John Paulus's HAR Blog

This is a humorous, light-hearted and personal look at living in Houston, Texas from the point of view of an Englishman living and working here. It will hopefully throw some light on the differences in things between here and in particular the UK.

Thanks for visiting my HAR blog page. I started this in October 2013 with the idea that it would provide a way to connect and engage with people I know and meet. By doing so I hope they gain some perspective on life in Houston from an outsider's point of view and get to know me through it. When and if the time came to help them buy or sell their house they would already feel a connection with me and what I'm like as a person. Visit johnmpaulus.wordpress.com for my full blog collection.

Slowly Being Converted

January 21st, 2016

They say you can't teach an old dogs new tricks. I think the saying comes more the fact that the teaching of an old dog is hard, which is why we often just avoid the trying in the first place. Like the 'old dog' that I am, I&...

My ten questions for the New Year managed to illicit a rather big response (I had to put them on a spreadsheet!) so I thought I’d share some analysis of the answers with you. 1    No-one provided the same t...

I'm dreaming of ... a hot Christmas!

December 21st, 2015

This year’s ‘must have’ tech fad is the so-called ‘hoverboard’. It doesn’t actually hover and is essentially a two-wheeled Segway without the handlebars, but it looks like a lot of fun. However there h...
