I think many people think they have flu when they in fact don’t. I had influenza when I was 15, I remember that year it was dubbed ‘Killer Flu’ as it took so many people out. It took 6 weeks to recover, 3 of those in bed. Glad you are feeling better. I just had what I think was Covid and am only just feeling back to normal after 13 days which is good as I’m off to Paris in a few days and don’t want to be sick. Beautiful place.
Obviously, you're an aesthete, as am I. And it's not too expensive, but developers are too greedy. Everything now can be replicated with lasers or molds. Nothing has to be carved by hand anymore, unless someone wants to take a purist approach to restoration.
Nicholas, Greetings from the USA; North Carolina - Cornelius / Lake Norman. Would your friend, the owner consider you doing a Part 2 of your Journey at Chateaux de Curzay by WRITING a BOOK similar to the Book for his Hotel in Mexico.....as you will have ALL the necessary photos! Enjoy this journey and thanks for sharing!
They could not have chosen a better person to manage their social media, Nicholas. You have such an eye for beauty, and you will do amazing things for this château.
@@NicolasFairfordsure . Plz continue to post further videos here on u tube about this chateau . The work done in the chateaue is treat for the eyes and u have the eye to highlight that beauty
So glad to see you back and posting. Enjoy your new chateau lifestyle. Don't rush your recovery. I've had Covid six times and it drained my strength and I too lost my sense of taste and smell. It will get better but you must pace yourself. Having Covid is not like having the flu or a cold, it's as if someone pulled the plug out on your energy source. So enjoy your new surroundings and accept the fact that Covid recovery takes time. Wishing you and your loved ones all the best. Hang in there!
I had COVID this summer, at the beginning of July. During my vacation to Florida, I ended up spending half of it sick with COVID. Imagine freezing to the bone in Florida-sleeping in a turtleneck, sweatpants, socks, and with a heating pad. That’s what my COVID experience was like. And to be honest, it's been over a month now, and I'm still not feeling 100%. So I agree with you-COVID is more than just a cold or flu.

I never had covid but this may I got ill after 15 years, fever and pain all over, and I almost forgot how it felt!!! I was miserable. At some point I was looking on line all the worst possible things you could have, just because I didn't know what to do, and I was too tired to do anything but not enough to keep sleeping. I watched the Tv show with Lisa Van der Pump with the new Chateau Rosabelle and loved it. What do you think? Did anyone watch it?
Nicolas!! - Welcome back!! - We missed you terribly!! - so happy you are feeling better - you light up our lives with your stunning presentations & your oh-so-cheerful delightful smile - I noticed your lovely loyal friend Nathan kept quietly in the background - I feel he has a lot of class & is very creative as you - I am really looking forward to how much we are all going to learn from your sophisticated style & tastes - great to see you back - take care.
Nicholas, I'm so glad to see you again and relieved that you have gotten through your Covid ordeal and look to be on the road to feeling much better. What a thrill to have the opportunity to stay at such a luxurious chateau and work with Nathan to bring it to all of us. Everything about it is a feast for the eyes - I especially love the interior architecture and design style. The fabrics and textiles are stunning. It really is sumptuous while still feeling welcoming. Can't wait to see more!
If anyone had to pick the absolutely perfect place at which to recover from your long and difficult illness it would be at this chateau. Looking forward to future videos.
' We are only there for one week per month. Sophie and Peggy are staying at my house whilst we are there, being cared for by our amazing sitter ' that was Nicholas answer
Dear Nicholas I am so grateful you are back and well. I was becoming quite concerned when you disappeared. What a glorious home to regain your strength and vigor in. My uncle owns a home quite similar in the Hamptons in the USA. It is a French chateau type estate
Nicolas ~ thank you for giving us an update as to where you've been. Yes. I always look forward to your videos. Oh, that château is just gorgeous. I am so glad both of you are there. Take care!
Cher Nichola C est un grand plaisir de te revoir ….je ne savais pas que tu étais malade ….j étais moi aussi très mal Tous les vœux de rétablissement…prends bien soin de toi 💖
'We are only there for one week per month. Sophie and Peggy are staying at my house whilst we are there, being cared for by our amazing sitter ' that was Nicholas answer
I have Covid at the moment (4 days and counting). This is no thing like “cold or flu”, much worse! Thankful you’re well and on the other side, Nicolas and thrilled to see your new adventure.❤
I, too currently have Covid! I’m sure we will be back to our healthy selves soon, take care of yourself! Know that I am wishing you a very speedy recovery 🫶
The “real flu” is a lot rougher than what people think is the flu and it depends on the strain. I had the Victorian A strain and it took 5 months to finally feel like I was better and a full year before I could breathe normally, also lost my sense of taste and smell. That was in the 70s.
I had the flu when I was 21 and I couldn’t get out of bed for three weeks, my mother had to help me to go to the bathroom and every time I did try to get out of bed I threw up, the doctor visited twice (that tells you how long ago this episode was!) I lost over a stone in weight and had to convalesce for weeks after. I have also had a bad case of Covid, I also have a weakened immune system, it was bad but nothing compared to that awful time, I got very depressed and like you literally thought I was going to die, it’s so, so nice to feel better ❤️
Great to see you back Nicholas and what a great place to recover. The Château is absolute gorgeous and you look like you belong there. Im sure the owner is delighted to have you both there. Enjoy every minute guys.
Hi Nicolas & Nathan! Oh my goodness, how beautiful is the chateau! Thank you for sharing your news and looking forward to seeing more and following your journey over the next few months!
I agree with whomever said the camera swinging or quickly spanning from one area to another brought on vertigo. But the parts I did watch were beautiful. So glad you are feeling better and will have 5 mos. of BLISS! Wishing you all the best in your new adventure!!
He pans too fast and from left to right to left to right to left to right.... that makes you dizzy and there is also something wrong with his camera. There are really annoying "waves" in the footage, the things he films seem to move in waves. Adds to the feeling of vertigo
Nicolas, thank you for this enjoyable video. I am so glad that you are back to posting videos again. I am so sorry to hear that you had been ill with covid. What a beautiful chateau. I am happy for you to be living and working in such a grand environment. Looking forward to more adventures from the chateau and France. Stay well and safe. Wishing you and Nathan all the best in this new journey. Robert.
Oh no, I’m glad you’re feeling better. I had the same symptoms back when I had Covid. Although I lost my sense of smell also, it’s back but it seems to come and go occasionally and I too love parfums and that really bothered me. Good to see you back!!!
So pleased you’re back Nicolas. Yes I look for your video every week and was wondering what had happened to you. Well it was worth the wait, such an exquisite chateau, out of this world. Really happy you and Nathan found each other. 💕
Dear Nicolas, Ive. been following you since 2021, your voice was my respite during a turbulent time in my personal life. You could be describing salads and Id listen for hours! you are talented and congratulations on all your success!
So glad you are back to full recovery Nicholas Covid is wretched it really messed my fibromyalgia up never been the same since I had Covid but we have to crack on. Waking up everyday in a Chateaux must be amazing it’s all a dream..xxx
Nicholas, honestly, this video was nothing short of breathtaking! I enjoyed everything, and my favorite room...the dining room with the exquisite wooden carvings, and the siting room with the green walls, beautiful. Thank you so much for sharing.
Nicolas, what a charming lovely young man you are. Discovered you on You Tube on TV. You have a new admirer in Half Moon Bay CA. I grew up at boarding school in Richmond Yorkshire. Not American and thinking of returning to my beloved England. God Bless You. You are a joy to watch.
What an incredible opportunity for you two! I feel you are on the avenue of greatness Nicolas, stay on path. Excited to see the coverage of the Chateau.
my heart goes out to you. I have long-term Covid, which has morphed into a couple of other issues and I truly understand. But you were so fortunate to be in a nurturing lovely place where you can heal. Bless you travel safe and I have missed your channel.
Hi Nicolas. What an earth am I going to do with you?. There are no words that can describe your beauty, your glowing health, your intelligence, your appreciation of life and your big heart and, I wish to add, you talk beautifully. I do think it is now the time for you to launch your own weekly television channel. And love to your partner. Much love Nicolas, Carole from New Zealand.xx
Nicolas!!! How wonderful to see you! Just when I was starting to worry, you re-appear in this splendid setting! I am beyond excited for you and Nathan and this amazing opportunity for you both to showcase your passion and talent! I look forward to the next several months and your work on this unique project. Just one question: WHERE IS SOPHIE?!!!
I am so sorry to hear that you have been feeling ill for such a long time... What a wonderful opportunity for the both of you to make the story of this beautiful Chateau come to life!!! I look forward to seeing more and am happy to see you back healthy on RU-vid. All the best to both of you on this new Journey!!!
I'm glad you are feeling better. The chateau is beautiful on the outside. I think the indoors part needs a facelift with your wise input. Better quality, greater coherence desperately needed.
I had Covid recently and I was feeling depressed also. I had no energy and my upper body ached, trouble catching my breath at times. I am up to date with my boosters and I feel that I would have been much worse off without them. I’m still not feeling 100% but I’m resting when I need to. Glad to see you again.
Glad you are feeling better,I've worked in care all the way through and I must say that the ones whom took the jab had covid longer and are more unwell with it.just to let you know that one should take note of this after all its your choice and well being that's important and I can only say what I've seen.
This space is so gorgeous! What an amazing opportunity for you and Antoine to share in bringing the Chateau to life. So glad you are feeling well. First time Covid and my taste and smell did return. Be Well and please take care. What a fabulous place to regain your strength!
I’m glad to see you, again. This place is absolutely stunning. It’s such a cozy feeling here in this room. It’s so lovely. Nicolas, you have been missed & I an happy to see you.
Nicolas I miss you so much praying for you to stay healthy. God bless you thank you for showing me this beautiful place 💓 you are so sweet and kind. Love this place. Welcome back and enjoy your day God bless you.
I just love everything about this video. The Chateau with all its beautiful details and the fact that you and Nathan is going to stay there to do the social media contents. So perfect in so many levels.
Very beautiful and interesting, glad you have recovered. We are all wondering where has our Sophie gone, and Nathan's pup as well. Please give us an update. Your silence and not addressing the repeated comments here is making me concerned. I agree with those who have gobe seasick with the camera. Nicolas, you used to include some beautiful musical selections. I hope you do so again.
Dear Nicholas, it is so wonderful to see you again! I have missed you and have been wondering where you have been. Sorry to hear you had Covid, but very glad to know you are on the mend now. In terms of this incredible chateau: it’s as if you have lived your life specifically for this moment. Everything that is you - sophisticated interior designer, delightful gardener, wonderful chef - can now be enjoyed here. Enjoy each day as much as you can. You deserve it! And no worries - I thought your pacing of the video was perfect. You lingered just long enough, and showed things as I would have looked at them. I’ll take the green room please! 💚🌹
I am so glad you are recovering. I was worried about you when I hadn’t seen you post anything.Is Sofie staying in the chateau with you? This is absolutely breathtaking. So beautiful. What an amazing job the decorators have done. I have decorated some historic homes particularly for the holidays and I can only imagine how splendid the chateau will be at Christmas. Thank you for sharing.Take good care. Try drinking lemon water daily first thing in the morning before having tea or breakfast. Perhaps you could find some local honey ( within 25 miles of where you are) and take a tablespoon each day. Fresh air and sun as well to help you build up your immune system.
No one does beauty better than you Nicholas and combined with Nathan's beautiful photography I am sure you will as a team produce some fantastic work. Good luck and cannot wait to see your future productions.
I am sorry to hear that you haven’t been feeling well, and how nice to see back xxx thanks for sharing this beautiful place. Sending you lots of love xx
Such a brilliant idea to showcase Chateau de Curzay through the perspecive lenses of Nathan and Nicolas by highlighting the uniqueness of the Chateau with the upcoming changing seasons. The opening video sequence by Antoine Paillard as part of the Chateau's public promotion is magnificent. The owner Kevin and team have really put a lot of effort to offer an experience of being at home while being away from home. Nicolas - your channel is one of my main channels that I like to watch. I just like the way you perceive the beauty in the world and I am glad that you pulled through the covid victoriously with the relaunch of your next chapter on UT. You have a close family and I am sure they wrapped around their support to both you and Sophie during your absence; you were very much missed. Stay Well, Healthy and Strong.
Suggestion ... next video, post a map indicating the location of this chateau in France. Would save followers leaving RU-vid to search it on Google maps. Would provide context. Gorgeous place!
I’m so happy to see you back Nicholas! Grateful you’ve recovered from Covid and sorry you had to suffer like that. Summer has breezed by it seems. And here you are in such a gorgeous chateau side-by-side with one of your besties producing content from now through Christmas. I’m following your and Nathan’s posts on Instagram. Congratulations! What a wonderful opportunity. ❤🎉
Happy you are feeling better! Please slow the camera down. I get sea sick as your lens moves so quickly from one beautiful object to the next. I want to savor it all! Nathan: thank you for sharing your sign language with us.
I’m glad to hear you’re doing better, Nicholas. Never had Covid to the best of my knowledge, but I’ve been horribly sick with the real flu. I was strong, healthy, in my 30’s, yet I was so ill..104 fever, couldn’t get out of bed without help to even use the bathroom, developed wheezing, difficult to breathe, had to have someone get my meds, water, etc. I had never felt so sick in my life. The chateau is beautiful! Enjoy your time there and be well. ❤
@@rosa-f4865 respectfully he replied to one comment and said he will only be in France one week a month. Both his and Nathans dogs are at his home with a sitter for the weeks he is away which will only be five at most. This vlog gave the impression that he was living at the chateau for five months which is misleading at best😊
@@arnicepernice8656 Thank you for explaining yes the video was misleading regarding his stay there and I could see many people were concerned about Sophie but he should have answered them xx
I always think I want to live in a pied-à-terre until I see stately homes like this and then am desperate to move in today!!! I'm so happy for you that you're living with your good friend for the next fie months. You deserve such beauty as you celebrate beauty wherever you go. Adore that and many other things about you.
Hopefully your new lovely location will speed up your recovery! Great to see you back! With all the vibrant colors and mixtures of items in the grand salon it’s amazing that the overall vibe is calming and serene. Oh that unexpected purple! I look forward to updates on your amazing new adventure!
So glad you are feeling better Nicolas. I had Covid once, it does knock the life out of us. I hope I never get it again. This is such a lovely chateau, you being there for five months will be amazing. I guessing you will be there for Christmas season. What a beautiful time to be at the chateau!
Glad you are feeling better. Your gracious way is uplifting. I like modern design, am a minimalist and am not into royalty or tradition. Yet I still find your content rewarding.
Amazing, Nicholas! I am so happy no one painted the orignal woodwork-I cry when people do that. LOVELY presentation--your're voice is the BEST! Love from the USA, congrats! Kimberly
Glad your back ...❤ Get plenty of FRESH AIR IN THOSE LUNGS !!! 🎉 ps....and you're CORRECT WHEN YOU SAY EVERYTHING IS SO BEAUTIFUL.... BECAUSE IT IS ❤❤❤❤😊
Thank you, Nicolas! ❤ We have missed you. So happy to see you back. What a gorgeous and exquisite venue! No wonder superlatives escape. Just beautiful. Am eager to see your upcoming videos through December. Please post often on RU-vid. Such a delight to anticipate watching every one of your treasurable videos. Thank you & stay well. Best wishes, John
It is great to see you back on RU-vid. I'm so sorry to hear that you were stricken with Covid after returning from your holiday. I hope none of your family or boyfriend were sick as well. It's thrilling that you and Nate are going to be staying at the chateau through the end of the year. The tour of the ground floor rooms, various suites on the 2ne floor and gardens are simply fantastic. The ambiance is a balance between coziness and understand luxury. I can't wait to see what get up to in the coming weeks. Enjoy the wanning days of summer. It’ll be lovely watching the seasons change during your stay on the property. Wishing you all the best and continued good health. 🙏☺️
I had the original CoVid strain, after I was vaccinated. You are right it is no picnic, but I got through it, just taking Ibuprofen. First week: flu-like symptoms, runny nose, headaches. Second week: extremely sore throat and difficulty swallowing. Third week: chest congestion and deep cough. Lethargic and tired throughout and a few weeks following! Will NEVER get another CoVid vaccination, including boosters - euphemism for another vaccine shot - against CoVid.
So great to see you again. Yes the C19 is evil. I told a friend I think even my toenails hurt!! Take care of yourself! Oh my what a trip we in with the Chateau. Can’t wait. Hugs.
It is so nice to see you again. I am glad that you overcomed illness. Not to offend anyones view on covid vaccine ( my husband took the vaccine, and i didn't ) but we both have seen that our vaccinated friends got more then two or three times covid while I and our friends that are unvaccinated were sick ones or not at all. Please take care with lotsof natural vitamin C and D andthings will work better for you in the future. Love
Thank you Nicolas and Nathan , you have taken me to the gates of heaven . What a beautiful place absolutely stunning, i am looking forward to future episodes . Wishing you both well
My goodness Nicolas! I’m so glad that I decided to log onto RU-vid while I cleaned my kitchen. Catching this video turned my mundane evening into something beautiful. I really couldn’t dream up a more fitting location for you to be doing what you love, and thank you for sharing. You and Nathan must be on cloud nine! I’m happy you’re well and back with your videos. See you soon!
