A couple of weekends ago, our family got to take our first weekend trip to see more of Spain. We had enjoyed a lot of great daytrips in the last six months, but the holiday weekend was the perfect chance for us to wander further from home. We headed to Granada by way of visiting […]
If it’s alright with you, I’d like to tell the story of our boat trip to visit the Algarve coast only in pictures. We were in Portugal for three days last weekend to celebrate my birthday, and this afternoon on the boat taking a tour of the grottos was by far the highlight. Words wouldn’t […]
Hello! I am excited to finally share a little bit more of my corner of Spain with you. The first trip we took outside of our new town of El Puerto de Santa Maria was an afternoon in Cadiz. I am looking forward to getting to know this city much better– it’s the largest in […]
Yes, we are in Spain now! We made it! It’s been just over a week since our moving day, but it honestly feels more like a month. We’ve been a lot of places, slept in a lot of beds, and done a lot since then. But we’re here, mostly on the other side of it […]
Well, I could sure use some sunshine and fun right about now– how about you? This seems like the perfect time to relive one of our favorite days on our trip back home in November. It was such a contrast to arrive in sunny Los Angeles, after spending almost a week in snowy Michigan. We […]
Fall has come early this year, and although summer is my favorite time of year, England is really at her very best in autumn. So this is a wonderful time to make the most of living in beautiful Suffolk for a few more months. I hope to share some great day trips with you this […]
If you could describe the essence of this summer for you, what would it look like? For me this year, it’s drinking plum wine at the beach. We picked some wild plums last month, and quickly turned them into an easy wine. And on every sunny evening available to us, we have been packing up […]
When you get home from a trip, it’s so easy to just carry on with life– without taking the time to reflect on what you did (and felt) and sharing with others. So today I’d like to make the time to show you some things I love about the beach in De Haan, Belgium. Some […]
We’re back from a wonderful weekend in Belgium! I am thankful for a sweet time, and lots of fun, good food, and good drinks. Today I thought I’d just share some of the beautiful architecture in De Haan. It’s such fun to see, and I just have to show you some of my favorite buildings. […]
Whenever the weather is really beautiful, I find myself wishing that I was near water. We live about an hour from the coast here, but it can be so cold and windy even on sunny days, that we wait until summertime to head to the beach. But on a boat in a marina? You never […]
