Besides Thanksgiving, the rest of the weekend was awesome too and I just wouldn’t be me if I didn’t provide you with an excessive number of unwanted details so…. here we go. Saturday After Friday’s Thanksgiving, the house resembled a tornado destruction scene, so Luis and I spent a good couple of hours throwing out trash, cleaning […]
Good morning and Happy Monday! I am writing to you in real time, meaning it’s Monday morning and I am coming down from one of those Really Good Weekend Highs. It was the perfect blend of friend time, Luis time, exercise time (I need it to stay sane), and a lot of food. I’m already […]
Hi friends! Comin’ at ya a little late this week since I feel like I have been running around with my head cut off! “Why do you feel like that Tamara? You barely even work!”. Yes, that is true, but I have a lot of things I do that I don’t get paid for that keep […]
Hello from Madrid!!! If you haven´t figured it out from the title of this post, then I will tell you now: I am in MADRID! That’s right, I am here earlier than anticipated (I wasn’t supposed to arrive until tomorrow morning), but the stars completely aligned (seriously, I don’t know how I got so lucky) […]
Hey there! I’m a little sad that it’s already Monday, but that’s only because this weekend was quite good- the classic weekend in Madrid in August.

Luis and I had talked about spending the weekend visiting Santander, Spain, but then asked his mom if she wanted to join for her birthday, and then his brother- Adrián- […]
I am currently writing this post while waiting in a huge line at the bank and there are only two people working. I opened this account 3 years ago, and have never had problems, but recently they closed ALL branches except for one so there is constantly a line and a lot of angry spaniards. […]
Hello, hello! I’m writing to you on Monday afternoon during a 2 hour break between morning classes and afternoon activities for this job with CIEE. I’m actually incredibly tired, but I like getting a post up on Mondays, so here is your Monday post- a quick glimpse into my weekend in Granada with CIEE. We […]
Hi friends (and fam!) Long time no talk! Like I said in my last post, I have a new job that, while it isn’t all that hard, it keeps me out for much of the day and then when I get home, I have a ton of thigs to catch up on. Plus, I have […]
Wow, what a weekend! I know I am writing this on Tuesday, but I just couldn’t get it together yesterday to write so here I am, sharing a day late. Anyway, hello friends! How was your weekend? It’s weirdly cold here in a Madrid (WHYYYYY!!!!), but I still had a super good weekend. Lots of […]
