With the Holiday months flying at us at full speed, we decided it was time to start making plans. Things book fast here in France, so we honestly should have started earlier. Thanksgiving: Thanks to the influx of Americans into France, there are lots of options for the local ‘Merican to get their feast on. …
It was with sodden hearts (the rain…my god, the rain in Normandy) and cold toes (we had to camp out in the unheated train station for a couple of hours as we waited for our Intercités back to Paris) that we said goodbye to Rouen on Sunday; our third European jaunt indeed proved to be the …
We are currently in the Upper Normandy region, in Rouen, having embarked on another one of our short jaunts out of Paris. The Purrito is currently asleep (I’m the earlier riser, having developed a demanding internal alarm clock), so I’m sitting here, near the front door of the hotel room, furtively tapping on my Surface, …
Out of all the trips we have planned up to this point, I was most excited about London. Who doesn’t dream about going to Paris and London to soak in the culture, history, and atmosphere?

We are 15 days ( and counting) away from reliable internet. With the limited access and my hatred of typing posts out on my tiny french iPhone, posts have been a little behind from either of us. I have been writing them down in a journal I have, so I would remember everything I wanted …
The timing of things worked out such that while we should be able to go knot our apartment today, we can’t do so until later in the afternoon. As the IAH to CDG flight arrives in the morning, we’re currently sitting here, in CDG, trying to both kill time and makes sure that none of …
I flew back to Houston a week ago today. As the blog is entitled Fezzik in Paris and not Fezzik in Houston or Best Little Fezzik House in Texas, I have been quiet. The assumption that nothing is going on would be wildly incorrect though; since I’ve been back, it’s been near-total chaos; between supporting work, …
I have never been to another country. I have been to Canada, but who really counts that? (Sorry, Canada). I found it fitting that the first time I get to go on a European adventure, it is because I have to choose a place to live. I go all in when I do things, why …
