let me just say thank you so much for all the love and support
around the launch of my podcast. So right now I am recording episode two,
which is crazy. I've just been so excited and encouraged
by how excited you guys have been around me
launching this. Like y'all are the best you really are. And I've actually been thinking
about what we should call ourselves. Like, you know how call her
daddy has the daddy gang. I'm like,
What should our community be called? And I was toying around with the name
the real ones. Let me know what you guys think,
because I notice in my videos I'll be like, like and subscribe
if you’re real one. But the more I started to think about it,
I was kind of like, whenever I have an interaction
with any of you guys, like, honestly, when I was living in Paris
and you guys would come up to me, I've also had a few people come up to me
in L.A., which has been really cool, or if I'm just DMing, you,
you all carry this vibe, this energy where it's like,
These are my people kind of thing. Like, you all feel so good to be around. You all feel like the energy
always feels so genuine and safe. And it, it really feels like
you guys are a part of this community. And if I'm being honest, a community
that I've always wanted to have just a group of really cool down to earth
people who are so excited to try new things in life
and learn more about themselves. And it's honestly
not even just about that, but it's just it's like this energy
that I can't explain. But you guys all carry it honestly. Every single one of you that I've I've met
so far, I've felt this way about. So to me,
it's like this real genuine energy. So that's why I was like,
I really feel like we are the real ones, so let me know what you guys
think about that. Or if you have other suggestions,
feel feel free to DM me shoot me an email. You know,
this is kind of like a free for all, and I want it to be something
that we all resonate with. So let me know what you guys think. So in today's episode,
I wanted to bring you guys back to when I went to Paris this past summer. I wanted to walk you guys through
what that experience was like for me. I definitely felt
all the feels and just want to talk through like, do I regret moving
back to the United States? Do I ever want to move back to Paris? I want to get into all of that. And also wait,
let me backtrack for a second, because, you know, for those of you guys
who are new to my community, you probably have no idea
why I keep talking about Paris. So just to backtrack, I lived in Paris for about four and a half years,
and I decided to move back to the United States
about a year and a half ago. So Paris is definitely a place that feels like a second home for me. It's just a place where I grew
and evolved so much. And going back this past summer,
I honestly wasn't sure what to expect. So also let me give you the background on that
and kind of like why I went back to Paris. So every year or I guess typically
every year, the company that I work for does an activation at the Cannes
Lions Festival of Creativity. So this is different
from the film festival. So this is basically more so a festival
for like the marketing industry. So like brands come,
we brought creators with us and in our space we just held a lot
of sessions around the creator economy. You know how brands and creators and platforms can work
better together, things like that. So I was so grateful
that I got to go for work. So because I'm the director of Social, I went to just capture
all of the social content for our time there,
and we were there for about a week, but since I was going
all the way to Cannes. So again, for those of you guys
who are new here, I'm currently living in L.A.,
so I moved here about a year ago. I'm a little shy of a year. I kind of just started this
brand new chapter of my life. But anyways,
because I was traveling from L.A. to Cannes,
which is like a ten hour flight, I was like,
I might as well make the most of this trip and just make a whole Euro trip out of it. So I was like, Okay, after Cannes,
I'll go to Paris for a bit. Also go to Berlin because a really good
friend of mine lives there. Then I also wanted
to spend some time in London too, and then also a few of my coworkers
and I were talking. We all decided to go to Ibiza together
that summer, and so I ended up being in Europe for what, like five weeks,
I think. Yeah,
I ended up being in Europe for five weeks. So I just made a whole Euro trip of it. But anyway, so before I went to Cannes
or before I went to Europe, I'm not going to lie. I was going through all of the emotions
like one, of course, like work was really busy and whatnot,
just preparing for this event. But at the same time I was like,
Oh my gosh, like I'm going back to France. And I honestly hadn't been back since I left, which was about a year
and a half ago or wait no. I left in March of 2022
and I was going back around June. So, okay, it had been like
a little over a year since I left. Leading up to it, I was just kind of like,
Oh my God is going back kind of make me feel or wish that I had stayed for longer. Am I going to miss it so much
that I'm going to want to move back? And I've already set up life here in L.A. I was just kind of like,
I don't know what I'm getting myself into. And especially for me because, you know,
if you watched my last podcast episode, you guys kind of know,
like when I set my mind to something, it's like there's something in me that's like,
you have to do this, you know? Like, forget what anyone else says. You have to do this. And I was like, Oh my God,
watch me go back and love it again and then start the process of figuring out
how I can move back there. Like, I was like, God,
what's it going to be like? So I just wanted to share that
with you guys so you kind of can get a sense of the headspace
that I was in before I got there. And then we can compare that to how I felt
when I was actually there. So I traveled over to Europe
with a coworker turned friend. Let me just tell you guys,
if any of you decide to fly internationally from LAX,
give yourself so much time, okay? Give yourself more than enough time. Cause my friend and I got to the airport. We thought we had a good amount of time. We're over there
chatting it up, eating at P.F. Chang's, like, enjoying our lives,
like whatever we look down on or take it. And it was like, about to board and the plane was about to board
and I think 20 minutes and we were on the opposite
side of the airport. So, you know,
those little carts of the airport that people are driving in
and will like bring you to your gate. So I see one of those and I'm like,
oh my God, girl. Like, let's get on one of these carts. It'll get us there faster than if we walk. We both get in the car. And I'm like, Why is this moving so slow? Like, painfully slow? And you know that feeling
when you're in a rush to get somewhere and everything around you
is moving so slow and you're like, What is going
on? That is literally what was happening. And we're like panicking. Like, we cannot miss these flights. People are expecting us
in Cannes at a certain time we have to set up the space,
all of this stuff. So we’re still in the cart, we’re still in the cart And when I tell you, this cart was going so slow, like I could
have walked faster than it than this. And then it came to a complete stop
and I was like, Oh, no, not today. We're getting out of the car. So we got out of the car
and we start running, running, running. We're both like sweating. Okay? We hear over the loudspeaker
them calling people to a certain gate. And both of us looked at each other
like we know they're about to call us. Like,
it was such a hot mess like the stress. This stress
that came with catching this flight. So we're freaking out. We're running, panting, sweating. We finally get to the gate
and they hadn't even started boarding it. And I was like,
God really came through the gate. God really came through. Because if we were to have missed
that way, I honestly don't know what we would have done. So thank God all of that worked out. The flight was fine, long but fine. So then we finally landed near
because I believe nieces, the airport is the closest airport to can and then
everyone usually just Ubers to can. But we landed knees
and thank God for Airtags you guys,
if you're someone who travels a lot and especially travels internationally,
get yourself some airtags. And I'm so glad that my friend
remember to get these. She got like a pack of them
and just let me borrow one of hers because of course when we landed in Nice
we noticed that two. We noticed that a few of our bags got
stuck in Paris and didn't make it to Nice. So I probably would have been panicking
if I didn't have those airtags
and didn't know where my bags were. But yeah. So just thank God for those Airtags. So anyways, I was like, okay,
well like let's go talk to an airline rep to figure out our bad situation,
how they can get them to us. So I was like, Oh, flipped my hair. It was like, I got this. Okay. I was so proud of myself because
I was able to have a complete conversation with a guy in French and we were able
to figure out our bag situation. And my friend was just looking at me
like, Girl, you speak French. It's so funny because through me,
and especially when I lived in Paris, I was so shy about speaking French,
like I was really insecure about it. And it's not like
I didn't know any French, You know, like when I lived there, I definitely knew
enough to get around and whatnot, but I always just felt like insecure about it
because I was always around people whose French was so good, like
French people or, you know, good friends that were married or had French boyfriends
for like a super long time. So they just, you know, caught on. And, you know, for me, I took every
I took French lessons every single year that I lived there. But that that language lesson
that it's a hard language and also what I found
and I think what also made me a little insecure was that whenever
I would go to order something like if I was at a restaurant
or something, I would order in French and the person like the waiter
would always respond back in English. Always, it would always happen. Granted, I'm sure they were picking up
on my English accent, but I was like, Oh, maybe my French isn't that good. But you know, later my French friends
told me that a lot of times the French a lot of times French
people want to practice their English. So excuse me. So when an English speaker comes along,
they're usually like, Oh, this is my opportunity to practice
my English. So I think I just ran into maybe that. And I'm not saying
that's like all French people. I think some were just like, nice. And for that I was struggling because with the French people
I will say that I found if you start your conversation in French,
at least trying and they kind of get the sense
that you're struggling, they'll help you out
and respond to you in English. But it would happen to me
so often and I would just kind of like it just made me feel like really insecure. And honestly, any time people would ask
me, like, Do you speak French? I'd be like a little,
but when I whipped out my French at the Nice airport with the airline rep, I was like, You go, girl, okay. It really just came back to me and
I was so proud of myself for that moment. So I just had to share that. You know? It's also interesting too. So when I was in Paris
and me using my French, one of my French friends was like, Tiff,
you speak French. You did not speak French this much
when you lived here. I almost feel like
it was like a confidence thing. I don't know if it was because I knew
I was only there for a little bit of time, so I was kind of like, Oh, whatever. I'm just going to say what I know,
and if it comes out bad, it's fine. Versus when I lived there,
I feel like it was the perfectionist in me that was like, Oh, you have to speak it
well. You've lived here for this amount of time
and whatnot. Meanwhile,
I had friends that had lived there for like eight or nine years
and barely spoke French. Okay, So I really tried guys. I really tried, but I honestly think
it was a confidence switch. I ended up realizing that
I know a lot more than I thought I did. So that was kind of like a nice
a nice little thing that happened. So anyways, my friend
and I, we finally got to Cannes and we finally got our bags too. But Oh my God,
it was kind of a hot mess. So I mean, mine. Mine was okay because I always
I always travel with the hard suitcases. But my friend so one of the bags,
she one of the bags that she had was like a duffel bag. I don't know what happened,
but it literally looked like that duffel bag got beat up. Like, completely beat up. Like, honestly
didn't even look like the same bag. And it was all so wrapped up in plastic. It was a hot mess. She had to get a new bag. She had to get a new bag
to go to her next destination. But we did get to Cannes safe and sound
and and for me, I was just so grateful
to be back in France. Honestly, it's also so crazy
how life comes full circle like a little over a year ago,
I was miserable leaving Paris, had no idea what my life
was going to look like after. And then I'm coming back for work. Like what? How does that happen? And the last time that I was in Cannes,
this was back in 2021. I just like booked a solo trip. It was a little after I had just gone
through like a really bad breakup and just wanted some time to myself
to, like, experience something new, do something that was a little bit
outside of my comfort zone. Because when I went in 2021 to Cannes,
it was the first time I'd ever done a solo trip,
just like completely by myself. So it was also just like a really nice
feeling of, wow, like the last time I was here,
I was in a completely different space. I was feeling so unsettled. I had kind of just gone
through a major breakup I was in. I was almost kind of like
finding myself again. Okay. And then being back with a whole new life, you know, new friends,
new coworkers, a new job. It was a really cool feeling to see how much I had grown
since when I was last there. So, yeah,
I was so happy to be back in France. You know, just even just little things
like the food for example. Okay. Here in the United States, I have the worst gluten intolerance,
the worst dairy intolerance. Like, I literally cannot touch it
or I get super, super sick. Over there I can eat everything under the sun. I still try and stay away from dairy
because even over there, sometimes it makes me break out
or I just don't feel that great. But I mean, I had a cheese pizza
over there and I was completely fine. Like it's just so wild how different
the quality of food is between France and the United States. Like, it's insane,
but I always feel so much better eating in Europe than I do here and not going to lie
even here in the States. I don't know if any of you guys
have developed this over the years, but I feel like I'm
becoming more intolerant to sugar too. So like there are times where here
in the States I'll have something with a lot of sugar in my body. It just feels so inflamed,
like my joints hurt, my body just aches. And it's the worst feeling. Over there I can eat pastries,
I can eat cake, I can have ice cream, I can eat all the things,
and I'm completely fine. So the first thing I was excited to do when I got to France was eat that food. Okay? And especially the bread, there's
just honestly nothing like French bread. So again, I was in Cannes for work,
so we spent honestly every single day working. Working. We worked a lot. And then after Cannes,
it was time to go to Paris. So, oh my gosh, I had all the feels when I landed at CDG. So the Charles de Gaulle Airport,
which was like when I or at least when I lived there, it was like the main airport
that I was flying in and out of. And when I landed, I was just like,
Oh my God, girl, like your back, your back. I was excited. I had butterflies. I was also nervous
because of what I shared earlier, like, am I going to fall in love with it
all over again and want to move back? Okay, so I land, I find a taxi to take me to my hotel and usually I would get an Uber from CDG, which is what I would recommend over
getting a taxi. But something was going on with Uber. Like I couldn't find one or like it was
going to take a long time for one to come. So I just decided to hop in a taxi. What I'm about to share with you. It is not representative
of all French people. I know that for whatever reason,
French people get a bad rap of being rude and whatnot, I will say. And if you have watched any of my YouTube
videos, I have met
some of the most wonderful French people. And I can say that that is not true
for all of them. I think like in every culture
you have nice people and you have not so nice people. But I also do think that
and I really felt this when I was living here,
that they're French, they're just a lot more real
and a lot more honest. And I do think that in America
we're kind of raised to be the nice ones, the friendly ones, versus just being like
real honest and true about our feelings. And it's something that honestly,
since living in Paris is something that I've been trying
to break free of, I would say, you know, I'm definitely a work in progress
when it comes to this. Again,
I think just when you're conditioned to operate a certain way,
sometimes it takes a while to shake. But anyways, I just wanted to share that
before I say what I'm going to say because I don't want you guys to be like, Oh, it's just the French way
because I don't think it is. I think that this taxi driver was rude. So anyways, I'm getting into my taxi. I'm all excited to like go back to my hood
because I decided to book with a hotel that's in the neighborhood
that I used to live in in the 18th. So I get in the taxi and I'm like,
You know, you take card, right? He's like, Yeah, no problem. It's fine. We're driving off. And he goes, But,
you know, cash is better for me. And I was like,
Oh, I don't have any cash on me. And he's like, Oh, well,
we can stop at a bank. And I was just kind of like,
No, you told me you accepted card and he was like,
Oh, well, card is better for you, Cash is better for me, and starts
going on a tangent. And I was like, Excuse me, sir, I can get out of the cab
and get into a different one. Like, that's no problem for me. And then he shut his mouth
and kept driving it. Sometimes you just got to
you know, put your foot down a little bit. So anyways,
I was kind of annoyed with that. But the second I, but the second we like
drove up to my neighborhood. 0mg I had all the feels. I had all the feels, you know when
memories just start rushing back to you. That's exactly how I felt
just being in my neighborhood again. So he dropped me off
and I had about an hour before I could check into my hotel room
because I just got there a little bit early. So I just decided to walk around
and I walked over to my old apartment in Paris, which you guys know,
I loved that apartment. I really loved that apartment. So I'm back at my apartment
and it's so crazy. Like, I remember the gate code. They hadn't changed the gate code. I really wanted to go up, but I was like,
Let me not bother these people. Like, what do I look like? Ringing their bell and being like, Hey,
I used to live here. Can I see the space? Like, no they're going to be like, Girl,
who are you? So I just sat my little behind outside
and I'm not going to lie. I was very emotional. It was this feeling of, Wow, I can't believe how long I lived in Paris
for. Also this feeling of even though I've left,
even though I left and started, you know, a life somewhere
else, it's still really feels like home. Like, honestly,
it just felt like I had gone on vacation and came back home to Paris. I was kind of getting those feelings,
but at the same time I could see clear as day how much I had grown
and evolved since living in Paris. Like I felt like I felt like me,
but like a more evolved version of me. And I was just remembering
how much I went through in Paris. The ups, the downs,
the good things, the bad things. Just realizing like, Wow,
I went through a lot here and I just kept pushing through. And sometimes I also feel like it takes
you coming out of a situation just to see how much you went through. Because I feel like sometimes when you're in a situation,
it's like you just have to keep going and things keep coming your way,
but it's like you just have to keep pushing forward. It's almost like you're in survival mode,
right? Versus when you're on the other side
and you're more calm and your nervous system is a bit
more regulated. You're like, Wow,
I can't believe I was going through, you know, whatever
I went through on a day to day basis. So I was definitely feeling very grateful
for where I'm at now in my life and also just so proud of myself
for handling a lot just on my own while I was there, and also just
feeling grateful for knowing, accepting and acknowledging when it was time for me
to close that chapter and start a new one,
because it definitely wasn't easy. Like I was feeling in my gut,
like it was time to leave Paris. But I was really afraid
to pull the trigger. And when I finally did, it felt like a weight
had been lifted off of my shoulders. Like, even though I love Paris and we're so grateful for my experience
there and learned a lot, it was kind of like,
it's time for something new. So in that moment, you know, that moment
where I'm back in this apartment that I lived in for however many years,
there were so many memories and whatnot, it definitely felt like, wow, this was a beautiful chapter that I needed to grow
in the way that I needed to grow. But at the same time, I'm so grateful and happy about the chapter
that I'm in now, honestly. Like, that's that's really how I felt. And this is literally, again,
within like the first hour of me being back in my neighborhood. Okay, So these were just kind of like my initial feelings
when I first got to Paris. It was also so special,
something that happened that day or honestly, right after
I was walking around the neighborhood and notice that the hairdresser
that I used to go to was open. I remember when I had left Paris,
I was so sad because my hairdresser was in Haiti. She didn't know that I was leaving. And this is someone who I would like. You know, I used to go get my hair
done with her every single month, and I just felt really sad about
not being able to say goodbye to her. And I remember trying
to get in contact with her. But I think when she was in Haiti,
her French phone was shut off. So it was just like this whole thing. And I remember being really sad about it. So anyways, I decided to stop in my old
hair salon and my hairdresser is there. We literally both looked at each other
and started balling, crying like it was a whole thing,
like we were both unwell. For me, it was such a beautiful moment
too, because again, my hairdresser and I come from
like completely different backgrounds. We don't speak each other's languages that
well, so she could speak some English. And of course I could speak some French,
but not at the capacity that either of us could speak our language
is, you know. So it was such a beautiful moment of like,
wow, we shared something so special, even with not knowing each other's
languages perfectly. And it was just this feeling of,
wow, like, this is what true connection is. This is what true connection is. And the more that I thought about it to you, that's
what made Paris what it was for me. You know, it wasn't just being abroad or having the new experience,
which I will say was amazing to you. But what made Paris
what it was for me is the people that I met there
and the connections that I made and the people that helped make Paris
feel like home. And if I'm being honest with you, it's
not like I had a ton of friends when I was over there. There were a lot of times where I felt really lonely,
and I don't know if I'll get into all of that in this episode. I'll probably get into that
more in another episode. But, you know, just seeing those familiar
faces, like going to your favorite cafe and seeing the same waiter
going to your hair salon, oh my God, there's this other there's this other restaurant
that I'm like literally obsessed with. They're called La Creole. And I remember I used to go there so much
that whenever I went, they would be so excited
to see me like the owners, like it was. It just became a thing. And that is what I truly missed about
Paris. And, you know, over and above, just like
seeing familiar faces and whatnot. It was also so good to go back
and see my friends like these people who held me down
during some crazy times in Paris. It was just so nice to be able
to see them again and again. Just this feeling of, Wow, like I haven't seen you in over a year,
but it literally feels like nothing changed. And even for them, they were like,
Tiff, it's so crazy. Like, it feels like you still live here
and we just haven't seen you in a while. And that's kind of the feeling
that I was getting with them too. And I think that that's how, you know,
you got some real ones around, you know, when the energy just feels pure and good
and you vibe together again like that, that's how you know,
that's definitely how you know. So that trip was so yeah,
I spent a lot of that trip just like reconnecting with my friends
and hearing what they'd been up to. And honestly, I'm trying
to get a few of them over here to L.A. to visit for a little bit. I would love that. I would love that. And it's so funny too. I feel like vlogging in Paris just came a lot more naturally to me than it does
here. Like even when I was just there
over this past summer during this trip that I'm telling you guys about, it was so easy for me to just whip out
my camera in fog like I was doing it. No problem. I don't know if it's just because it's
where I started creating content, so it just feels a little bit
more easy and natural. But here in L.A.,
I find myself getting a little shy. And it's funny, right? Because in L.A., I feel like there's
so many content creators and so many people doing this,
but I don't know why. I feel like I'm just like a little bit
more shy doing it over here than I that I am not even just in Paris,
but in Europe. I was so quick to pull out my camera. I don't know what it is,
but a time was had in Paris and I would say
just how I'm feeling about it right now is, you know, Paris will always have
a special place in my heart. It always well, I feel like it's you know, it will always be one of the most
transformative chapters of my life. It's funny, my my therapist at the time
when I was living in New York City, had said to me,
You are going to go to Paris and you are going to come back
a different person. You are not going to be the same person. Like experiences
like those don't leave you unchanged. But I was like,
What does she mean by that? I'm going to be the same person.
It's fine. But now when I tell you living there,
it's like I. I gained a newfound sense of independence
because there's just so much you go through on your own. I mean, for one,
I move there, no friends, no family. And I kind of, in a sense, discovered my own little family in Paris. And I would say especially through my MBA, I truly met
some lifelong friends during my MBA. And I just think when you and I'm
sure you guys can relate to this, but when you are put in a situation
where you just have to figure things out completely on your own, especially
when you're in a foreign country, you learn a lot. You learn a lot
about what you're capable of. And just being back there,
I was very much just like, Wow. Little Tiff, who moved to Paris in her
twenties, she had no idea. She had no idea what was in store. But she did. She did the damn thing. She really did. So for any of you guys
who have gone through a situation where you had to just
completely figure things out and learn to survive in a new environment,
I applaud you because it is not easy. And for any of you and for any of you
thinking about moving abroad, you're going to love it. You're going to have
the time of your life. But there's going to be you know, there are going to be some times
that make you question whether or not
you made the right decision. At least that was my case. But overall, it will be life changing
and it will be worth it. But I say all of this to say, do I regret moving
back to the United States? Not at all. For me personally, I needed
this new chapter of my life to happen because I was feeling so stuck with where
I was in life when I was living in Paris. And at the time that I moved
especially, I was just feeling so stuck. And now that I'm in the States
and kind of like in this new chapter, I feel a lot more grounded
and I feel a lot more settled. And then there's always the question of
Do you see yourself moving back to Paris? I'll never say never, because who knows? Maybe will be a point in my life
where I feel really called to moving back. But right now, or in the near future,
I don't think so. But what I would like to do is spend like a good chunk of time
there every year. Like I think it would be really cool
to like, spend a month there or a few months
there and just travel throughout Europe. So I could definitely see myself going
back for like an extended amount of time. But right now I just
I like having a home base in the States. And I also think that there are just like
little things that moving back. I'm like, Wow, this is so easy compared
to what I had to deal with in France. Just because this is my home country. It's just I feel like I'm in a flow right
now, but I could definitely see myself going back for a chunk of time
just because I still feel connected to it. You know, I still feel like
it's my home away from home. So I'll definitely be back. I'm not sure when, but your girl is going
to be back in Paris at some point. So yeah, guys, overall,
going back to Paris was a ten out of ten. I'm so glad I got to go back and do all of my favorite things,
see all of my favorite people. It's it's almost like my soul needed it. If that makes sense. Like my soul needed to go back to Paris and have that experience for sure. And I'm excited to go back. You know, when it feels right and when that time comes and share
more of my adventures in Paris and beyond. I also just want to travel
more in general. Like now that I feel
just more settled into life in L.A., I definitely want to look
into planning some trips because. Because if anything, I feel like that's
kind of what I've been missing. I've just been missing
just being in a new culture and having these little adventures
and seeing new places, something that I genuinely love to do. And I'm so glad that I had that month or so of just exploration and travel
and being able to do that. But I see how my soul just like craves
it and needs it. So I have a feeling
I'll be traveling in the near future and I will definitely be
taking you guys along with me. So guys, that's all for me. Oh my God.
I feel like I've been rambling so much. I'm going to have a field
day editing this episode, But that's my trip to Paris in a nutshell. And I just have to make a few more
episodes on the rest of my travels. I also I did film a lot when I was abroad,
so the vlogs are definitely coming. Can't wait for you guys

but thank you so much for watching. If you're watching on YouTube,

always a joy to chat with you guys. Thank you as always for tuning in
