Whatever you decide to do with your channel is not up to us, do what makes you feel comfortable, happy, and excited. If that means stepping back a bit and producing less videos but feeding your creative juices, then so be it. We’ ll keep watching girl 😊
I selfishly want even more KZread content now that you’re in this fun place and fun time in life, but do what feels best. We’ll be here
Paris content: I'd like to see - museums - cafes and parks with friends - getaways to the country oder seaside - your filming routine - your favorite spots/nice places to run in Paris Looove your videos no matter how "interesting" they are ❤
Elena you are never boring,no matter if it is a chatty vlog or travel vlog or just like this a cozy drinking coffee,eating good,walking or cycling around Paris you make my day!!! And you post when you feel like it in your own pace because we are not going anywhere.... You listen to what you need,feel is right!!!💖🫖☕🥧🍵🥐🕯📓📚🖋Warm hugs coming your way
AM I THE ONLY ONE WHO NEEDS MORE DETAILS ON THIS GORGEOUS APARTMENT?! The furnishings?! Elena, we are so happy you're loving life in Paris. Keep the content coming- not boring.

Yes I immediately recognised it as Nathaniel Drew’s apartment from the kitchen tiles. His renovation videos were great.

@@mindframegallery3128I’ll have to look this up because I’m unfamiliar with him!
Boring content? Girl you're always on the move, and you take us with you! That's not boring!
Never bored by the content and does not feel repetitive! :) Personally, I don't actually enjoy the short form reels or a super pre-planned, narrative style YT video as much as I do a more casual vlog like this one (which can feel more intimate and vulnerable), where we're just with you for the day. Excited for more about Paris!
I am never bored with your content! It’s so soothing and inspirational and it really makes me enjoy my day to day life more. I also love the whole aesthetic of your videos, it’s a certain feeling that I get when I am watching them. Contentment, enjoyment…I am sorry to hear you feel like taking a break but I understand. Take good care of you and I hope you will be back soon 🤗
Ooh you are in Nathaniel Drew's apartment! Hope you have a great time, love your vlogs!

I thought the same thing!!!
Congratulations on taking the leap! I've been living in Paris for 3 years and I remember those vulnerable early days. Now I'm more comfrotable doing things alone at my own pace: reading, visiting, sitting at a cafe for hours with no pressure to keep ordering or leave. In terms of your content, I'd love to see how it feels to be steeped in Parisian culture after living in the States for so many years.
Elena! Congrats on moving to Paris! We don’t blame you if you need a bit of a YT break. This is a BIG transition! Maybe take the summer to explore the city and share your findings with us in a month or two! best restaurants, coffee shops, museums etc. Whatever direction you take, we’re here for it! 🫶🏼
I would LOVE to see you settle in in Paris, you are living the dream of mine, and just listening how happy you are, and the little things you discover about the city, it brings me so much value and joy. A break for re inspiration is so understandable though, but if you choose to blog your first weeks/months I’ll be here watching
I found your channel 2 years ago when I was planning my first trip to Paris and its been one of my fav channels ever since! Its so hard to find original and beautifully made vlogs. I think theres so much “short” videos out there and what I love about yours is that they are longer but have so much value and beauty! I would def miss them but I also understand what its like to be uninspired!
Just seeing you live your life is inspiring! I have been loving watching you explore new places, styles, interests and what (new) things you find important!❤️keep doing you, we love that you share hour life however much and often with us!
I absolutely love vlogs in this style that you do, and I'd love to see more of you exploring Paris! Especially if there are days you're just working, I'd love to hear more about how you get through longer, quieter work days in the city since that's a lot of life for many of us! I also love your documentary-style videos :) We'll support whatever you choose to do!!
Please don't take a break! Your videos inspire me so much. Despite the long journey on KZread or the lack of creativity I think your videos aren't repetitive because they show different stages of your life. For instante specially for you might seem just the same but it's part of the daily life and of the evolution. You can just post not so regularly! But at the end its your decision :)
Can totally understand and respect if you need a break, but if you’re asking if it’s boring then no! Your videos are cute and qualitative and now you’re in Paris which is super great.
I would be interested in "boring" everyday vlogs from Paris from you!
isn't that Nathaniel Drews place?
So great to see you upgrading and growing in life and to see your dreams becoming true!
You’re back! 🤗 I am so happy, I love your content.
I swear you always post at exactly the time I need to see your video! Going through a new phase of life as well, so it's comforting to hear your internal monologue going through yours. 💓 If you need to take a proper pause from KZread to soak it all in, I say go for it, and we'll be excited to see what you feel called to capture when you return!
5 yrs of growing up with you and the vlogs never got boring.wait for them eagerly and watch them leisurely is my most fav thing to do and makes me so truly happy. Please do make the more stylized content ideas that you have but please also keep doing the weekly or weekend vlogs and now that you are in paris, i can watch a long video every day. Thank you for all your creations!
I’d love to hear more about your experience applying for your French visa!
Your vlog is always great. The images, music, thoughts. I love everything.
Paris, the art of it all! You can make it better. Look forward to your new adventures.
You're vlogs are definetily not boring!!!
You are never boring. And please don’t take a long break. But whatever you do, I will be here when you get back. ❤❤❤
Don't take a break while in Paris. I'd like to see your vlogs as you go around Paris.
Been seriously considering moving to another country (preferably somewhere in Europe) in the next few years and have been stuck on where to even begin planning that. A vid about your experience with moving would be so helpful!
i love your videos Elena!! You arre NEVER boring !! you are such an inspiration to me .sending lots of love💙
Wait….Am I tripping, or is that Nathan’s beautiful apartment? 😍
I have been watching since the CA days, and I am excited to see what your next chapter will bring! ❤
never boring! I would love more longer form Paris content!! So excited to learn about your travels in Paris :))
would love to see maybe daytrips around france, fave spots in paris, how you meet friends, differences of paris vs nyc, stuff like that! I’m also going there for a week soon so love seeing this content for inspo ❤
Always excited when I see a new Elena Taber vlog 🫶 love whatever you post
No please dont stop i love just vlogs I love to see paris
The first few seconds of the video made me subscribe to your channel, your content is not boring at allllll
love your content so much, you never show up in my algorithm so i just checked in and you posted this after i had binged your older stuff. do what makes you feel happy, i create content too and sometimes i need a break so do you and enjoy paris!!!🇫🇷
I love your apartment! Currently redecorating my house, this is definite inspo!😍
I agree with what others are saying, give yourself time to adjust and rest, you need it ❤
I would love a video on moving to another country. How much you need to save, did you have to get a visa? It's my dream to live in another country for a year or more and would love to know what this process looks like.

She talked about getting her Paris visa in a previous video. I believe it took 6 months to attain.
I was just re watching your old vlogs because you haven't uploaded in a while and here you are! 🥹
hi elena
I love watching your videos they are amazing ❤
Hey personally I love your vlog. I find them really inspiring and creative. I feel like a longer video on youtube shows us way more about you life in paris then a short form on tiktok
Noooo! Please don’t stop posting your videos! I look forward to them! But I understand this is your life and you must do what is best for you, you should enjoy it how you see fit. ❤
Selfishly I would love to see more content of your travels. I have been feeling the urge to move and your videos have contributed to my decision to move across the country and start fresh in a new place.
I personally watch your videos for scenic moments with relaxing music 😍⚘♡
I stayed in Paris on too much of tight budget in awful accommodation which hindered my experience. So nice seeing someone else's enjoyable time
Enjoyed this quick video. So many wonderful shots. I loved the garden where you went for tea, and loved that bookstore, wow!. I too recently started a new journey. After many years in NYC I now find myself on the beautiful island of Puerto Rico. I have no idea what I'm going to do, I will just take it one day at a time and see what happens. Good luck to both of us.
great video Elena!!!
I just love your vlogs and it gave a vibe! :)
Hiiii, as a French (from the south east not Paris), living in Toronto for the past 10 years and sharing my own experience on social ... I LOOOOOVE watching other people move to my country! About your French, let's be honest it's a hard language, but now you are surrounded by French you'll learn faster. I moved to Toronto with a broken English and after 6 months I was already feeling so much better. I actually about the reality of moving somewhere speaking fluently the language. You might feel lonely sometimes because you don't understand everything around you, even stupid because you can't respond as fast as you would in English. But just want you to know: its normal and I felt the same! But now I'm fluent in English and can't imagine a life where I didn't speak English! Sending love and support from Toronto!
miss girl thank you for the outfit details - that jacket was a big gate release
I love your videos. It is interesting to see you and how you are growing, your style, the beauty of the places you live. Your life is a beautidul art.
Finally the wait is over, Elena has posted💕💕🎀
we're not going anywhere!! take all the time off you need. have fun exploring Paris 🥐✨
I love seeing everything and anything you post but if it's not creatively stimulating for you, take a breather ❤ I find these kinds of daily vlogging/ slow life videos so calming and comforting so don't be afraid of it being boring! I just wanted to share a couple personal Paris recommendations: - The Petit Palais is free to look around and is gorgeous as you enter, there's also so much to see downstairs -Maslow is a seasonal vegetarian tapas style restaurant and has some amazing bites! Go with a friend or 2 so you can order lots and share!
I love love love Paris. I feel like a break might give you some creative ideas (our brain needs downtime!). I would love to see more of -museums in Paris - different neighbourhoods and their history/visiting appartments - cultural differences you've noticed I feel like you shine best when you can deep dive in to history/culture. So i hope you can give yourself some time to do exactly that and find your flow again🙌
A little summer break from KZread to live the best life in Paris sounds like a fab idea 😊😊
I love the travel vlogs! And just seeing daily life in other parts of the world :)
Elena, if you are feeling like you need a break do it!! But I love your simple videos of you doing stuff around town, reflections on life, you taking care of yourself and having sweet moments by yourself and w friends!!
What do you mean you make boring content? This vlog is the proof that you are the contrary. So so cool, especially the fact you took us on a few days vlog.
I would love what you packed/ your current capsule wardrobe! I’m going off on a similar adventure and find it so hard to consolidate my style into a couple suitcases!
Congrats Paris is beautiful. Your apartment looks amazing. You are always lucky to find nice apartments. I visited Paris last year. It's one of the places I would live if I was interested in learning French.
That all black outfit was 🔥🙌🏻
I appreciate you and thank you for making content.
Doing more videos on the history and culture of France would be cool. Perhaps one comparing the cafe scene between New York and Paris?
Oh and would love more about your language learning process!
Le Marais and Popincourt is where I spend the majority of my time…so many good bars, cafes, and restaurants
Don’t let your mindset limit you with French!! A lot of language learning is really about mindset, and it sounds like you have a bit of a fixed mindset about not feeling naturally good at learning languages. I moved to Spain as an English speaker and working on shifting my mindset to a growth mindset has made a huge different in fluency. Channel the confidence of a white man speaking a second language and you will fly 🦅
I recognize this apartment, love a KZreadrs crossover! Congrats on the new chapter, mon ami! 💗
You do you Elena. We’re on the ride regardless
No such thing as boring content on this channel! I don't know if this can help, but I thought your Manhattan series was great, and it would be awesome to let others show you around different Parisian arrondissements or even regions in France!
I’m new to your channel and as I watch you at the start of this video acclimatize I’m thinking it would be nice if you met Moya… and lo and behold who pops into frame. I am glad she is in your circle of Parisian friends. So excited for you embarking on this new life’s journey. Btw, loving your apartment, charming in every way minus the walk up. Certainly not cramped. Thank you for sharing.
never boring! but breaks are key~!
i love your videooos
Loved this video very much!!!Please tell us more about how you found the apartment and how you decided on a furnished apartment.
Beautiful! so is the city :)
Moyaaa ♥
thank you for sharing you thoughts and moments of your life :) I personally will be also happy to listen to some stories regarding your experience of meeting new people - your thoughts and feelings about socializing in a new country in general; maybe also some work-related experience if you collaborate in any way with locals (i'm thinking of moving abroad and it is very heartwarming to get some honest insights) thank you! and i wish you the smoothest and fulfilling settlement in Paris :)
nathan's apartment 😍
More Paris vlogging! ❤
Stayed in Arrondissement 2eme just recently. Fun to explore a part of Paris I’d never been to before
Living that Emily in Paris Life!! ☕️
Hey Elena- awesome you for taking on French and France! You’ll get it all in your own time;)
Hi ! Do not worry about gloomy weather in Paris, if you decide to settle for a long time here. This is a weird summer so far, it’s not usually like that 😉
Oh you met Moya Mawhinney, she does great content too from Paris. In fact that apartment looks so familiar?
you should check out interesting hideouts and places to go in paris that are off the beaten path. lasts time i was there I went to a party by the canal where they played italo disco music, or went to the oldest market in paris too.
I love you so much ❤
Would love to see more food options in Paris!!!
I think blogs like how to spend a weekend in paris focussing on different arrondisements would be great Or how about videos like you did for circling the Mediterranean where you meet locals
I love Paris
It's Nathaniel Drew apartment :)) Have a great time in Paris❤❤

whoahh I wasn't aware of that!! How cool 🤩
Thank you for the cute vlog as always 💕 An idea for future content series: apartment tours in different parts of Paris! Like the ones you did in NYC "what 3000€ per month gets you in Montmartre" for example
U are a princess Elena ❤
you are not boring with your content. I would love Instagram videos as well, but watching you, just being yourself on KZread, and going through life, is really inspiring and relatable. Please give us more Paris content, it is lovely :) Also maybe you can make some content, how do you choose your clothing items? You have quite good taste, and it's not that because you're trendy, it is basically you know what goes well with your personality, and body. And I think everyone has something to learn from that :) Anyways, you are doing great, being very inspiring and real, and I love your content :)
Hello Elena 🎀 Can you give us more infos on how you found your appartement please ! That’d be vvvv helpful 😌😌 mercii
Apartamento series in Paris!!!
