know what Niomi thinks of this? Thank you for your constructive comment. Indeed we lost her for a long long long while.... she even blocked me for being honest and constructive like you but she blocked when in the past I could exchange with her... I am not sure about so many influencers, and I decided to stick to the very few I feel close to or/and inspired by... I am bored by the beauty content, etc... Therefore so pleased Niomi is herself again.

[@RiaSmile25]

@@alexiawagner2514 I am curious too, but at the end of the day we have so different perspectives of life, depending on the circumstances we are dealing with. She may want to have a group of people that consists mostly of middle to upper class, or hippies/new age people or she may want to have a wide spectrum of audience. But both can't happen. In marketing the most important thing is to know your target group. For years, the target group of Niomi was very vague. In a way, everyone could fit. It was chill. Nowadays there is no specific direction, but in some moments there are very specific messages coming from her. And the change is drastical from what it used to be. I remember Niomi being an elegant posh woman, with healthy lifestyle concerns and content. And suddenly she becomes claire michelle ( american KZbin girl with hippie/new age vibe, picked around 2016-2017, moved to Hawaii did all the woowoo stuff, their photos are literally the same from bali era niomi and hawaii era claire) and expects everyone to be positive and not be like "what?" Anyway, i only entertain this matter because i hate negativity for solvable matters and i think she doesn't get those stuff. I really do hope she and here team see those. I mean she has a MARKETING TEAM, i am one brain here without expertise and i can come up with suggestions

[@loislyons3724]

Loved this longer vlog, and all your thoughtful observations. You packed a lot in for just a quick stay. Your confidence to travel and dine alone is inspiring me to get out of my comfort zone more.❤

[@netll]

Would be nice to have another What I Eat In A Day video from you again. ❤

[@its_msk]

Really? That's so 2015. Theose videos grew very dull. People have evolved past that.

[@Dee-ck6vm]

I'm more impressed that she was filming at a restaurant and talked about the art for a good 10 mins than her going solo trip. That's another level of confidence for me 😂 go girl.

[@Elliecharlotte]

Nice video - lovely to see you vlogging like the old days, just doing things you want to do rather than only featuring gifted experiences 😊

[@elissaanntorres9123]

I’m obsessed with your content lately. Keep following the pasty that feels right, lady. ❤️ We’re here cheering you on and thank you for taking us on this adventure.

[@niomismart]

Thank you so much

[@laurendixon5136]

I love this kind of content! Definitely keen for more travel vlogs Niomi. I recently moved to London from NZ and this is making me excited to go back to Paris! The Eurostar is just magical. ❤️

[@niomismart]

Thank you!

[@matildesara788]

You look so happy 🤍 good to see you this way.

[@Forestwitch92]

It’s pretty cool that you can take of on a solo trip and you have the confidence to do that. A solo trip is on my bucket list!

[@shachiphene]

This felt so good to watch, these solo trips just experiencing the world on your own and giving yourself moments of joy are so good. They can be a bit lonely for sure, but they have also been so powerful and memorable and meaningful for me. So nice to see you doing them again for yourself too ♥️♥️

[@ellec8224]

More vlogs like this!!! This was so joyous 🥐.

[@niomismart]

Thank you!

[@sofluffyunicorn]

Would love a mandala video, so relaxing, love your vlogs from the very beginning

[@katrinasnow7548]

I dont understand people saying the 'old Niomi' is back, you are always so lovely and have consistently given off a positive, kind and warming energy throughout all the years, people grow and change no one will ever be the 'same' all their lives, embrace who you are and the journey of life, thankyou for showing me how beautiful it is to spend time alone, we dont do it enough, you are a beautiful person Niomi, you always have been and you always will be💛

[@niomismart]

Thank you for your kind words and support! I'm grateful to have inspired you to embrace spending time alone. Your encouragement means a lot to me. Sending love and positivity your way! ❤ Niomi

[@andreab637]

Dear Niomi☀️ Thank you for sharing. You‘re right, enjoy life with your own company. I love watching your blogs for many years 🥰 Kind regards from Switzerland 🇨🇭

[@secretstories]

Parisian girl here. I wouldn't say that L'Eclair de Genie is a tourist trap per se. Sure if you had went for the plain croissant that would have not been the best choice since every decent boulangerie has amazing butter croissants that are cheaper. But for the eclairs this is the best place to go if you don't want a traditional one! + if you ever want company in a Parisian wine bar : you have subscribers here ;)

[@danniriggs8326]

Wow this video ❤ I loved every second watching this. I am single too and love nothing more than going somewhere on my own, or with my dogs, taking my time, and experiencing new things. Especially when I am feeling great, it makes me feel even happier. ❤

[@madi2386]

Ahh you’ve made me excited to try travelling on my own! To be able to get lost in art and culture and not necessarily worry about pleasing anyone else!

[@Amia918]

Hi Niomi, glad to have another video to get cosy into!! Hope you are doing well! Your loyal follower of 10 years!

[@niomismart]

Wow thank you for being here all this time! Appreciate it!

[@susanbriggs3201]

You’ve inspired me to go on a solo trip soon 🎉🙏🏻. It’s very freeing to think about it 🤗. I enjoy how real you are and I appreciate how you share your journey with us 💕

[@niomismart]

Thank you for your support and encouragement. Wishing you the most amazing solo journey ahead! 💕🌟

[@imjoat7551]

I’ve just come back from 3 nights in Paris solo. I’d never been before so did all the usual touristy things . Seeing the Eiffel Tower in real life for the first time took my breath away. I used the metro to get around even at night and felt very safe walking around alone even at night :)

[@thebookseeker8880]

Its seems you got your second breath, your videos made the grade. So refreshing!

[@jojobrown2504]

I remember watching your videos when I was at university. You always give good vibes ✨ and yes romance yourself

[@robinc6746]

My family and I experienced London for the first time together in the fall of last year, and we took the Eurostar to Paris and spent four days in Paris. the difference between London’s fast paced busy widespread city compared to Paris, which seems so compact and intimate, and like a small town. Just a beautiful way to experience the city..

[@niomismart]

That's such a great insight and observation! I agree. Paris feels slow and more romantic. London is fast paced but more productive!

[@janetgorman3690]

I absolutely love aboriginal dot painting, the beautiful colors and the intricate detail is incredible, so many talented artists. This was such a wonderful vlog, I also love solo travel or even just heading out to lunch and maybe museum or art gallery wanders by myself....I just always have a book with me to read!

[@Anna070794]

Absolutely loved this vlog! 💖 it was so interesting to hear you speak about the exhibition and I felt like I was in Paris with you! Definitely inspired me to go on a solo trip of my own x

[@HannahSchiavone]

On the ‘Calm’ app there is a sleep story called a Rainy Day in Paris - this video reminds me of that ☔️😊💙

[@ems8435]

I was saving this video for a moment I needed a salve, the way you articulate your experience is so refreshing. This has reminded me to look further and fully embody experiences, remaining present in the delicious beauty that can be present in life, even in the most mundane things when you are patient. You share an incredible worldview thank you x

[@niomismart]

Thank you so much for your heartfelt message. I'm deeply touched to hear that my video resonated with you in such a meaningful way. Sending you warmth and positivity 🌟 Niomi

[@FreeElf25]

I bring my journal too when I’m feeling uncomfortable being alone at restaurants ❤

[@thebookbelle]

Niomi, I love how confident you are in this video (and as a fellow YT creator I'm in awe of you vlogging in a restaurant and just owning it - love it so much!). Feeling so inspired to do more solo dates like this! x

[@farzanamiah7737]

Cheapest way not to go Paris, just watch your video and pretend I’m there lol 😂😂😂 love your videos ❤❤

[@perrys8389]

Watching this was heaven.

[@dawncampbell9385]

This vlog was amazing Single travel, art, beautiful city, 10/10

[@SMtweet07]

I truly hope that anyone thinking of leaving a comment of critique takes the time to actually watch this vlog. It is beautiful. I absolutely love and admire the conversation after the Rothko exhibition. What a wonderfully intelligent and thoughtful segment - to share your musings post an art exhibition, particularly about Rothko given a lot of modern day viewers will perceive his work as being simplistic and of little contemporary value. Niomi you inspired me back when you did your solo trip to Cambridge and you’re inspiring me still now. Keep being you and please post more of your musings while you’re in London, while you travel and live your beautifully carved out life. You genuinely have a beautiful mind and thank you for choosing to share it. And all will do well to remember - not all those that wander are lost. ♥️

[@niomismart]

Thank you for sharing this, I appreciate it. x

[@VittoriaBow]

I completely adored this vlog! Niomi, you are just sunshine 🌞

[@niomismart]

Thank you!

[@melaniegardner9118]

Blast from the past. I love that she doesn't apologise for literally never working a day in her life.

[@niomismart]

Oh but I do - I just don't show the work side of my life! It often involves meetings with wealth managers and sensible investments - not particularly exciting but rewarding nonetheless.

[@Abigailrose109]

This video you're watching IS part of her work

[@TheAutumn1176]

Hello! Your LOVE purse is inspired by an artist from Philadelphia, PA (where I live in the states) who created the large, colorful LOVE structure. It’s iconic here ❤️ I have been watching your channel for years. It’s been wonderful seeing your spiritual growth!

[@ellen3296]

Traveling by train is such a nice way of transportation. I've traveled with the Eurostar a few times myself, but then from Amsterdam to London! I love being in London, and I'm always happy when I spot my first Pret A Manger :) I wish train journeys were cheaper though, especially as they are much better for the environment than planes. I hope that in a few years all of Europe will be accessible by fast and cheap trains! Love the video Niomi

[@danniriggs8326]

So you've inspired me to go to the Theatre on my own! I'm here and in doing it! ❤

[@rainbowssunshine9993]

Lovely video Niomi. Yes, enjoy your freedom. Your scarf matched the paintings! ☺️

[@niomismart]

I only noticed the scarf matched once I was in the exhibition! Such a funny coincidence x

[@78msdaisy]

Would love for you to talk about that's it's ok to say when things are wrong for you or that it's ok to talk about when things don't work out. I know so many people and myself that feel that they feel they can't be open about things that don't go well or we were wrong about something that we thought was right for us. Not sure if this makes sense but hope it does. I'm sure you'll empower people to travel solo.

[@nataliejoy3312]

Awww I LOVE THIS … “Romance yourself, date yourself, treat yourself…YEEES! This message speaks to me so much! I absolutely adore how positively radiant your energy is and it’s so inspiring to me to get out and about, reclaim my narrative as directed by me and “romanticise my own life and fall in love with myself again”! Thank you and sending out to the universe so much gratitude for such a positive inspiring message that l felt hit me in my soul, Sending you love and light! 🥰❤️

[@niomismart]

Thank you for your kind message!

[@alisonmwood]

I absolutely loved this video, really enjoyed seeing the exhibition and your joy in travelling. Thank you for sharing it with us.

[@jhna3812]

Hi Niomi, it is lovely to see you travel and do things that a lot of women do not dare to do because it takes us out of our zone of comfort to do those things on our own. Also, not sure if you knew but at 31:42 into your video we can see the Liberty Flame, commemorating the Princess Diana, near the Alma bridge 🕊️

[@dairarancane9053]

This was an amazing video, thank you for sharing your solo travel experience! 🤗 I completely agree that taking a solo trip is so, so special. I travel quite a bit on my own, but had never really had a true solo trip with the purpose to treat myself. A few years back I tried it for the first time - treated myself to a solo trip to Azores, Portugal and it was most magical.✨It's still one of my favourite travels🥰✈️ P.S. There is a museum in Mark Rothko's name here in Latvia that holds a lot of his artwork. It's really worth a visit

[@pamhan]

So happy to see a new solo travel! Also really got me curious of Rothko art, I saw here and there pics of his work and didn't think much of it but you really got me interested! Sending lots of love 💕

[@Gen45]

I found this very interesting! I love the art theme. All the best for this new phase, niomi ! X

[@apilune09]

I don't usually comment but I needed to say that I've been loving your content even more lately! You're glowing in this video, it's so lovely to see ☺

[@lilykhan3193]

Thank you so much for talking about solo travel. Have been wanting to visit places alone and good to know your tips and advice. Thanks niomi . Xx

[@niomismart]

You're so welcome, wishing you an exciting journey ahead with your solo travel!

[@littlestcountrylife]

Love solo travelling. You’re never disappointed or argue over where to have dinner 😂

[@mebeinghappy22]

i really miss this niomi!!! watching this gave me all sorts of boost and a reminder to pamper mysellf!!!

[@Nubianette]

We’re in the same club! It’s not about exclusivity, but being on the path of opening ourselves up to the positive aspects of life, while being aware of the negative. Caring for ourselves gives us energy to care and be open to others as well. Artists have the talent of expanding themselves and expressing emotion and energy. If you’re open to that, you can absorb-enjoy, or identify enough, that if it’s very dark, you need to push it away. People are so interesting! Yes, to the Bolt prices! I’m American, and I downloaded Bolt when I went to Portugal. Then, I found it was in France, and several countries in Africa. Enjoy!

[@niomismart]

Love this reflection! Thank you for sharing.

I found this vlog a transcending experieince in itself

[@juliette5798]

Merci beaucoup pour cette vidéo, c’était très agréable à regarder, et même sous la pluie tu es resplendissante 😊☀️

[@rethinkthatkat]

Loved this vlog! I spent several days in Paris solo a few years ago and loved visiting the Louis Vuitton foundation. It was such a highlight, and the fact that it's in the middle of a huge park made that day even more special.

[@summeroflove1992]

When I was 15, I went to a Mark Rothko exibition in Hamburg. To me it felt like you described. It was a very emotional and special experience. To this day, I never felt this with any other artist. To me his art also feels like color therapie.. And it has an emazing depht. I felt beeing sucked in to the art. Almost drowning in it (later peaces).

[@Ellarxo]

You make me want to go to Paris! What a lovely vlog, it seems so magical.

[@ameliaevans1752]

“Never a briefcase in Paris, or an umbrella. There’s a law”. You did Paris just as Audrey would want you to ❤

[@YayaBolender]

Forgive me if I do not see anything romantic in Paris, it’s where I come from and for me it was the city of work work work and rain rain rain. But yes, the food is excellent and you are right to be careful, Paris is not safe even for Parisians, not only for women, and the neighborhood where your hotel was is not that safe, it’s a “be careful” area, especially at night. Regarding Rothko, each person can read a different thing in it, you put on his art what you want to see and what you project of yourself. Personally, as an occasional artist myself, all what I see is : how did he do that? The colors at the front are elements among many others underneath, so many layers of colors giving a floating feeling. What was his technique? What brush? What medium? Thick? Thin? Dry? Diluted? Varnished? Not varnished? I’m passionate about painting techniques, I could spend hours observing and trying to guess what he did. Same thing with Klee. Beside that you say that not everyone can come to Paris for a night to see an exhibition organized by the Vuitton Foundation (if it hadn’t been Louis Vuitton Foundation would have you come?) because people have kids and can’t always be available. But not only for that, not all people have the means to pay for that, and chiefly most people are working and are not available just like that when they want. I was wondering what is your job exactly? After months in Bali, two days in Paris and then you go skiing. Do you ever have to work at a point? Who can live like that unless you have a super trust fund to support you? I could go to exhibitions in Paris, and alone, when I was still living in Paris, but I was going on my days off, sometimes with my kids. Today, I don’t have the time to go anywhere because I have to work, I am not complaining, I am glad to be productive and useful to the community and society. I’m just trying to understand what is your job exactly? You stopped your line of products, so what is your activity? How do you do to be on vacation all the time?

[@niomismart]

Thank you for sharing your experience - especially about the art work, that's fascinating hearing a differing perspective from an artist. Regarding the Louis Vuitton Foundation - I only found out the Rothko's were at this location because I was researching how and where I could view them in person, so yes I would've gone to visit the Rothko's regardless of the specific gallery. That wasn't relevant to me. I'm confused why this is even a question? I completely understand and respect your point about not all people being able to afford or take the time to visit Paris as I have. I feel grateful for my experiences every day. I do believe my message is about women feeling they can and should take themselves on dates in general - that could be to their local gallery or cinema, or their favourite restaurant. In answer to your extremely personal question about my financial situation - no I do not have a trust fund, I fund myself. It's sad that in todays day and age we still question young successful women. If I were a man taking a solo trip would you have asked the same question? I have been lucky enough to be hugely successful throughout my 20s and I have made some sensible and successful investments since I started earning my wealth in my early 20s - that's a decade ago. Yes, it has allowed me to travel to Bali. It also allows me to travel with friends. It allows me to hop on the Eurostar for a trip on my own for one night in Paris. And I am hugely proud of that achievement off my own back. I used to feel embarrassed about this and shy away from speaking about it - but now I feel proud that I can do that from my own finances rather than family or a partner. Not that there is anything wrong with that either by the way if that feels right for another person! My 30s have brought me a new found confidence and acceptance of self. So, I hope that answers your question.

[@YayaBolender]

@@niomismart Yes it does answer my questions, and I would have asked the same thing if you were a man. Regarding Vuitton, I was asking because I was wondering if the foundation was somehow a sponsor of your trip or not. I am interested in how people manage to do it financially because I moved here to the US alone with my younger son a while ago and I know how hard it is to make it alone. A lot of sun here, sometimes rain and it is work work work also. I am sure that how you are making it financially could interest a lot of young viewers watching your channel. There is nothing magic never, it’s always a lot of work and efforts, the young generation should know that, to be aware of what to expect if they want to succeed too.

[@niomismart]

@@YayaBolender No I have no affiliation to the LV Foundation, I paid for my ticket online. Thank you for sharing your experience of moving abroad. It is tough doing it alone and making a living at the same time. I send you love on your journey ahead and trust things will become easier for you. Maybe I have just been incredibly lucky, or a case of right place right time, or my work paid off. Thank you for your suggestion about sharing more of my financial journey, I will consider it. Also I must say lastly that I disagree with your last point. There is magic all around us. I don't mean to sound insensitive. Believing and trusting in magic provides one of the greatest gifts in life.

[@YayaBolender]

@@niomismart I know what you are talking about regarding the magic, manifesting works at the condition of helping it to go to the right direction. I am in a good place now, but it was not easy boum! Everything is happening without doing any effort. In French we say: help yourself and the sky will help you, it’s exactly that. Show the way and the sky will follow. Thank you for your answer regarding Vuitton, now we know.

To me it takes bravery to travel with people😂 Always prefered being on my own and I ve never been scared (I'm parisian ;)). As a matter of fact I have a friendly date where you got your croissant next saturday! Deffo gonna try the chocolate croissant😊😊🎉

[@payelchakraborty5522]

The fact that we as girls literally have to think before doing basic things like going somewhere at night or traveling alone is just so sad. The fact that we are always in a state of extra consciousness of the surroundings even while walking in the streets of our own city or in public transport is... all these things just to do regular everyday activities. Anyway I hope you are doing well Niomi, I have been following you for a very long time now and would like to say that you are an amazing human and deserve all the good things in life. ❤

[@Dee-ck6vm]

Even if i am not travelling alone i still go to places on my own if your company doesn't wanna go. I went for a 7am jog in Paris on my own it was so quiet but cafes are open. I enjoyed it so much didn't feel scared at all and i find Parisian friendly. I don't know but i don't feel scared when I'm in a new city 😅 my only issue is airport to hotel. We were at the eiffel tower 11pm then to a restaurant and then took the metro at midnight. There were still alot of people so it wasn't scary i guess.

Dear Niomi, I always waited for a new video of yours, was always so happy when new one showed up live. You helped me with a transistion into plant based lifestyle, I bought your cookbook, been here for your amazing what I eat in a day videos, your daily strolls in Notting Hill, your adventure with yoga, boxing, running etc. Just LOVED the content. Now I just cannot find anything for myself in your channel. So, I have to unsubscribe and I feel like I lost a friend. Thank you for the past years, you taught me a lot about health and diets and yoga, I discovered few nice sustainable brands because of you. But it's time to let go. I wish you well Niomi, hopefully you will find your real peace and happiness 🙏

[@S3xXxyD1nKz]

OMG… I love this! I’m also an only child and have always had and loved my own company and doing things by myself! And l’ve always wanted to take a solo trip somewhere! The closest thing I’ve done to that is a solo day trip from London to Windsor! But I feel like I could never do it, not because I’m scared or worried about it, but I’m married and have friends and have never been able to just do things like that off my own accord as there’s always other people I have to consider! I’m so happy for you to have this beautiful experience and do this for yourself and live your best life! Meanwhile I’ll continue to just take walks by myself! 😅

What a wonderful trip Niomi! 🇫🇷 You've inspired me to do something like this! I heard someone say once, when you go away with someone else you never take everything in, as you are talking and maybe a bit distracted. But whe you are alone you are taking everything in that you see and hear, the whole experience. The hotel and the restaurants looked wonderful. Did you buy the painting? It was beautiful! x 🌸 🌻

I saw a girl on tik tok who said also when traveling she walks around like she knows the place, so she’ll have her AirPod with the directions on & in her ear (& obvs in a sensible volume you can hear the directions while still being able to hear your surroundings)

Love this suggestion, thank you!

-- Hello Niomi! Thank you for this new video! I saw a Rothko exhibit a few months ago and I really enjoyed it. Best wishes! 😊❤️

Idk if I'm just plain stupid or if where I live is actually safe but somehow I never worry about my safety when I'm walking around alone at night. For whatever reason it just never even crosses my mind.

You're fortunate to live in a safe neighbourhood

Where do you live ? I want to live there 😊 ....in my country we think about it by second nature , in the day, at night , when with people , when alone . We always worry about safety.
