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 [...]
I realized I never posted our itinerary on the blog. I had merely sent it to our close friends and family via a newsletter, so I thought I'd post it again on here since many of you were interested in how we did our cross-country trip in the first place. So, see below from July [...]
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 [...]
It's been a while since I've written so I thought I'd give an update on our lives since we began self-isolating and social distancing due to COVID-19. We've been self-isolating since Thursday, March 12. Today marks 20 days of being homebound. A few days before we decided to do this, Ry had been pleading with [...]
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 [...]
