I actually just changed that title from 5 Reasons Why Madrid S*&?!s During the Fall, so that’s the alternate title 😉 Spain is great for so many reasons, one of them being the weather. Dry summers with hardly any clouds ever, low rainfall, not super cold in the winter. It’s a decent situation, but one […]
I’ve officially been back in Madrid for a week now, and despite some back-and-forth feelings, I’m definitely happy to be back. There are some things I wish I could write about, but due to the nature of certain people reading my blog, I cannot write about everything I want to. Instead, I’ll share some photos […]
This post idea sort of came to me while I was half dozing off on the plane on my way back to Spain last week. I was in this state of alertness and asleep. I was dozing, listening to the Prince Royce album, thinking about coming back to Spain and what this upcoming year will […]
Planning a trip to Europe and want to bring back a great gift from Spain? I’m actually a horrible person and horrible gift-giver and when I went back to the United States, I didn’t get anyone any gifts to take back to Spain. Even the people I should have gotten a gift, I didn’t Again, […]
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 […]
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, […]
^two of the loves of my life. Making: iced coffee and a lot of it. I make a large batch of espresso and leave it in the fridge overnight, then for 2-3 days I have enough. Small glass, 2 ice cubes, 1/2 glass milk, 1/2 glass espresso. Give it a stir or wait 5 minutes […]
I made it! There is (some) light at the end of this tunnel! I certainly have not finished everything, but I have gotten to the point of signing my papers and now I wait. Wait for an approved or rejected application (let’s hope for approved…) and then I will send a few more documents, sign […]
Spain has so many amazing qualities, but one of it’s best are the abundance of beaches. I have been so incredibly lucky and have been able to visit a bunch of them and after some thorough research, I can honestly say that Mallorca is my favorite. Last week, I spent four days in Mallorca and […]
I am finally (FINALLY) at the stage of paying the tasa (the tax) for my application and while I don’t think it’s very confusing, I have gone through this tasa-paying runaround quite a few times here in Spain, so I thought I would put it all down here for anyone who needs some help. Enjoy. […]
