I’ve officially decided the France is my spirit country…like you’re spirit animal, but it’s my country. I have now been to France 3 times (Paris, Lyon, and now a weekend in Toulouse and Bordeaux), and each time, I leave happy, full [of cheese] and planning my next trip. Toulouse and Bordeaux both blew me away, and […]
48 hours in Porto, Portugal
Ah, what a life I have to be able to spend 48 hours in Porto, Portugal. Just a quick hop, skip and jump from Spain, it’s the perfect weekend travel destination. There were some inexpensive flights available, so we jumped on it and went! These 48 hours in Porto, Portugal were my second trip […]
Luis in the USA, Part VII (Visiting Ventnor, NJ)
The final post and the final day of the trip! What a better end to the All-American trip than a day in Ventnor NJ? After getting back late from NYC the night before, we slept in a bit, had some breakfast, and got ready for our last adventure. My parents were already down in Ventnor […]
Madrid Two Day Weekend Itinerary
This post is inspired by all of my die-hard fans out there (haha, I’m kidding). But really, it is inspired by all of the people that have reached out to me to recommend things for them to see, eat, do, and places to visit while either they, or a friend, are spending two days Madrid. […]
Luis in the USA, Part VI (New York City II)
Our first day in NYC was wet and rainy, but good nonetheless. Our second day, however, was sunny, warm, and perfect. We had breakfast in a super fancy place. And then headed straight for Time’s Square, which is awesome at night, but I think it’s possibly even better during the day…or maybe the rain is clouding […]
Luis in the USA, Part V (New York City)
Ah, New York- the part we had all been waiting for! Ask any Spaniard where they want to go in the US, and they will undoubtabely say “New York”…and then you will roll your eyes because there are so many great places in the US, but I guess NYC is cool too 😉 This was […]
Luis in the USA, Part IV (Philadelphia and Food Firsts)
After two days in D.C., we were so ready for a chill day. We didn’t get home til pretty late on Tuesday, so we woke up late on Wednesday, had pancakes with my dad, went for a run around the neighborhood, and then got dressed and braved the subway into town. I absolutely LOVE […]
Luis in the USA, Part III (Washington D.C II)
So much to say, so many photos to share! If you are just coming to the blog, check this post for the first part of our Washington trip. On the second day, we had breakfast with Maeghan and then said our goodbyes. From there, we headed into the center of Washington and immediately headed to […]
Luis in the USA, Part II (Washington D.C)
After a day in Philadelphia, we had a day to relax and celebrate my birthday (!!!) Why (how?) am I 26?! I’m old…just look at that grandma sweater in da club! And then were off the next day for two amazing days in Washington D.C. But wait. before that, we spent a day in Philadelphia, […]
Luis in the USA, Part I (Philadelphia)
I am not really sure where to begin with these posts because there is so much to say! Luis coming to visit the US was something we had been talking about for awhile, and once I finally bought my own ticket to go home for a bit, we were able to get it together for him […]
