This week was tough. For one, I was suffering from a case of what I refer to as PTD (post-travel depression) brought on by my return from Copenhagen. Although PTD happens quite often in my life, I have yet to figure out how to rid myself of the blues that set in after a great … Continue reading »

Coucou 2012!
It’s cliché but I have to say it… where does the time go? I have been in France for a year and a half. and now… IT’S 2012!! Yikes. I am starting this year off right. I have finally received my work visa. Something I haven’t really delved into for various reasons on this blog … Continue reading »
Christmas Markets and Fake Winter
This may be a case of you-always-want-what-you-cant-have, but it doesn’t feel quite like winter yet. I understand the weirdness of this statement coming from a native Californian and I am not sure if living in France has corrupted me, but I want snow and I want to be freezing when walking around Christmas markets. Yes, … Continue reading »
Mein Wochenende in München
One of the best parts of living abroad is the opportunity to travel more easily and for cheaper. Being in France, I am very central in Western Europe so therefore I can fly a lot of places (or even take the train) and arrive in a relatively short amount of time. I made it a … Continue reading »
La Rentrée
Life has seriously been in fast forward lately. When the hell did it get to be September? The good thing is although life is flying by quickly, it’s also flying by amazingly.

Paris, Je t’aime
Yesterday was a good day. I mean the day part was sort of average to be honest but the evening was quite a success. Work is quite slow right now and I hate it. I really like being busy and almost overloaded. I function much better this way. My high season is now over and prepping for next season … Continue reading »
Tinto and Tapas: Visiting Christy in Madrid
So it has been a while since I have put up a touristy post but I really feel like I need to start doing it again. I don’t want my blog to turn into a guide-book but my travels are so important to me. I need to suck it up and put it down on … Continue reading »
Finger Crossed
I couldn’t believe it when I heard. Let me illustrate the scene. A French person. August. 18h45. Works in administration. Calls my boss. Gives her an email of the person working on my file. For those of you who have never dealt with French admin or visa issues, you have no idea who incredible this … Continue reading »
French Summer= Rain for Days.
I am having quite a hard time believe that this is July. The July I am used to is full of BBQs and bikinis, not rain and jackets. Apparently, because we had such a good spring… we are paying for it now. That doesn’t make sense in my head but hey Ill let the French … Continue reading »
