My goal is simple: for you to leave this channel with a smile or something to think about. (if it can be through food, even better 😉)

Please, only subscribe if you actually enjoy my content and want to see more of it 🍀🇫🇷 🇦🇺

-merci.🌸

*UPDATE*

I haven't received any official confirmation from YouTube yet, but from what I can see, I haven't been removed from the Partner Program either... and based on my analytics, I think I may have finished about 23 subscribers above the requirement.

If that's the case, then it's entirely thanks to you.

Over the past couple of weeks, and honestly long before that, you've shown me an incredible amount of support. Through your views, your comments, your messages, your kindness, and simply by choosing to spend a few minutes of your day here.

Thank you for understanding me.

Thank you for understanding what I'm trying to do on this platform.

I've never wanted this channel to be about chasing numbers. What matters most to me is creating videos that either make you smile, make you think, or ideally both at the same time.

The comments you've left recently reminded me exactly why I started doing this in the first place. So many of you have shared your own experiences, your cultures, your stories, and your perspectives. It feels less like posting videos and more like having thousands of conversations I never expected to have.

A few months ago, after losing my job, coming back to YouTube felt uncertain. Looking back now, even though it was difficult to process at the time, I'm starting to see it as the push I needed to return to something that genuinely brings me joy.

So whether you've been here for years, found me through a recent video, subscribed this week, or simply watched quietly in the background...

Thank you. Truly. 🤍

I'm very excited for what's coming next.

I normally never ask for this kind of thing, but I wanted to be honest with you all because this has genuinely been weighing on me for the past 24 hours…

Two years ago, I reached the YouTube Partner Program requirements thanks to all of you, but also the amount of work and love I poured into creating videos that truly meant something to me. After stepping away from YouTube for several months while working in Paris, and then unexpectedly losing my job in April, I slowly found my way back here again.

As difficult as that period was to process, a part of me chose to see it as a sign to return to the one thing that had always made me feel the most alive, connected, and genuinely fulfilled: creating.

What I didn’t realise is that I now only have 2 days left to meet the YouTube Partner Program requirements again before being removed from it. I didn't even know it was possible to be removed from it to begin with...

And the strange thing is… over the past few days, thousands of you have watched my videos, liked them, commented incredibly kind things, shared your own stories, and honestly reminded me why I started creating content in the first place.

So this message is simply for the people who genuinely enjoyed my content and would actually like to see more of it in the future:

If you meant to subscribe at some point, or thought you already had, subscribing right now would genuinely help me more than you probably realise.

I only need around 200 more subscribers to reach the requirements again.

No pressure whatsoever, of course. I truly only want people here who actually connect with my videos and want to stay for what’s coming next.

I’ll be honest, I really hate asking for things like this. It’s not naturally who I am. But I’ve always tried to be very transparent with you all, so I’d rather simply say it openly than pretend otherwise.

And if you’re already someone who watches regularly, comments, laughs with me, shares memories with me, or simply feels a little less alone through these videos… thank you. Truly. 🤍

This little corner of the internet unexpectedly became very important to me. 🌸

Wow… I am completely speechless right now. 😭❤️
I just wanted to take a moment to say a massive THANK YOU to everyone who has watched the new video, and especially to those who took the time to leave a comment.
Waking up to see over 300 comments in just 48 hours was completely unexpected, and I am so deeply touched by all your kind words and support. Reading through them has genuinely made my week.

Thank you for being the most supportive audience a creator could ask for. Back to reading the rest of your comments now! 👇✨

Hello to you all 🥰
I just wanted to let you know that my next video is currently being exported. It's a video that I have put a lot of time and effort in, that I truly hope you will enjoy. I wanted to share the lessons that I've learnt after being in my first relationship for now 5 years. I truly believe that it might resonate with some of you, whether you're in one yourself or single. My Wi-Fi isn't the fastest at the moment, so, please excuse me for the late upload. It will be uploaded on Saturday Feb 15th instead of today.
I hope you are well. Take care. X

I know how it feels to overthink, to wait for the ‘right time,’ to doubt yourself before you even begin. But here’s the thing, once you start, you’ll wonder why you didn’t do it sooner. So if something’s been on your mind… take that first step today. Future you is already smiling. x

I’ve learned this the hard way. Staying in a situation that doesn’t align with who you are is exhausting. Growth may be uncomfortable, but it’s worth it in the end. 🍀❤️

As my video in Paris (Eating at 'Boulangeries' only for 24H) is taking me longer than expected to edit, I wanted to share with you how my month of June went in Sweden. I recorded moments at my in-laws, up until the brightest day of the year. I hope you will enjoy this little vlog. https://youtu.be/kBLnmVNr6_c

BONJOUR everyone!
Yes, I've recently been back in Paris, my home town, so get yourself ready for some content about my beautiful city, Paris. 🇨🇵🥐🥖

(I have a few days left, tell me if there anything you'd want me to talk about or try)

I recently discovered ramen (I know I'm a little late). I loved it so much that I couldn't possibly move on with my life without learning how to do my own. Let me introduce you to my first ever ‘Tantanmen’ Ramen ❤️😇

xoxo

Hello hello 🌞
I have exciting news, my next video is officially the last video you will see with the poor quality I have had so far. It's been hard to watch on my end as well, trust me. It's official, I have a new camera which I can't wait to tell you all about. Be ready for FOCUSED videos from now on. You're welcome 😅🥰
