Three days in San Francisco was the perfect amount of time to see all of the famous sights, walk around the best neighborhoods in San Francisco, and visit some of the awesome places that people had recommended to me. Since we had flown from Vegas to San Francisco, we had three days in San Francisco […]
Wheatberry Peach Summer Salad
No one can deny that one of the best parts about summer is the insane abundance of fresh produce available, from juicy peaches and other stone fruits, to flavorful herbs and sweet corn. There is so much ready to be eaten, so this salad is a quick way to bring all of summer’s flavors into […]
A Weekend in Madrid in August
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. It was the perfect blend of seeing friends, doing fun things, working out, and getting stuff done. As soon as this post gets published, I’m actually going to be […]
A Week Visiting Portugal’s Beaches (Estoril and Lagos) – Part I
Hello, hello, hello! I don’t even know where to begin! I’ve been MIA over here, but that’s because Luis and I were on a week-long vacation visiting Portugal’s most amazing beaches and then when we got back, I immediately hit the ground running with work and doing things. Anyway, here I am, almost 2 weeks […]
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 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 […]
August Weekend.
Hey, hey, hey! Happy Tuesday!! I had grand plans of getting this post up yesterday, but I had a freak episode of getting the chills and then vomiting (twice…during my online class) so that was fun. I spent the whole day sleeping, but I seem to be feeling much better…knock on wood. Other than […]
