Buenos días from Barcelona, friends! I’ve been getting so many emails, comments and messages these past few weeks from many of you, kindly been checking in on us with the situation here in Spain. (Thank you. ♡) So today I thought I would pop in today with a little...
Hey friends ♡ I hope that this finds you well and warm today, wherever life may have you this January. We have been snuggled up inside here in Barcelona this past week, while Storm Gloria has slowly been making its way across the country. And while the weather outside...
A photo journal of my day yesterday here in Barcelona. ♡ (This post includes affiliate links.) 6:45am: Too early! Try as I may, I’ve never succeeded in turning into a natural morning person… 6:55am: …but this definitely helps. ♡ Iced pour-over, my absolute fave. 7:00am: Still at it with my early (online) Spanish...
Hey friends! ♡ I thought I would try something new today and move my little “Day In The Life” series from Instagram over to the blog for a change. I always love a good peek into someone else’s everyday life. So for anyone interested, here’s a little snapshot — ha,...
New series alert! When I asked in our reader survey last month what you would like to see on the blog in 2019, there was one request that you all kept writing in — more behind-the-scenes stuff. Also more quick/easy/healthy dinner recipes, but hey, those were already on the agenda!...
Gosh, it’s amazing what a difference a year can make. Last year at this time, we were less than two months into our move to Barcelona, and literally everything around us was new. From exploring the endless streets of magical Christmas lights here in Barcelona, to discovering all of the traditional and super-quirky items to be...
Happy Friday, everyone! ♡ I hope that today finds you warm and well, wherever in the world life may find you. It’s still a balmy 74 degrees today here in Barcelona, which makes this summer-loving heart of mine exceedingly happy. We have our French doors flung wide open, and are planning...
Yesterday, I sat down with yet another doctor to talk about the story of this curve. About how a titanium rod was screwed in to help straighten it when I was a freshman in high school. About how a decade later, I felt a frightening snap. About how after going...
Wow, it feels like an eternity since I’ve written about anything other than food and travel here. If we were grabbing a drink to catch up together, I feel like this is the moment when I give you a big hug and apologize for being so MIA lately. ♡ Life has definitely...
Friends! In lieu of sending out official holiday cards this year, because — let’s face it, both of us are total procrastinators, plus mailboxes and inboxes of all kinds have never been our forte — we thought we’d sing you all a little Christmas song instead. ♡ From our home to yours, we...
Feeling all kinds of relief after finally turning in our mountain of visa paperwork to the Spanish government last week, which included a hot-off-the-press lease for our first tiny little apartment in Barcelona!!! (Can’t stop staring at this charming photo from our soon-to-be balcony.) If all goes according to plan, we will be packing up...
WE’RE MOVING TO SPAIN!!! Specifically…Barcelona! In just 3 months! And I’m thrilled to finally tell you all about it today! ??? Seriously, I’m the worst at keeping secrets, so it has been killin’ me to keep this on the DL these past few months while while we have been wrapping up some logistics....
