Hi, I'm Andrea! I'm an American expat currently living in Paris, France. I make videos about writing and creativity, living abroad, traveling, and all the wonderfully nerdy things I love. Also...I'm a bit of an unashamed coffee addict ☕️

Excellent vid I think this is so refreshing !thanks for sharing Andrea, you’re brave to admit all those things to the world
you look lovely in this video! i love your hair. i'm really bad at remembering things and i'm a messy eater
Andrea you make really good videos, very enjoyable!
I'm really bad at being patient and keeping a serious mood in serious situations haha
The relating in your videos is realy great. Good job
Great video! I might do this too :D Also love the pigtails!
I definitely feel you on the direction thing. I'm a lot better now though. When I was in highschool about 6 years ago, my friend's dad was dropping me home one day and I couldn't direct him to my house 😅
The more I watch your videos, the more I feel like you're me from an alternative reality. Only a little bit better at everything! :D We've got so many things in common, it's insane - the writing, the music, the love of languages and their proper use (English is not my native language but I've got a great appreciation of it), the Harry Potter fandom, my birthday month also being November (and me also considering it 'my birthday month' :D I think I remember you saying that in an old video). My boyfriend is also French so I can relate to all the videos about French culture / food / differences as well (that's actually how I started watching your channel). The list goes on but I'm going to stop now because this comment is getting way too long and I'm beginning to sound a bit stalkerish I suppose :D But this video proves it! I relate to almost everything from your list. Especially dancing. :/ I even gave it a shot some years ago when I started going to swing dance lessons...and then failed misereably :D But also being bad at sports, painting my nails, being out of practice when it comes to wearing high heels and therefore avoiding it at all costs (although teenage me used to do it every day)...and probably being bad at baking /cooking as well although I'd really like to believe I get the occasional win from time to time. (Overall I've come to terms with the fact that my boyfriend is the better cook in the house and I take comfort from the fact that he's French :D )
Love your confessions! Haha, I'm horrible at dancing as well because I just can't. :P Since you just mentioned about blogging or vlogging, I think I'll steal your idea of 10-things-I'm-BAD-at some time later to blog about. *wink*
I am godawful at cooking/baking as well. I HATE cooking and can never think of meals to make. And my sense of direction and spatial awareness is also horrific.
This is really weird, but I’m TERRIBLE at finding things! Not places, but physical objects in my house. For example, say I’m looking for a specific pair of shorts in a drawer, I’ll empty it out 3 times and not find them, hunt the whole house, and then someone else will go to the same drawer and pull them out straight away. It’s so annoying and I swear these items just hide themselves from me 🙈
Hannah Griffiths Haha I know people who have that trouble too!! You’re definitely not alone 😅
Hannah Griffiths Omg SAME!
General tip for anyone who reads this and may not be very good at football (soccer). The secret to football is to play it based of your instincts when you start overthinking it. It becomes immensely more difficult. But play it instinctively and you find that even playing with complete strangers who speak a different language isn’t difficult.
Also I can’t dance but or cook. But I am doubly bad because I still boast about my ‘talent in these areas’.
I'm bad at sports except for biking, swimming and running. I'm bad at drawing and music and dancing. I'm bad at speaking spanish or any languages other than English. And I'm bad at things such that is way too adventurous too.
Great video!
Chris Turton Thanks!!
Omg the video quality 😱😱😱😻
could you do a video like this one in your channel, we would love it. I met you waching andrea's channel.
NonStopParis Thanks 😃😃
I love this video idea!!!!!! I'm totally going to steal it. Ha ha. Ah I can totally relate to the being bad at keeping secrets! I always find it so hard to wait until Harry's birthday to give him his presents. Ha ha. And we actually have a tradition now where we buy each other a small gift to open on Christmas Eve as well as our Christmas Day gift so that I don't cave and give away all the surprises before Christmas! Ha ha. I am SOOOOO bad at anything to do with math! And I cannot catch a ball at all!!!
Holly of all trades Yes, you should totally make a video like this!! I like that Christmas tradition, maybe I should try that too :D
While I am a terrible dancer I am awesome with maps and directions!
Definitely bad at painting my nails too! I do the same thing. Paint em horribly, jump in the shower, and bam! You've got a salon quality manicure. Haha
Tiffany Lyn Exactly! I’m glad I’m not the only one 😅
OMG! I'm affraid Of needles tOo, althOugh I lOoooove watching hOrrOr mOvies! that's awkward, 'cuz everytime I have tO dO sOme analysis I end up fainting!
I hate needles too and by extension all bugs who have "needles" like hornet and bees I just run or hide when I see one of them near me ;_; . Well second I'm not good when it comes to pronounce th/gh sounds even though I do "English studies" (I know I should go to an English speaking country but unlike you I'm afraid to go too far from home >< ).
ps: love how you did your hair, it's sooooo cute ♥_♥
You’re talking at the beginning about the Spanish UA-cam community, and I was wondering what Spanish channels could you recommend me ? As I want to improve my Spanish
Chloé Demuynck My favorites are RoEnLaRed and Luzu 😊
Ha ha, you want things to be done quickly... that's the way you talk ! :-)
For the things I'm so bad at, I can say that I forget everything everytime, I forget what I need to do, where I put my stuff, what I've said or what I want to say, who did I say this or that and all those things. I can forget to put my shoes when I go outside. And then I'm like "Why my feet are so cold?" and ohw, I've forgot my shoes, and honestly, not a good idea. And I'm terrible for sing which is so frustrating because I am a huge fan of music, I'm a dancer, I listen to music all my day since I'm very very young, and being good at singing is one of my dream, but I'm terrible for that 😢 (hope my english isn't so bad..)
Madame Nothing Oh no, it sounds like we have the opposite problem when it comes to music/dancing! Let me assure you, though, that we non-dancers are very jealous of people with good dancing skills 😉
Andrea Heckler and dancer are jealous of people with good singing skills! That's a kind of fun fact! 😂
Abroad or on my home town my mapping and environment system sucks. Totally damn. I can't remember shit. No joke. If i drive on a route once or twice it's still hard to remember the whole thing for me.
EnglishMannInNewYork 😅 I still have trouble in my own town too. It’s so sad! Haha
Haha, I'm also very bad at finding places on map but actually with gps and map I do it very good, but when it comes to finding something without using gps - it's a complete disaster. I also was very bad at feeling the rhythm, I'm not professional musician as you but I used to play violin and piano, and my bad point always was rhythm, though when I started playing drums it actually became very easy, so the moral is that everyone can learn to be good at something even if he or she doesn't have some "talent", go ahead and upload dancing videos :)
Needles scared me to death
glael thoolan 😅
You look so cute in pig tails 😄 How did I not see this video when you posted it? Stupid UA-cam...
I am also a musician and singer, but I neither get the clue of dancing 😅 And I’m neither a good actor
Sanna A I’m not sure how great I am at acting, but I can’t keep a straight face at all! Sooo comedy definitely isn’t my calling 😂
I can't sports! I could never sports!
"I'm bad at doing anything risky!" Omigod same. "Okay, but you moved to the UK when you didn't know anybody, and..." Yeah! You did do those things! You're pretty brave.
I have no patience for patience.
I'm bad at directions and maps! I've lived in the same place my whole life, and I still don't know the street names.
I cannot my nails. I can paint pictures and I paint custom Funko pop dolls, but my nails are attached to me? One time when I was in middle school, I tried to paint my nails (even though I knew I couldn't), and I was just like, "maybe I'll just paint my hand blue, and then use nail polish remover after to remove the nail polish from the parts of my hand that aren't nails," but it turned out we did not have any nail polish remover in the house, so I just ended up with blue hands.
I like heels. I don't wear them frequently. I have a pair that I wear when I don't have to walk places (like if I'm going to a restaurant or a movie, and I just have to sit mostly.) They're not super high though.
I'm probably bad at those types of secrets. My 3-year-old nephew called me into a room earlier and told me he had to tell me a secret. And the secret was like, "Do you like dinosaurs?" and I've already told 3 people (plus the Internet just now).
I hate needles. My sisters are unfazed by them, but they make me so uncomfortable. (Needles make me uncomfortable, not my sisters.)
If you don't mind me saying: You look super cute in this video. Your hair and makeup, are super cute, and that shirt is a really good color on you.
PS: Do you like dinosaurs?
The Ghoul In The Attic Thanks!! Haha and yes, I like dinosaurs - although less so when I try to imagine them with feathers like they probably were 😜
Oh God, am I you? I can keep secrets and I’m ok with needles, but other than that I’m you. I particularly suck at spacial awareness so much so that I won’t even give directions to strangers in my home town. If they ask me where the X is, I apologise and say I’m not from here. 😳🤥 And I’m REALLY bad with numbers.
LYNN STEWART haha I’m always so nervous when people ask me for directions! I want to help but I’m afraid to even try, in case I just confuse them 😂
I have terrible feature not to notice things just infront of me. I do not understand why. :)
Sergei Litovko Maybe taking pictures could help you? I find that when I stop to take a picture, I pause a bit longer to admire. Also, I’m a bit addicted to Instagram...but that’s beside the point 😜
Are those hazel eyes. It’s kind of hard to tell.
Followmybliss2013 Moreso brown/green
You like to move quickly?... So, how do you do when lunch with entirely french people? They enjoy waste their life in lunch!!!
Is watching lord of the ring such a terrible experience?
#1...Paris has great restaurants. #2...Sports/shmorts. #3...nothing riskier than baring your soul. #4...hmmmm #5...right side/left side of the brain...so what? #6...nails are a non-issue. #7 you will have healthy feet when you are older. #8...don't play poker! #9...get sick once and you will deal with it. #10...watch Elaine on an old episode of Seinfeld. It is obvious you are a bad person. I could not even make a list of things like this because there are too many to chose from...but you could relate to this. For the last15 years I have spent at least a month in Paris and my French is merde. All of my friends prefer I speak English so they can practice theirs
tps607 I don’t understand your comment. How is it “obvious” that I’m a “bad person” from this...?
the point is, you are NOT a bad person
I'm terribly uncoordinated and a bit clumsy, also the last 10 to 12 years my memory has gone way down hill.
Charles Stacy II I trip up the stairs on a near-weekly basis, so I can relate 😜
