Mommy and Marketer 👨👩👦. Yogi 🧘🏻♀️. My family on a Portuguese adventure.
Hi Family and Friends! I'm sorry I have been amiss about writing on my blog. I've missed it and you, so hopefully I can get back on a regular routine where I'm writing more frequently and keeping you up to date on our adventures. To start off from my long hiatus, I wanted to share [...]
Since Jax goes to an International School that follows the British calendar, we had a half-term break last week. It was the perfect time to do a road trip! Our itinerary also included a stop in Evora and particularly for Ry, surfing hotspots Nazare and Ericeira. I will have to share about those charming places [...]
Many of you already know how much I love Paris. I especially love that I need only take a mere 2 ½ hour flight from Portugal to visit one of my very favorite cities in the world. I had previously booked a trip in April because my dear friend Aubrey had a family vacation scheduled [...]
This post is long overdue because we went to Porto on November 1st. November 1st was a national holiday here in Portugal (All Saints' Day) so all schools were closed. It was the perfect time for a 7-hour road trip up to Porto, a city I have been wanting to re-visit since we moved here [...]
We made it to Oktoberfest this year - the actual, real authentic Bavarian Oktoberfest in Munich, Germany. And it was A BLAST! I'm so glad we made this last minute decision to go - it was a once-in-a-lifetime, check it off your bucket list experience. We left Saturday afternoon and took a straight flight on [...]
I have had a hard time writing this recap post because honestly, part of me wants to keep it all to myself. I think Italy does that - romances and seduces you so much that my limited vocabulary is not enough to explain its gloriousness! Since my clients would be celebrating the US Labor Day [...]
If you follow my social media accounts then many of you already know that we spent last Saturday in Tangier to meet up with my niece and goddaughter Kyra who is studying in Meknes, Morocco this summer. The sweet little baby that I used to hold in my arms just turned 21 and is only one [...]
As many of you know, we are living in Seville, Spain for the summer. Our Algarve flat already had preset holiday bookings and since Algarve rents get pricier in the summer, it was an opportune time to explore a different, neighboring country and practice our limited Spanish skills (which we actually do need to use [...]
In late November last year, my dear friend and former L’Oreal colleague Michelle told me that she was going to be in Paris for Maison & Objet in January. So, I took the opportunity to meet her there and bring Jax and Ry with me, too. This was my 4th time in Paris, but a first [...]
So, Forbes Magazine headlined an article in April: “Why L.A.’s Museum Of Ice Cream Is The ‘Hamilton’ Of The Frozen Snack Scene” followed by another article a few weeks later: “Museum Of Ice Cream Is The Hottest Ticket In Los Angeles.” And boy, were they right. Thanks to my friend Lish (who works with Lolli Swim, [...]
