Hi, I'm Andrea! I'm an American who recently moved from Paris, France to New York City. I make videos about living abroad, traveling, writing and creativity, and all the wonderfully nerdy things I love. Also...I'm a bit of an unashamed coffee addict ☕️

As someone who was born and raised in NY and currently living in Queens, it's interesting to see other people's perspective of the city. The diversity of food and people in the city is something I will always love. Not far from where I live, there is a world food fair that I love to go to during the summer and fall. It's something you'll never see anywhere else and it's one of the reasons I'll think twice if I ever decide to leave NY. Good luck on your move to Montreal and hope you enjoy your experience there as well.
Thank you!! We absolutely loved Queens, and the diversity of people, cultures, and languages was one of the best aspects. I’m so happy we got to live there 🥰
Super late, but WELCOME TO QUEBEC!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Bienvenue a Montreal Andrea! j'espère que tu apprécieras notre petit coin de pays :)
Glad to hear you are moving to Montreal and Canada! I think it will be a good fit for you guys. I lived in Montreal for a few years (around the time when you visited) and it's a charming city. But as an anglophone, I had to leave because all the bills and policies introduced by the current Legault gov't that punishes anglophones, and I didn't feel like paying taxes to a government that doesn't serve me. But being French speaking, you two will fit in just perfectly.
Can you do a video in the future about the differences between Quebecois / Parisian accents and vocabulary that you've encounter? Also differences between NY and Mtl bagels! Best of luck on your move and hope you are enjoying Montreal!
The dynamic of French vs. English here is truly a complicated one! 😅 I'm sorry to hear that you ended up not feeling welcome. I definitely get the sense that the government/policies aren't exactly aligned with the spirit of the people, who have been so friendly (in both languages!). I will definitely talk more about Quebecois/Parisian linguistic differences, once I feel like I know a bit more haha - and the BAGELS 😍
All the best with the move! :) I remember your first vlogs from Montreal, really liked them.
Thank you!! 😊
Congrats Andrea I'm so excited for you! I can't wait to see what the next chapter holds for you.
Thank you!
omg i hope the move goes well! montreal seems like it will suit you! i follow another usamerican who moved to paris & stayed for many years & then her & her french husband moved to montreal a while back!
sending u good vibes & looking forward to videos about your time in montreal
Thank you! I’m really excited to settle in and truly discover the city, especially in all its seasons. I think we’re going to enjoy it 😍 Can’t wait to post more updates!
I’m so sad you’re leaving NYC, but man i’m so excited for Montreal! I cannot wait for those videos! ❤
PS: I love that cat tree behind you! it’s so great!!
Our cats love it too! 😸💜 Thank you!!
Oo le retour vers une ville francophone! j’espère que ça vous plaira, j'ai adoré y vivre pendant un peu plus d'un an :) Hâte de voir des vidéos avec ton avis sur l'accent québecois
Oui, j’ai très hâte de pouvoir utiliser le français encore une fois dans ma vie quotidienne ! Et j’adore l’accent québécois 😍 Mais comme tous les accents qu’on connaît moins, il me faut un peu de temps pour m’habituer à toutes les différences !
Question essentielle : si vous deviez choisir entre New York et Paris, quelle ville choisiriez-vous et pourquoi ? :)
Her voice sounbds deeper than it did 12 years ago
That would be age (and getting used to talking to a camera) 😛
