Mommy and Marketer. My family on a Portuguese adventure.
Before we left California for our Portugal sojourn, my dear and well-traveled friend Paul told me to check out Comporta, a small fishing town he had wanted to visit. Madonna, Christian Louboutin, and Phillipe Starck all have low-key hideaways here so I knew it had to be someplace special. Anyway, Jax and I finally made [...]
When we first arrived in Portugal, my one travel destination goal was Morocco. I figured that since we were so close to North Africa, this would be the ideal time to visit. So we did! Jax had TWO weeks off for Spring Break here (in Europe they call it Easter Break), so last month, we [...]

Many of you already know this, but I thought I’d write a formal post to let you know that we’ve officially moved to Portugal! As of this coming Wednesday, we will already be here for 3 weeks! Time has definitely flown but we are really loving it here. The funny thing is, I am writing [...]
