00:00Didn't see you there.

00:18Oh, hello. It's springtime, baby. You guys may or may not know about me that spring is kind of by far my favorite season.

00:28Specifically spring verging on summer. We're talking May, June. We're not quite there yet, but close enough.

00:33And of course, we're going to go hit some of my favorite New York spots now that we are no longer in the dead of winter.

00:39And obviously, you're coming with me. Don't even kid yourself at first. I have something embarrassing to tell you guys.

00:44I was just micing myself up inside, i.e. putting my little microphone on.

00:48And the way it works, like the cord runs down my shirt and then it attaches to, you know, you try to make it look kind of discreet.

00:53So I kind of have it here or sometimes in the back. And anyways, it reminded me of this time.

00:58I was doing a real estate tour. I've done a couple of them on my channel.

01:01And I don't know if I was nervous or what it was. I don't think I was nervous.

01:04But anyway, I was in front of the real estate agents in this really, really, really nice property.

01:10And I was there micing myself up in front of them.

01:12And somehow, some way, the mic pack ends up through my fly.

01:17Like, this is how it ended up.

01:18And then I remember trying to play it off, like, oh, that'll work. I'll just go like, no, it won't work, actually.

01:25So anyway, I ended up unbuttoning my pants and fixing it, but I just don't know how that happened.

01:29Now let's go explore New York a bit, shall we?

01:30Coffee, coffee, coffee.

01:39Hot Americano.

01:40Whoa, whoa, whoa.

01:42What?

01:42Springtime, baby. Time for cold beverages.

01:45Oh, that's true. I can make it nice to Americano.

01:47No, no, no. I'm talking something nice and smooth.

01:50Cold brew?

01:50Yes, ma'am.

01:51Did you make that?

01:52Sure did.

01:53Wait, how did you get into my house?

01:55Details don't matter, sweetheart.

01:56Okay.

01:57Do you like cold brew?

01:58Yeah, I freaking love cold brew. It's just like $8 anywhere that I go and I've never made it myself.

02:02I've got you covered.

02:03Oh, so, besides breaking and entering.

02:05Well, Trade has you covered.

02:07Trade?

02:07Here, try this.

02:08Yeah, Trade Coffee. Coffee subscription company, you know.

02:11Oh, yeah, actually.

02:12Well, they've teamed up with 15 expert roasters to source the best beans and make a killer cold brew kit.

02:18Wow, this is smooth.

02:19Sure is, and guess what?

02:20What?

02:21For a limited time, Trade is giving away a free Hario cold brewer when you sign up for a cold brew subscription

02:26at drinktrade.com slash taylorbelle.

02:29What was that?

02:30Drinktrade.com slash taylorbelle to get a free cold brew kit with a cold brew subscription.

02:34You got it.

02:35That's drinktrade.com slash taylorbelle.

02:37Good, isn't it?

02:37Yes, it is.

02:38But now, time for you to go.

02:40Okay, fine.

02:40Yeah, I really hope you love me too.

02:44Yeah, I really hope you love me too.

02:53Spring.

02:53Wow, it is nice.

02:58Spoiler alert, you'll see I'm wearing my jacket.

03:00It's still quite chilly, but it's sunny and it's beautiful.

03:04And that's all I can ask about.

03:05Well, well, well, if it isn't my trusty Steve.

03:11You guys know I wear a helmet now.

03:13Oh, yes, I remember your bad dress and how you turn my mind completely due to such a mess so easily.

03:27And it really can't make no surprise.

03:30It's beautiful.

03:31So many blooming flowers.

03:32You see that smooth docking process?

03:47I don't know how this footage is going to come out, but what a beautiful ride that just was.

03:50It's so cute.

03:55Did you guys see that cavalier?

03:59Oh, oh my goodness.

04:03Like a little bear.

04:05Guys, there is unlimited footage to get.

04:08Every corner looks freaking like a movie set.

04:11It's crazy.

04:13It is so beautiful.

04:17Fantastic cocktails.

04:19Pretty much as good as they get.

04:21Hi, how are you?

04:22Good.

04:22Good, thanks.

04:23Do you guys just have regular drip coffee?

04:25Yeah.

04:25I'll do a small part of those, please.

04:28Yes.

04:28For here, please.

04:30For here, please.

04:35Thank you so much.

04:36Oh my God, you guys.

04:40I didn't get footage, but as I was sitting in there drinking my coffee, I started chatting

04:44up the woman next to me.

04:46She has lived here in the heart of West Village since 1977.

04:50And she's got that incredible rent-stable-ized situation.

04:53And I told her, I am jealous.

04:55We were talking about the weather and how it's still kind of chilly in the spring, blah,

04:58blah, blah.

04:58And then I brought up how cold this winter was, and she totally agreed.

05:01And then I asked her what the coldest winter she's ever had in New York was.

05:03And she said that there was an insane blizzard, like, over 30 years ago, where they literally

05:08closed the Lincoln Tunnel.

05:09Her aunt, who lived in Jersey, had to crash on her couch for a while.

05:12And this is so cool.

05:13I love talking to New Yorkers who have been here for a really long time.

05:16They all have very good stories and experiences to share.

05:19Anyways, fun fact.

05:20I was actually going to not come to West Village because I feel like I come here in every single

05:24video.

05:25But then I docked my bike in West Village, and I was like, I'm not leaving.

05:29It's so pretty.

05:33Hey, let's catch up a little bit, shall we?

05:42So I'm back in the city after almost a full month of traveling, which is a huge privilege.

05:47We'll talk about it in a second.

05:48But started in New York, obviously.

05:50Went home to California to see the parents.

05:52And then from there, flew to Korea.

05:55After that, Vietnam.

05:56And then Taiwan for a wedding of a very, very good YouTube friend of mine, Chloe Shi, who

06:01I'm sure a lot of you guys know.

06:03So much fun.

06:04I only knew a handful of people there, other creators, but had an absolute blast.

06:08And Chloe really knows how to freaking put on a production.

06:11Let me tell you that.

06:12After Taiwan, I went back to California for a day or two and then to Houston for another

06:17wedding.

06:17I was a plus one at this wedding.

06:18But my God, was it fun?

06:20And it actually wasn't in Houston proper.

06:22It was in the countryside on a friend's ranch and it was, oh my God, it was stunning.

06:27Anyway, I had a thought.

06:29So while I was gone during this month of travel, I worked plenty.

06:32I filmed a ton of videos, which I'm so excited to edit.

06:35Those will come out like mid next month.

06:36But for the most part, I was able to just get up and go travel for a month.

06:40And I don't know, sometimes I verge on the cusp of everything I talk about in my vlogs being

06:44about how grateful I am for my job.

06:46But gosh darn it, I have to say it.

06:48If you told Taylor in management consulting two years ago that she'd be able to just

06:52get up kind of whenever, go see the world, travel with my mom, travel with friends and

06:56yeah, work while I'm there.

06:57But like, I want to work.

06:58I don't know, man.

06:59I just don't know how I got so lucky.

07:00It's a good life.

07:01Anyway, all that being said, I am thrilled to be back in New York City.

07:06It's still the best city in the world.

07:07I've never actually been in there before.

07:21Actually, I have, but it's been a long time.

07:23It's like a very famous news magazine store in the West Village.

07:27Oh my God.

07:27And here's a little attached coffee shop.

07:30Fun.

07:31I do not need another one though.

07:33No, I do not.

07:34Mine wants the same exact way.

07:41Anyway, I just tracked them down and fed them for like several minutes.

07:45I can't help myself.

07:46It's an addiction.

07:47It really is.

07:52And finally, would this be a Taylor Bell video if I didn't take you to this corner?

07:57No, it would not.

07:58Famously, my favorite corner in New York City, me and many, many other people.

08:04This is Liv Tyler's old place and it's just so insanely beautiful.

08:08And I know what it looks like on the inside because I've watched the Architectural Digest

08:12tour of it like 30,000 times.

08:14My next musing.

08:22That's kind of what my vlogs are.

08:24I show you New York City and then you have to listen to my musings.

08:27But that's kind of-ish what I'm about to talk about, which is sharing my musings.

08:31So I've talked about this before, but I am doubling down on how great it is to share your

08:38interests with other people.

08:39Oh, so cute.

08:40Oh my god.

08:42Did you guys see that?

08:43And again, it's just one of my favorite parts about my job.

08:46Like having this channel talking about things that I find interesting has already deepened

08:51existing relationships that I had where maybe a friend of mine will watch the video and they'll

08:55really resonate with something that I said and then they'll text me about it afterwards.

08:59More and more of my friends are doing this, whether they're writing like sub stacks if they're

09:03good writers or writing movie reviews.

09:05Look at all these flowers.

09:08So pretty.

09:08Or they design like a quarterly magazine and source submissions from their friends.

09:13So my point is, if you're even considering doing this or you really want to start something

09:17kind of creative or whatever, just do it.

09:19At the very least, it will help you reconnect with some maybe like creative hobby that you

09:24used to like doing.

09:25Especially if you don't get to flex that muscle in your job, which is the case for a lot of

09:29people.

09:29I just think it's a great outlet.

09:30And very recently I received a very, very cool byproduct of sharing my enthusiasm for

09:37a particular institution.

09:38I'll show you when we get home, but share your interests.

09:42Alright, as much as I would love to meander around West Village for the rest of my entire

09:46life, we actually have to get home for a really cool thing.

09:50And I'll show you guys.

09:52And then we also have fun plans later tonight.

09:54Kind of a packed day.

09:55Like chill, but packed at the same time.

09:57You know what I mean?

09:58And as always, obviously you're coming with me.

10:02Duh.

10:02I really hope you love me too.

10:04Yeah, yeah, I really hope you love me too.

10:08Yeah, yeah, I really hope you love me too.

10:12Yeah, yeah, I really hope you love me too.

10:14Guess who it is.

10:16Trust this dude.

10:20Hello.

10:21So here's a cool one for you.

10:23Oh, don't mind my huge donate trash bag.

10:25A couple of months ago, I was talking with a friend about what brands would be like my dream

10:31brands to work with.

10:31And I was like, Apple would be my dream brand, but I don't think they work with creators and

10:36that would just be like one of my wildest dreams.

10:39You know, fast forward a couple of weeks later, I get an email from Apple and I open it and

10:44I'm like, that's not real.

10:46You get a lot of scam emails, you know?

10:47And then I look up the sender of the email on LinkedIn.

10:52Definitely real.

10:53And then there I am a couple of weeks later at an Apple event, getting to look at some

10:58of the new products, get my hands on them, get demos.

11:01It's like so cool.

11:03I don't even consider myself.

11:04Well, I'm definitely not a tech channel, but I will say through having this job, I've

11:09definitely become more technical.

11:10Like I geek out on laptop specs.

11:14Video editing has become like a second language to me and I love it so, so much.

11:17But anyway, I'm about to chat with Apple again in just a little bit.

11:22Before we do that though, something I want to show you guys.

11:24So I get home from my month of travel, right?

11:27I'm here opening the PR packages and just whatever came while I was gone for almost full

11:33month.

11:33And then I get this package.

11:36And remember how I said there was a cool byproduct of me sharing my enthusiasm for a specific

11:40institution on the interwebs?

11:42Well, I got an email from someone right before I left for my trip saying that they also loved

11:47Trader Joe's.

11:49And not only that they loved it, but that they literally wrote a book talking about

11:53all the different art and cool, unique things about Trader Joe's.

11:57And she went to a hundred plus different locations to get the information for this book.

12:01She asked if she could send me a copy.

12:03And I said, I would be honored if you would send me a copy.

12:07So first of all, if that's not the cutest wrapping you've ever seen, I don't know what

12:10it is.

12:10I thought we'd open it together.

12:12So cool.

12:13Oh my God.

12:13This is a Trader Joe's card.

12:15A card from Trader Joe's.

12:16Very on the nose.

12:17Dear Taylor, thank you for all the joy and positivity you bring into this world through

12:21your videos.

12:22I hope you enjoy my book, The Art of Trader Joe's.

12:24Wishing you all the best.

12:26Julie.

12:26Of course, I'm going to link all this stuff.

12:28See what I mean?

12:28It actually still blows my mind that this could come of sharing stuff on the internet.

12:32That is just so cool.

12:33Thank you, Julie.

12:34I haven't even opened your book yet and I'm like emotional.

12:37Okay.

12:37Let's see.

12:38Oh my God.

12:39The Art of Trader Joe's.

12:40Discovering the Hidden Art Gems of America's Favorite Grocery Store by Julie Averbach.

12:45I hope I'm saying that right.

12:46Wow.

12:46That is so cool.

12:49Oh, and an inscription.

12:51Taylor, from one Trader Joe's enthusiast to another.

12:53I hope you enjoy the book.

12:54Check out page 96 and 97 for the East Village store.

12:58She knows because that's the one I toured.

13:00It's my favorite location.

13:01Wait, this is insane.

13:02It shows the art on specific Trader Joe's items and the inspiration.

13:07Like this is digging deep, y'all.

13:09Oh my God.

13:09Julie, you're a beast.

13:11Okay.

13:12Let me go to the East Village location.

13:13Oh, flipped right to it.

13:15East Village details.

13:16Oh my God.

13:16Yes.

13:17So this is the map and this is what I showed in my video.

13:20Peter Arkell's drawings that show spotlights of different East Village neighborhood gems.

13:25This is just so, so cool.

13:26My God.

13:27Share your interests.

13:29Share your work.

13:30Thank you, Julie.

13:31This is, I'm blown away by your work.

13:33Great call.

13:41Apple's so cool.

13:42Anyways, we're headed to Brooklyn and I'm running a little bit late so I just called a neighbor.

13:50On the outside looking in, I really wasn't sure what I was getting.

13:57Between the highways on the sea, waiting for something to get to me.

14:04I wasn't sure what I was hoping for.

14:08What's up, vlog?

14:09We just got one of our favorite Thai restaurants in Fort Greene called, all right, how is this

14:15pronounced?

14:15We say suck, but I'm pretty sure it's not suck.

14:20It's suck.

14:20You think it's suck?

14:21So anyway, naturally, we're off to film in there, but a great end to the evening.

14:26Any other fun and spicy questions for me, anonymous friend?

14:29Are you excited for spring?

14:31I am excited for spring.

14:32We're in the spring, but it's freaking cold.

14:35I'm excited for spring summer.

14:36Anything else?

14:37Give me a spicy question.

14:39I have nothing spicy.

14:40Give me something really spicy.

14:42I have nothing spicy.

14:46All right.

14:46Well, like and subscribe.

14:49Until next time.

14:50I had a whole dance in mind, but now I'm nervous.

14:55A like and subscribe dance.

14:57I don't want to do it anymore.

14:59Do it.

15:00No.

15:01No.

15:02The moment's past.

15:04Until next time, turtle out.

15:06Will I ever make a different kind of intro?

15:09Probably not.

15:10I like this one.

15:12At least today I'm going to somersault out of bed.

15:14That's pretty spunky.

15:14Hang on.

15:15I think my camera is smudgy.

15:18Guys, whenever I see a Cavalier King Charles spaniel, I just can't keep, I can't maintain

15:22my focus.

15:23He's coming this way.

15:24Spring foliage.

15:27So cute.

15:27I have one myself.

15:29Oh.

15:30That one's chunky too, just like mine.

15:33Wait, hang on.

15:34That's not a good example.

15:37Spring foliage.

15:38Okay.

15:40Delusional.
