Filmed in San Francisco: Hitchcock Edition

[@steveandyoung]

Because of "The Birds," Bodega Bay will always hold a special place in my heart (I also took a girlfriend there on a drive north and spent the evening a couple decades ago when I was living in SF)

[@designR100]

Thank you for the video. I really like your hair and makeup. The black and white portion makes you look like a Hollywood starlet. Your eyes are so expressive with the lashes. You appear to be having fun and it makes a great connection.

[@ZeeneInRealLife]

Thanks! It WAS fun to make this so glad it came across :) I rarely use fake eyelashes and glued them on incorrectly (if you look closely the ends kind of extend a bit beyond the corners so they ended up with a wispy look) but the look was so great and over the top I would do it again.

[@doublebasshq]

The research and location filming on this is incredible-bravo, Zeene!

[@ZeeneInRealLife]

Thank you! This was such a fun project :)

[@deanjones1845]

[@ZeeneInRealLife]

@@deanjones1845 Thank you! 💜 So fun to make. Have to give credit to Savannah for coming up with the concept.

Good to see you back! My aunt was a good friend of Olivia de Havilland, Joan Fontaine's sister in the '30s. They both lived in the Los Feliz area of L A..

[@ZeeneInRealLife]

Wow, that’s awesome! De Havilland is a huge star.

[@cintiacastro-melendez138]

Thanks for your videos!!!! I have been searching travel information for weeks in you tube and your videos are the best I found!

[@ZeeneInRealLife]

So glad they are useful! Good luck with your planning and let me know if you have any questions.

[@elyrojas4738]

I didn’ t know any of this, incredible

[@RT-vw6yw]

Clicked so fast! Your videos are high quality, and your hard work is really appreciated. Looking forward to my first visit to "The City" later this month!

[@ZeeneInRealLife]

💕 Thanks! Have a great time on your first trip and keep your eyes out for all those filming locations 🎥

[@weege001]

this was a great vid.. thanks!

[@ZeeneInRealLife]

Glad you enjoyed it! We still are supposed to grab pizza or a walk in HMB - let's plan something for summer.

[@fixpacifica]

That collaboration worked well.

[@ZeeneInRealLife]

Thanks! It was a great partnership and helped that Savannah and I had similar working styles. 👍

[@minty7344]

Your way of telling stories as well as describing yummy food and just overall how you enjoy your city and days is just inspiring! Thank you for your videos 💖 Ps you look amazing here! 🧚🏼‍♂️

[@ZeeneInRealLife]

Thank you! 🥰

[@doublebasshq]

Yes! I love your intro!!

[@ZeeneInRealLife]

Thanks! It was fun to make this one - and I ended up learning a ton about Hitchcock. 🎥

[@pallaviraghunandan4741]

Welcome back ! How abt mount tam fam mnt tamalpais from the peak .? The views are awesome !

[@ZeeneInRealLife]

Thanks! I’ve always wanted to do that hike and would be a good summer activity. Currently working on a travel guide which has been sucking up all my productivity so as soon as that’s done hopefully I’ll get back to producing videos more regularly!

[@ZeeneInRealLife]

@@brooklyn0992 Thanks! I’m working on a travel guide that has been taking up all my bandwidth but hopefully get back to video making in the next half of the year.

[@richardmyracle6198]

Great intro.

[@ZeeneInRealLife]

Thank u! 😊

[@powder-blue]

I would love if you could do a deep dive on TALES OF THE CITY. (Or at least, the original season from 1993, and the last one from 2018). San Francisco is a character itself in that series :)

[@ZeeneInRealLife]

That would be an interesting one! Will add it to my list.

[@RaymondHng]

6:18 In Italian, _H_ after a _C_ or _G_ hardens it, not softens it. Therefore, _-chi_ in _Baldocchi_ is pronounced "-kee".

[@ZeeneInRealLife]

That makes sense! Like gnocchi. Thanks 😀

[@Thascales]

Hi there. We are due to come to San Francisco in April this year. What is it like for tourists at the moment? Should we delay in order to experience the city at its best? Any advice gratefully received.

[@ZeeneInRealLife]

@kevinriley Hi there! Things had been 95% open until the past week when omicron has caused some restaurants and businesses to temporarily close. I suspect that things will be up and down unpredictably so it will be difficult to time travel. I would come in April and just be flexible :)

[@Thascales]

@@ZeeneInRealLife thanks that’s really helpful. We were supposed to be last there last year and had to postpone- we don’t want to postpone again but want to experience as much as we can (much of which has been inspired by your videos, so thank you 🙏)

[@MalyDC4LandTravel]

Hello Zeene! I been a subscriber and been following your videos almost since you started the channel. I am from Austin Texas and my wife and I visit SF once a year since 2015. This year I went to sf for my bday in May and we’re going back for thanksgiving. Every time I went to SF we always went to the same restaurants but for thanksgiving i am taking my parents, siblings and nephews. My question is: do you know of any good traditional American breakfast restaurants that are not too expensive as well as traditional Mexican breakfast were I can take my family? Normally when my wife and I go we go the all the known places like: plow, sweet maple etc but I will like to know we’re the locals eat with out breaking the bank. Thank you so much in advance, We really love the channel. BTW, you answer a question I had about my visit in sf back in 2019, in this video: kzbin.info/www/bejne/e4WcmIyBr9WVbtk , we followed you’re advised and it worked out great. Thank you.

[@ZeeneInRealLife]

Hi Maly, I'm so sorry I missed this message -- somehow KZbin blocked this comment and it was sitting in my "spam" box. There are a ton of really great breakfast places depending on the neighborhood. You've hit many of the top breakfast places. For a solid American breakfast (eggs, bacon, potatoes, toast) you can also try St. Francis Fountain in Mission District, Dottie's True Blue Cafe in Mid-Market (although the area is a bit rough and on weekends you are lining up out on the street), Home Plate in the Marina, and Mama's on Washington Square Park in North Beach.

[@ZeeneInRealLife]

I'm actually not from China :)
