My name is Jay Swanson - I'm an American writer living in Paris on an artist visa. Paris (yes the one in France) has been my home for years now and I have every intention of staying here for as long as they'll have me. I write science-fiction and fantasy, vlogged daily for 3+ years, and love pizza a little too much. Now I make videos about visiting Paris, traveling in Europe, and try to share what I've learned along the way. I hope you enjoyed what you found.

What a gorgeous little town. The train trip was so enjoyable to watch. French trains put North American trains to shame. I wish we could get high speed rail in Canada but the country is just too big and it would probably cost a fortune to build a high speed system here. Such a shame. Cooper is such a sweet dog. He was so cute drinking from the hose. Enjoy your trip.

That is so neat, how wonderful to have someone traveled just to meet you - Neil Gaiman was comforting and author who was embarrassed only two people came to her signing - he said he had one for Gods and Omens and no one came so she had 2 up on him! - to have a friend actually read and enjoy my work - humbling. Cooper has such a great life - little back pack pup everywhere!

One thing about train travel in Europe though, I was recently traveling on a train in Spain and they did have you go through airport style security in Madrid (and there was a line) so just do your research as rules vary by country.

SNCF is thinking of ending the direct line between Paris and La Rochelle. Not enough profits. It would be replaced by a bus between Niort and La Rochelle. So enjoy this direct train while it lasts.
