I want to thank each and every one of you that liked my status, commented on it, sent me a private message, or a FB message about yesterday’s post. That post seriously came out of left field- I wrote it wearing pajamas without any coffee pumping through my veins and I am completely SHOCKED at […]
Italy: Florence (Exploring)
For whatever reason, I was excited to see Florence, but not as excited as I was for some of our other stops. Of course, I ending up loving it…or loving the things we did there….or a combination! Then again, I said I loved every city. But Florence blew me away in it’s size (or apparent size- […]
Italy: Venice for 1 Day
The second day, we were up before the sun came up to head to Venice! In one word: Italian Disney World. Ok, 3 words. VENICE Since Venice is complete tourism (really, I’ve heard its e m p t y at night) and the touristy part is on an island, it is quite expensive to stay […]
Italy: Milan for 1 Day
I seriously have no idea where to begin. How do you recap such an amazing trip in just a few posts, with just a few photos (when you have almost 2,000)? How do you put into the words the magic of Italy, of every city we visited? It’s close to impossible, but I’m going to […]
How to Plan a Multi-City European Trip
Planning any Multi-City European trip can be overwhelming- so much to organize! Flights, hotels, trains, buses, AirBnb, rent a car?, restaurants, hitting the major sites, AND MORE. But that’s one ball game. Planning a multi-city trip is a whooooole other beast. It can be totally intimidating, and before doing it myself last summer (to visit […]
The Ultimate Summer Carry-On Packing List
I am a master-packer and I am proud of it! I went home for 6 weeks and only took a carry on, as well as multiple other shorter trips with just my handy-dandy carry on. When traveling, the last thing you want to do is drag a huge suitcase all over the place. You’ll probably […]
7 Recent Things from the USA and 7 Recent Things from Spain.
It’s been quite some time (0kay, a week) since I have been back from the US, but I just haven’t been able to find the motivation to get on here and write. Where are you, motivation?! Part of it is this beautiful weather that Spain is having and I go many days without even cracking […]
7 Signs You’re Back in the USA
Surprise! I went to the United States, just for a little rejuvenation, relaxation, and some re-charging. I was there because a good friend was getting married that week, which ended up being the perfect excuse for playing hooky for ten days! I was there for only ten days, which were ten days full of lots of […]
3.5 Days in Tel Aviv, Israel. (Part III)
That bread up there was sooo good, now currently living in my freezer in Madrid 😉 Saturday was my last full day in Israel, so there was one thing, and only one thing, that I knew I wanted to accomplish. Breakfast. Specifically, Israeli breakfast. I wanted the whole shebang- the 15 little plates of salad […]
3.5 Days in Tel Aviv, Israel. (Part II)
Day two was wedding day!!! We got up, got dressed, and almost immediately caught a taxi to the wedding (which got lost on the way and was super angry that he had insisted we take a pre-set fare that we originally thought was too high and ended up being too low…hehehe). We were blown away by […]
