Wow even though his apartment is small, it's so well organized and decorated.

[@ElenaTaber]

I agree!

[@zohmingmawii5067]

I love how he just TAKES and BORROWS things 😂😂❤️❤️

[@MTMF.london]

The word he uses is "thrifted" LOL

[@jacquiforonda6993]

He really made an aperol spritz before giving the tour. Iconic.

[@thepurplepalace85]

this is such a good series!! so cool :)

[@ElenaTaber]

Ah thank ya! More to come 🥳 hopefully one day I can do it in Paris as well 👀

The space is used so well and very well decorated you can't tell how small the space is. He did a good job decorating. I loved it.

[@sarahk8758]

him: talking about having a core group of friends in nyc to feel grounded and not isolated....me: having lived here for years and having exactly no friends in the area....hmmmmm maybe that's why im struggling lmao.

I'll be your friend 😉

jeez I want to move there in the next few months but this comment from the video is scaring me

[@sarahk8758]

@@cscholar it’s just hard to make friends as an adult tbh but for some ppl it’s easier than others, so don’t feel discouraged. I love nyc even when I’m lonely :)

I need friends too lol. I've been in nyc for 3 years already and my closest friend here is my bf

[@MissBerlinerin]

He has very good taste. Everything in his appartment looks classy. Love it !

[@kelseysmess]

Pls do a video on how Peter got into his career and what he does as an analyst (not even a software engineer) at this fintech startup because he’s paying 3K a month for this tiny place, he must be making over 100k a year and I need that. Or he has a trust fund and I’d like that too Edit: he’s paying for it all by himself!!! Pls pls do a career video on him!!!!

[@BiMiHi]

mood

[@eastwood7941]

most likely he is not paying for it himself. Probably his parents are paying for him to live there. Or his family own that apartment but cant rent it out at the moment so they let him live in it.

[@j6cob505]

ya his parents are 100% paying for that, anyone that says startup is generally not making much lol

[@katsiano]

a financial analyst makes 80k on average across the US and NY is more expensive (and thus pays more) than average. he also probably has an MBA!

[@elizabeththecity9674]

I absolutely love the west village, I just moved here a few weeks ago and love all of the restaurants and shops :) I definitely sacrifice space for location but I think it’s worth it!!

[@ElenaTaber]

Yes it’s so dreamy!

[@skylineemily]

As a New Yorker, it's funny reading the comments about how people think this is expensive. Wow - you guys have no idea. This is a good deal for the neighborhood and laundry in unit.

[@eliseramcourt5633]

omg yes this editing thoughhhh ok elena pop off

[@tatatarryn4813]

tysm for mentioning the lgbtq history of the village...a lot of youtubers gloss over these important cultural centers and just show the 'cute spots to eat' etc. (nothing wrong w this i just appreciate people who actually take it another step) because its not 'on brand' for them to be culturally aware. anyways love this series and keep them coming elena!!

[@louisesb]

left on purpose is a great movie to watch about the village, the yippies and 60s counterculture movement are a really cool/important part of history!

It’s there. You need to look for it

[@rhondajohnston3084]

Please watch Cash Jordan before doing so a lot of these channels romanticize nyc and price gauging through gentrification.

@@lolad6083 yeah i feel like, even with this video, she didn't really respond to past critiques about romanticizing a specific neighborhood but not addressing gentrification

[@celinesandvr2693]

Can you make a video talking about the salary people in NYC usually earn in different jobs and how they afford living there?🥰

[@MTMF.london]

There really is no "average" salary in NYC. New York is such a huge hub for so many different industries it is hard to say what is average. Finance/banking; media/publishing; performing/visual arts; fashion; tech; medical/health/wellness; academia; hospitality (hotels/restaurants/event planning), plus many other supporting jobs - they all have different pay scales. I will say though the highest average earners are probably in the fields of banking/finance and law. And certainly not everyone who works in NYC can afford to live there. Even the outer boroughs are expensive now and many commute from suburbs and towns from the whole of Tri-state area.

[@margotexplainsitall]

Love this series! What a cute apartment 🤩 The bathroom is amazing. I knew I recognized that Green Peace poster hahaha

[@londontolosangeles12]

my heart actually hurts that this is so expensive. I live in a major Scottish city and pay £325 for a flat about three times the size...

[@MTMF.london]

Everything in New York City is expensive but this is not expensive by New York standard. Especially, the apartment being located in the West Village and has a proper one bedroom plus the washer and dryer.

[@whoasusie]

The Etsy ad that aired before this video has me SOBBING (Christmas commercials + COVID really hit me in the feels)

[@free-palestine000]

i love this series! it feels like im friends with u guys and makes it feel like I can actually make my dream of of moving to ny seem more realistic.

[@tatsf]

I would love to live in a place like this in the West Village! Having laundry, a separate bedroom (albeit small), A/C, and a washer/dryer all make this place great. Living in San Francisco I don't have sticker shock over the rent, but also wish that things in both cities were priced much lower so that, as an older person working in social services, I don't have to be so scared of not being able to afford anything moving forward!

[@MacabreCatt]

this is the earliest I've ever been to a video in my life lmao, love ur vids!

Great video and Peter did an awesome job. I love NY !

[@victoriamayrose5219]

I love that you add a little background and history

[@johnpetty3574]

I liked the 1980's and 1990's Village ( NOT THE CRIME ) but the nightclub scene , there were WAY MORE to go to and choose from. I still like clothes and other lil nick nacks shopping there but it change a LOT , i'd still live there if i could but i'll forever be missing that earlier time period.

[@al3xthom799]

This apartment is so well thought out for the space!!

[@YoJmo]

Nice series and production! If I may add, be sure to add a fade in effect to the audio when you make your jump cuts. This will take out the audio "blips" when the cut begins. It'll bring the quality of your work higher.

[@bgmbst]

may I make some recommendations Elena? I think series idea is great, maybe you can create an intro for the series like the owners(or you) can say 'BuzzedIn' when opening the door(im not the most creative, but that is an idea to start with) and another thing, the camera quality is good but it was a bit shaky so it is possible to opt for a hand tripod maybe? Hope it helps

@@goldtiger9453 yepp same with the original poster she actually lives a couple blocks away from me in the east village. She pays $1800 dollars for her room I pay $1000 and my building is newer. They are the reason landlords price gauge. So everyone looses getting less paying more.
