Life in Spain: The Good & The Bad

Hey everyone, Now that we’ve been living abroad for about a year and a half, we wanted to share some of the things we love (and some things we dislike) about living here in Spain. We’ll start with the bad… No Central Heating This might be the worst thing for us, especially since it’s winter […]

Cádiz, Cádiz

Hey everyone! Two weeks ago we had some family visiting us in Spain and we were able to take a day trip with them to the city of Cádiz! It is easy to get to from Sevilla to Cádiz, by bus or train (about an hour 1/2) for around 22 euros, so it makes for […]

Sherry Wine Tasting

Hey everyone! Apologies for the delay, but we are happy to be back on the blogging track. Last week, I had some family visit us in Spain and we were able to take some day trips with them. Although we’ve blogged about spending a day in Jerez de la Frontera before, we had never been on […]

Spanish Tapas

Hey everyone! After living in Spain for almost a year, we learned a thing or two about Spanish food. Tapas are the greatest thing EVER. For those of you who don’t know, tapas are small dishes of food (similar to appetizers) that groups of people will share while having some drinks. Often times this can […]

Sevilla City Guide

Sevilla is a great vacation destination! Since it is in the South of Spain, it is cheaper than large cities like Madrid and Barcelona. The weather is amazing almost all year (except for their super hot summers). It’s even close to other cities, like Ronda, Jerez, Cadiz (where you can find some beautiful beaches) and […]

The first and most important is about FERIA! We actually went to two Feria’s this year, the most famous being Feria de […]

One of the highlight’s of our trip was visiting Gibraltar for one afternoon. For those of you who don’t know, Gibraltar is a small piece of land (2.6 square miles […]

The Sounds of Salzburg

Hey everyone!! The hills are alive with the sounds of….Salzburg! Now that you’ve heard about our time in Munich & Neuschwastein, it’s time to talk about the day trip we took to Austria. It’s strange as an American to say that we took a day trip to a different country, but this was actually our […]

Once upon a time…in Bavaria

Hello everyone!! As we are winding down towards the end of our school year here in Spain we were able to take one more trip before heading home. We decided to go back to Germany, but this time we visited the city of Munich. Even though we spent three nights here in an Airbnb, our […]

Algarve Beaches

Hello everyone, Now that we are finished sharing our Italian adventures with you, it’s time to write about we’ve been up to these last few weeks. We were lucky enough to have two very good friends from the U.S. visit us back to back, and both times we took a trip to Portugal with them! […]
