WHAT YOUTUBERS DON'T SHOW YOU!
I reveal the secrets of the life of a vlogger and show you the reality that you rarely see on KZhead!
Escape to the chateau with ’The Chateau Diaries’ 🏰
In 'Sundays at the Chateau' Stephanie shares French chateau life and culture with you ❤️
A very special thank you to all of you who have become Patrons of the Chateau de Lalande. You have made The Chateau Diaries one of the top 400 Patreon accounts in the world, and have transformed not only out lives here, but the future of this beautiful chateau! I’m overwhelmed by your kindness and generosity. On behalf of this beautiful chateau that will continue to survive and flourish because of you, thank you!!!

I've said it before and I'll say it again. Stephanie is writing, producing, filming, acting, editing, staging, and airing an entire TV show on her own. I'm so pleased she has Philip helping her with the filming and editing now, and Natti is behind the scenes. Stephanie was born for a career in film media and she has accomplished this on her own with no training, no BBC, and no Hollywood. Best thing on KZhead! Bravo.
You're absolutely right.
I agree 100%!! Bravo Stephanie! Remember to take care of yourself too! ❤️
Except it’s not a TV Show and it’s not entirely “acted”. It’s people’s life ❤️
@@evealexandra4367 I think the "acted" meant the things she's done for Michael P.
Lea McMartin ahhh this makes sense!!
This just makes me realize how much I miss Gerry, Percy, Isabell, Hanni, Cat, Antione, Marie, Elusive Nick, Mason, Michael P, Michael Potts and Ruth etc. Stephanie you do such a great job of pulling me and I’m sure others into your life and the activities and interpersonal contacts. It is a true gift make no mistake. Thank you.
And Tomas
Totally Agree.
I miss Gerry's jokes. Phillip is a good fill in though, lol.
Is Gerry related to Stephanie ?
@@kathyhuff8935 - somewhat of an older brother, He's been part of the family since Stephanie was born. Not her biological brother but better. :-)
You’ve made us realise quite how much we miss Mummy, Percy, Kat and the delightful Hanni .......just hope that all of them will be reunited at the chateau very soon
Where did Kat go?
She went back to the UK for Christmas with her family and got stuck in lockdown. Lockdown has lifted in the UK ,but now there’s one in France......plus we’ve had Brexit😨 I do believe her intention was to return to France in the New Year. Grrr, to COVID🥶
@@hootenanny1001 Arg, I miss her, she was such a joy to watch, a warm hearted shining amazing women. Hoping for the lockdown to lift, soon!
I've never been one of those people who think that vloggers just talk into a camera and post it and make a ton of money but, good Lord, I had no idea how exhausting the whole process actually is!!!!! I was exhausted by the end of day 3 and was wondering how in the world you manage to keep going. It was very informative and also a sweet walk down memory lane to see all of those lovely people who aren't at the Chateau right now. Much love to you and my eternal gratitude for putting all of those hours of hard work into making the best channel on KZhead.
🙏✨❤️
Me either. Two channels plus chateau renos . Yikes. No wonder Stephanie needed bed rest.
She does 5 vlogs a week ... That's A LOT at least compared to other KZheadrs I watch! She's practically a daily vlogger! Most channels I watch put out 2-3 videos a week so I cannot imagine finding time to film and edit 5 . Editing is what is so time consuming so yeah. I hope she knows she doesn't have to overwork herself for viewers and can take breaks and change schedule as she pleases, as so many other channels do!
I knew Stephanie was a professional vlogger. But I take my hat off and salute her for all the work that she takes to keep us entertained.what I like the most is her respect and appreciation for all of us.
The Chateau Diaries KZhead, Chateau de LaLande, and Chateau Unwrapped
I've died and gone to heaven - Nati, Kat and Hanni dancing in the road at 11:30 at night!
That was so Fabulous!
@@annskaggs4475 I think it is due to the lockdowns that have happened between the UK and France. Likely the same reason Gerry, Mummy and Percy have not traveled back.
Yes! miss that trio !!!🤩🤩🤩😍😍😍🌟🌟🌟
My favourite parts are when everyone joined you with tea and snacks and dancing while you were uploading and Selmar’s delight that Cat could “move everything!’ Dancing 💃🏻 🕺 🤣
God that Gardner can never be found, must have a good hiding place ...
🤣
I know never to be found! She’ll get you a walkie talkie next 😂.
🤣
@@marilou862 or a GPS tag 😄
He's a Shocker!
The total highlight of this video was to see Isabelle and Gerry. Everyone who flows through the Chateau bring individual energy but they are very, very, very missed.
Jerry is such a thoughtful and loving man. Each vlog requires so much time and preparation. I so appreciate how much you do for all of us. That being said, please don't overdo and do take care of yourself.
I hope scotman will move permanently to be with his little 'sister's.Their relationship shows perfectly that love makes a family ,not necessarily blood.
As Isabel would say, "Absolutely" !
Thought the same...
That is the plan actually.
Scotsman ? The man with the plugs ?
Great to see behind the scenes to appreciate how much work goes into producing these fantastic vlogs. No wonder you are exhausted.
No si1t!!😊 Had a year in my eye seeing Kat and Hanni ! 😊💜💜💜💜
And I'm glad Stephanie doesn't have to be in that dark off-road area to edit, thank goodness !!
I feel absolutely guilty that Stephanie works so hard for us. Is this why she was in hospital? From sheer exhaustion!? Please take care Stephanie!❤
Sheer exhaustion ? Are you serious ?
The girls turning up in the car with tea was just epic! 🥰
No wondered you were tired with all the vlogs you do Stephanie at least you have better and quicker broadband, saves you going out late at night. At least you have Philip to help you with it. Missed Kat she was so much fun'. Be nice to see everyone back, hopefully soon. Loved all your vlogs so much fun and laughter
Stephanie, it is so obvious that this is your passion and you are blowing it out of the ballpark!
Oh Stephanie - if you could only package and sell your energy - you would be one of the richest women in the world! So much love and devotion - thank you!
What a busy lady! You make it look so easy and fun. Most importantly, the beautiful chateau is loved and lived in. There is happiness and life everywhere.
Thank-you, Stephanie, for keeping us afloat during these tough times. It was a delight to see Isabelle and Gerry and Hanni and Kat. It says a lot about you and what you have created that such remarkably lovely people are drawn to LaLande. You all know how to work hard toward a shared vision, as well as how to celebrate each other and your accomplishments. I am so grateful I came upon your channel, and look forward to travelling with you into the future. May God continue to bless you all.
Very well said ! 🙏✨✨
You Vlog has added so much amusement! & inspiration to do: baking, cooking, floral arrangements, gardening, furniture restoration. & deeper appreciation of:art, musicians, poetry, textiles,literature , history, furniture design, pottery & porcelain. 💞Love & Hugs... to all your Chateau family.
You have all my trust. Not only are you always entertaining, but you always share the truth. That is one of the reasons why people are drawn to you. ❤️ and blessings from John in New Jersey.
Fun to be here eh!? 🥲 I miss Kat and Scotman and Isobel and Percy!!!!
Yeah..where are they?
@@sandie157 All stuck in England due to covid.
Me too ...Very Much !
Isabel and Percy are in South Africa
And Hanni!
Each lovely person who has stayed at Lalande has contributed to the magic and the atmosphere.
I think it would be difficult to have no clear line between work time and personal time. You pull everything together so well, but my head is spinning for you. It must be extremely challenging to always be living through the camera lens. I do appreciate you sharing so much with us.
Dear Stephanie You are amazing 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻 Beautiful in every way . And you give so much love to people close , to people around the house and to us who follow you here♥️❤️ Big hugs ❤️♥️❤️♥️❤️♥️🍀👌🏻😎🌹💐🍾🥂
Stephanie, I have been watching you before the chateau diaries with curiosity, admiration and affection. And now with respect for your dedication and focus and generosity. Thank you for sharing your dreams and your life in a way that has enriched mine.
Wow! And you are STILL smiling! I'd be grumpy and barking at everyone. I'm glad you're able to do it with such grace. I thoroughly enjoy watching!
Stephanie, were all so proud of you....your mum is literally 1,5 hours from where I live. Love from South Africa
I must say ... I MISS Mummy and Gerry and Cat so very much. I adore those who are at the chateau right now too! But it's not the same without them there. They have their own lives to lead, but I hope they know how delightful they are, and how much the viewers miss them being THERE, part of the gang :) And if we miss them so, I can't imagine how much you miss them!!
Much missed faces! So good to see them again!❤️
That was just joyous to watch..........everyone caring for each other......and bringing you food..........it really is unique and wonderous place.......God Bless
I seriously wasn't aware of how much work needed to go into vlogging.. no wonder you got poorly; you do an amazing job and I love your videos. The people you have as friends are also amazing and I also miss the joy and atmosphere they bring but they will soon be back to help you along. Keep doing what your doing x
Thank you Stephanie and all of the volunteers as well as patrons and subscribers.
Ah, you made our hearts feel warm and happy seeing the others we haven't seen for such a long time! Lovely to see behind the scenes but also insightful of your determination and drive. You are such an example! And you are loved and respected by so many! 💐
Your new boudoir/study is looking amazing. I love the potted plant on the stand in the corner. Just wanted to tell KZhead ..... hey KZhead I hope you're listening ....that it was because of you Stephanie and Chateau Diaries that I watch KZhead more than television these days. You have absolutely made our 3 lockdowns in Toronto easier. I live by myself so am quite envious of the lovely world you have created. You deserve every penny you have earned from KZhead as you obviously work really hard editing and filming. Keep up the great work!!! VIVE LALANDE!!!!
Same here, KZhead! I’ve clicked on soooo many more vlogs since watching The Chateau Diaries 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
So wonderful to see Mummy, Scotman, Kat and Hanni again. Old footage but still great to see them all!! Loved the behind the scenes vlog!
Thank you, Stephanie! I began watching you during the pandemic and have been hooked ever since. Thank you for allowing us to share your days, with you. Absolutely incredible how dedicated you are with what you have just shown. Please take the advice you offered your beautiful mom and take time to rest. Without you, the show can’t go on! 🥰
Stephanie...I could tell you I think you are the best You Tuber in every way that there is. I could say the content, the people, the information is phenomenal..my favorite. And, it’s all true. But, I will simply say...I love your bathroom!!! The Venetian mirror peeking out is to die for! You look stunning sitting on your beautiful tub surrounded by reflections of..you! I appreciate the work it takes to do what you do. I hope you get help with editing at some point so you can take a rest. 👏 great job!
Peace and joy to all the citizens of LaLande. Can’t wait to connect with you again. God bless each of you for your own unique, special gifts. ❤️
Thank you for giving us a peak at your daily life! We love you!💞💞
Awww. It was so nice to seeing all of those lovely faces again. I'm so glad you don't have to upload from the car anymore. I'm also so glad you have a workspace that is separate from your bedroom. It's important that you keep your bedroom for rest.
So happy to catch this live from Ireland! I’m recommending it to all my stressed-out clients as a dose of happiness!😊
Do you know, lovely Stephanie,. I cannot imagine why you were hospitalised!!! Does the notion of exhaustion have any resonance? 😉☺️
As a content creator myself I knew it takes hours to put up one video. You showed it well. I must confess being jealous of people bringing you cups of tea! I’m a widow who misses that lovely tradition! However I comforted myself with a steaming cup before the video ended!
Oh Stephanie this was wonderful. You’re very welcome but you do know we all need to thank you for the wonderful gift you give us every week with this vlog. We love you all and I’m sure I’m not the only one that thinks this is amazing. It’s one of the most uplifting and joyful vlogs/tv shows ever! Love it! Thank you for making my afternoons amazing!
Bravo !!👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼🙏✨
Only 2:10 in and I'm already laughing. "Dan! Yoohoo!" Love it.
She activates the opera-pipes when you least expect it. 😂
Well done! Hope to see Cat again soon. Her energy is lovely
I’m happy to see that I am not the only person who has been watching the old vlogs because they have been missing people. I always knew that you all did an incredible amount of work to put out these vlogs every week but the reality is mind blowing. Thank you Stephanie and everyone else that is involved.
Stephanie, NOW I understand what must have been part of what caused you to go to hospital. I also understand how worth it everything you’ve done has been and continues to be. I am a grandmother of nearly 70. Your vlogs have brought such new life to my world. I have dreamt of visiting Great Britain, France, and other European countries my entire life. Circumstances have made that only a dream. I studied French for 8 years, Spanish and Italian for one year each whilst in school. Your vlogs have made it possible to be in France as though I were vacationing with all the wonderful people at LaLande. Experiencing tours of fabulous historical and cultural history I’ve dreamt of. How can I begin to express my gratitude for all your hard work. To see LaLande become the place you’ve dreamt it could be, soldiering on by yourself for so long through many winters. This is a gift to those of us who love your spirit and have come to love you. Thank you a million times over. Were I a person of means I would become a patron in a heartbeat. Bless you Stephanie. Please take care of yourself so that those of us who may never have the opportunity to actually meet you may continue to have the pleasure of you channels!
Here's hoping the Lalande family can all be together soon, as we love to see the fun, work and affection you all have for each other. Plus mummy is just fabulous😄
As always: a perfect mix between interaction with the wonderful employees at Lalande, and the reality of being a KZheadr. Your mother really has a fantastic daughter, she has every reason to be proud! As always, best of luck, but take care of Yourself!
I have to admit, I never realised how much time making these vlogs took. The vlogs are so seamless and incredibly enjoyable to watch. I thank you and yr 'team' for all the contributions. Each of you are rays of sunshine 🌞 . Much love to you all. X
Yes, a frantic but true look at the work of media production. I just hope you can get some help soon!
Remembered why I miss Gerald. His marvelous sense of humor. This was such a fun video. Love all the goings on behind the scenes. Once you got your new internet, your upload schedule completely changed. So I imagined your life improved dramatically. Thanks for all you do.
I am proud of you and all your hard work! You are amazing! Hugs
I could not love you more. Thank you for this. Missing all of our beloved Lalanders. ❤️ Always going above and beyond our delight, this video proves you are truly our favorite KZheadr of all times. Be well please. Stay well. ❤️
OMG! My dearest Queen. This is such hard work. I’ve decided I’d rather be rich and just live and love without abandon. AOL.
Good line. I'll have to remember that.
😂😂😂😂🙏✨✨✨✨💜
You work so hard Stephanie. Thank you for the chance to see the folks that are right now missing from the Chateau. X

I said it before... You deserve your success, Stephanie Jarvis!!! It is amazing the amount of work you do every single week. It is quite an enterprise you are directing there... We are learning so much from you and as we are in our third lock down, you have become a sanity saver... I know, I am looking forward to your vlogs every week.

I am exhausted just listening to Stephanie and all the work she did to post these vlogs, for us!!❤️. Amazing❣️
Happy Spring! I'm putting seeds in my garden today!
I find it hard to wait - Tuesday seems far away! 😂 And with all thats happening, its just so exiting to see the progress 😃
Tellement de choses ont changé !! 🤩 La cour, La Chapelle, les rénovations des différentes pièces, Mary qui a changé d’endroit, le projet du lac qui avance, le jardin et les plantations... la chaîne KZhead de Selmar, de Marie, les cadeaux.... la présence de Ian l’électricien qui sait tout faire avec son équipe, Philip et Natty devenus essentiels pour le bon fonctionnement et la joie de tous !!!...

Oui absolument d’accord!?
As I only Speak English and Afrikaans., I couldn’t understand anything you wrote! But it all looks Positive and happy! Take care Jenny
Thank you Stephanie and everyone at Lalande looks like so much fun .
My god Stephanie this really puts into perspective what you put into the reality of doing your Vlogs , it is more than a full time job 24/7 and to think that all you have achieved without any training whatsoever ! Just determination, persistence and dedication to perfection. Well Done you are a 🌟 Seeing Isabella and Gerry makes one realise what a miss they are, also Hanni and Cat , in fact all the wonderful characters we are used to seeing at Lalande.
Thank You Stephanie, Always an inspiration. Your father would be so proud of you. I know is is.
Yes! 🙏💜✨
It's clear that you work very hard but this shows just how hard, it is amazing. Also this made me miss Mummy & Gerry even more than usual, I wish they would come home and never leave.
This is so funny, because I was thinking of asking you to make just this sort of video! I knew how many hours you put into it and wanted to know more. Thank you!
We appreciate all the time an hard work you put in for us to be able to be apart of yalls life's. Your channel is by far one of my favorites!!! I hope you are all doing well. And please tell Kat we all miss her an hope to see her again soon!!
What a lovely video! I can't wait for travel restrictions to lift so lalande can have lots of new characters join it!
Stephanie, you are just so amazing! Thank you for the hours of entertainment. I love seeing all of you do what you do with passion, love and respect. It’s inspirational and you are truly a genius ❤️
How many apartment do you have
Incredible work Lalanders, including all patrons! Such a joy to see the chateau and grounds improvements, as well as the extra videos about life in France. 💖🤗
You no longer need to get in the car to upload your videos! Thank you 4K internet.👏🏼👏🏼 *edit-Oops I commented before watching til the end.🤭
This video was a great idea--I enjoyed it very much. You all have kept me company over the last year and a half so it was great fun to have an unexpected look-back at the life, love, laughter, and work set in this context. Thanks for all your hard work Stephanie, and thanks to all Lalande team members who participate in the filming day after day after day.
Much love to you and La Landers.
So glad you don’t have to drive out to upload your videos anymore. So much work. Just amazing
Iam freaking love the old oven in the kitchen it’s gorgeous Love your content !!!!!!❤️❤️💕💕💖
You work very hard and it shows in the high quality content you put out on your channels!!! Thank you for sharing the behind-the-scenes work that you put into your channels!!!
Nice to see the missing family. I do love the flowered wallpaper in your new office. I know you' ll probably change it to your favorite yellow but I Do think it's pretty.
You are amazing on what you do Stephanie. I can’t wait to see you realise your dream of having the chateau de Lalande restored back to its glory.❤️🥰
Gerry is so charming! Mummy is so adorable, I just can't get enough of her. Nati is gorgeous. Stephanie you are rocking the world on KZhead, thank you so much for sharing with us. hugs

Ahh some lovely blasts from the not so long ago past, fond memories. Best wishes to everyone who is still there & not there at the moment. 😊
So wonderful to see Kat again 😻 BRAVO pour cet énorme boulot Stéphanie !!! Tu nous enchantes chaque semaine, merci à toi ! 🌼🌼🌼
We love you Stephanie. ❤
Stephanie, your passion for your work and chateau comes through with every breath you take. It is hard work, but it is your work and that makes a difference. I appreciate your efforts and look forward to seeing your dreams come to fruition and to seeing everyone back at the chateau again hopefully soon! 🌸
Wow, looking back highlights how far you and the chateau has come! You now have decent wifi, a beautiful courtyard, open space around the chapel and the list goes on... awesome achievements. Stephanie, you are the perfect example of what sheer hard work can achieve! Praying it won’t be too much longer before everyone can return. Miss all their faces and voices. God bless!
Such a lot of work! and a lot of followers make it so worthwhile! Miss that Jerry and Mummy and the rest of the gang. Good job Stephenie, don't know too many people that would keep up the pace you have had to do. Love to all a Laland, my favorite place to watch the vlogs. Hope they all get to return soon!
Really like the wallpaper in the room you have your desk. It has such a happy feeling.☺️
WOW - that was an epic endeavor. Thank you!
Loved this vlog. And can soooo see the benefits of living together. Such a wonderful lifestyle. 😍
Selma and Kat! Priceless.
Stephanie loved loved loved this vlog! Was like the old days of how we fell in love with your channel
