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.

I love how Cooper has gone from being a featured character to a co-lead.
The way Cooper looked back at you, so adorable 🥺
“Dad? Where you…going?”😢
getting those shots with those big bags was a commitment that must be acknowledged
😆
Coopers looking back at you when you did the exchange broke my heart 💔
I know :(
I always marvel by the amount of self-footage in your videos, ie., the number of places you place your camera (phone?) on the ground in public places. It must take a ton of time to plan these shots.
I think about this a lot with his videos. It looks great and it must take so much time/thought
@@ZoeMikelStites right?? while schlepping those big bags and a dog, up and down stairs. that's commitment!
I’m always thinking, what if someone grabs it?!
@@alicefranco9103 Right?? He apparently has a lot more trust in people than I do lol
the handover of cooper lol! travel safe. still watching to see where ya going. lol!
That sandwich closing shot 🤌
Oh cooper looking back I can’t 😢just an angel
Such a cutie
Jay... i love that art on your wall at 1:49!!! Btw you have mastered the art of getting through those metro gates with not just one but two suitcases...
The suitcase battle is real. And thanks! The art on my walls is from one of my old books. No longer available but will be again someday
We used to live in Colorado and we can vote on line. It makes it so easy to vote overseas! Safe travels to you.
Checkpoint Cooper😄
That’s an awesome trick!! I haven’t flown to France in several years, but will be bringing my camera next time I go 🫡 Lenses are HEAVY [I have a zoom lens on mine]
3:10 100% a drug handoff lol!!!
I think Cooper's suitcase is larger than Jay's.
Every time
Hi Jay, have a safe flight ✈️
Wow had a hard time traveling in Euro with new TD1 so looking at all your yummy food makes me jealous
Do love a tasty meal 🙏
With my 5 month old Golden Retriever Geordi, he always wants to know where I am. I show him, also wave goodbye when leaving the house. Dogs can tug at your heartstrings. I can never trick airport guys. Probably have it written all over my face. 👏👋🏻
I never try to run the tricks but after enough unwarranted airport abuse... 😆
Those guys at Air France are brutal. Glad you made it through unscathed.
From lagging behind with tweets to being ahead of the curve. Well done! 👏🏽
I wish I visited the post office more. I miss it a lot. It’s simply the best.
Nice tip! British Airways got me like that before. Can you do an update on the Louvre entry hack? It’s worked like a charm for me in the past but last year there was a long line there too.
Oh dang, the secret must be out!
So true about the draconian AF guys. When I flew out, last summer, they literally herded me thru a check-baggage-weight/size portal. At that time it had two lines: weight on one side and size on the other. Luckily I was in the check-size side, and made it without a problem. Had I been on the weight side, it would’ve been a different outcome.
LOVE little Cooper, and felt a heart-tug when he tried to follow you, instead of his sitter. Ohhh, to be able to be in two places at the same time (in the same dimension), so you can travel, and still be home if necessary. (Of course, then I’d want to be in lots of places at the same time, and totally abuse the gift.)
Oh wow I am super impressed that you still vote while in France! Thanks for posting so much btw- now your vlog is part of my morning routine. Good travel trick!
Yes, Jay! Finally taking the train to CDG as regular people! The effort and sacrifice deserves reimbursement. Be aware though, I took it on Saturday and it stopped at Le Bourget without going any further so I had to take Uber for the rest of the way anyway. And on the way back yesterday it didn't go beyond Gare du Nord. Paris is ready for Olympics, so ready! ;-) Hi Cooper! 🐕
😆😆 the nightmares of the RER. Thank you!
I love Bostons. You are his person! How much extra time do you work into your schedule to do all the shot set ups?
He's a keeper. And I run late less than I used to 😆
You've come such a long way Jay! It's been such an exciting time watching your videos. I knew you missed your puppy the minute you handed him over, he was looking around and screaming "whyyyyy daddy???" We have two cats, and they have been MISERABLE when we go away for a week. We literally have put them in the cat tajmahal (for like $600/week each= $1200) and when we get back they are still acting traumatized...
Anyways, I want to know how your family is doing, sister, dad, mom, friends back in the states. Also, were you sending a vote to America, or is this something in France? Will you be visiting the USA anytime soon?
My dh (dear husband of 48+yrs) is 73, I'm 67, he found a big photo album of when we were in Germany for 3yrs while he was an officer in the ARMY, 1980 through 1983, our son was not 1 year old yet. Now our son's going on 43, with a wonderful wife, and three children, all born in the same week as I... Of course I was born eons before them :).
We did love Frankfurt, Germany as well as all the other countries we travelled to, including France, but not Paris. Sometimes I would speak French then end up with German words sprinkled about, and the French did not like that at all, but mostly they gave me a break :). They'd smile when I spoke rudimentary French, and frown when I'd end up sticking a few German words in there... I laugh now, I did my best :).
Your videos are so welcome, I ABSOLUTELY LOVE SEEING YOU TRAVERSE PARIS, AND YOUR PUPPY, AND YOUR TRAVELS, AND ESPECIALLY THE EATERIES! Thanks for sharing all this with us Jay :) !!!
It broke my heart when Cooper looked back at you. Daddy please don't leave me 😢
He knows how to turn on the sad face!
I’ll never forget one of my first times flying AF out of Paris on an intra Europe flight and what was almost a baggage disaster…no idea how we got our bags AND ourselves on that flight 😂
I ❤️ that you vote absentee!
Cheaper than flying Stateside 😅
What about the mystery pics on the disposable? You're going to make us wait for these????
When the dog's luggage is larger than the human's luggage. Impressive tetrus packing.
Postage for your votes was higher than I expected.
Thank You Wine > Thank You Cards
Now I noticed Cooper doesn't have a tail, what happened?
I'm not sure but I think it was docked at birth 🥺 I wish he had a tail but I love him as he is
👍😎
🥂🥂
yeah why is CDG's food so terrible for being the airport of Paris? Last time the only things edible were grocery store level sushi and microwave quiche
True, it's not great!
You didn’t say goodbye to Cooper or explained that you were coming back 😢 (awful dog parenting skills)
🙄 I hate to break the magic here, but just because you don't see something happen on the screen...
Drop Box Suggestion: Hey, Jay! I’ve been watching your vlogs for a long time and I’m a big fan. Your creativity and authenticity shine through in every video. However, I’ve noticed a trend in your vlogs. The “record yourself walking away from the camera so it looks like you left it behind” style has been around for quite some time. While it was a novel concept when it first started, it has become somewhat outdated. Viewers are now aware that vloggers have to go back to grab the camera, and this realization can sometimes take them out of the content when you use it so often. I think you can gain a younger audience by using less of this technique, and you can retain more of your long time subscribers by offering something new and fresh. And I think it will be less work for you to film and edit!🍷from Boston :)
It looked like Cooper almost had more suitcase 🧳🤔. 🌴🌴Aloha
Thanks Yvonne! Cooper always looks sad but the truth is he loves his sitters and always has fun with them. He even has a doggy friend at one sitter's house! and that vote was for the States :)
