I live in Saint-Denis, France, now often called Paris-Saint-Denis because Paris has spilled over into us, and we have a border contiguous with Paris. Saint-Denis is so, SO happening, and I have loved it for 16 years, since I immigrated to France from the USA in search of healthcare.
There are bad things here, which I fight: monopolies, apathy, indifference, building management companies, quality of life issues, bullies, litterbugs, drug sellers in my nabe, people and the planet being exploited and harmed, et cetera.
Look up "Paris Syndrome" on your 'net searcher. People have this zany Hollywood idea of Paris, and they save to visit here, and when they see how it really is, they get very ill. It's a recognized mental illness in Japan, for example.
This was filmed Easter Sunday in my nabe, a quartier chaud, meaning rough area. Easter is really done on Mondays here, though, as in England -- to get a day off, IF we are lucky enought to have jobs!
Please check out the other channel I run, CUTECATFAITH. NICEDAYDOGWORLD should be up soon, connected with my charity.
LISA INC. (EURL) is my going concern. I do lots of stuff, and now, it's official! ART, most of all.
I've got three movies in pre-production, with Melvin Van Peebles directing, more books coming out, et cetera. You can still order BIKINI GIRL from GEM Books in Philadelphia. They have an online service now.
Here, I had to stop filming right away, because the business owner asked me to. That's fine.

May we count you IN?
@wepollock Nice to hear from you! I have a couple you might love of the nabe, but as they are 11 minutes long, they will be on Dailymotion later today. French etiquette, all in my nabe, and more of a tour of the nabe and the front area of my apartment. On Dailymotion, if you type "LisaFalour," you should find my stuff! It's different from what I put on YouTube. Have a great week!
Setting up myself as a going concern is very interesting!

@izzyizod We're just on the same wavelength. It's great. I love YouTube and Facebook a LOT! I've got this huge business being set up now, LISA, INC. (EURL)! I have six books in the pipeline (the first by BOOK WHISPERER PRESS -- THE FRANK LETTERS), and three movies in pre-production! My agent, RicHernandez, is at +33(0)698001705. We will be filming concurrently, all three movies, in NYC and La Plaine Saint-Denis. Melvin Van Peebles, directing with Nick Zedd on one of the films! Call!
