In the 4.5 years that I have lived in Spain, I have had a lot of friends that come and go, but one of my very best friends is Meaghan- a girl that randomly invited me to her Thanksgiving dinner (without ever having met her… is that grammatically correct?) because she wanted to order pumpkin […]
Last April Weekend
Hello from the other side of the weekend! (How and why? I may never understand the speed at which the weekend moves. It’s unbelievable.) Also, how is it ALREADY May (well, soon)? When did this happen?! Anyways, I had a really good weekend so I wanted to share some of it with ya’ll and hope […]
Friday in Florida
Happy Friday, friends! I hope you have some fun weekend plans on the horizon! As for me, much of my weekend will be spent in transit. We will be making the 4 hour drive from Key West to Miami tomorrow, and then I have a nine hour flight back to Madrid overnight Saturday-Sunday. Fun stuff! […]
A Full Weekend
Hi friends! I hope you’re visiting the blog relaxed and rejuvenated after a great weekend! My weekend was superb- lots of friend time, events, etc. From Friday to Sunday, it felt like a go-go-go weekend, but it was the best kind of busy. On Friday, as soon as I hit submit on my last class […]
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 […]

Checking In VII
^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 […]
Italy: Florence (Cooking Class and Renting a Motorcycle)
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: 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 […]
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 […]
