Holy Toledo
Hey everyone! Now that the craziness of the holidays are over, we want to share with you our day trip to Toledo. At the beginning of December, we had a long weekend where we traveled to Madrid. From there, we decided to take two day trips, one to Segovia and the second to Toledo! Lucky […]
A Day in Segovia
Hey everyone! Last week we had two days off from work and decided to spend our long weekend exploring some cities near Madrid. After a 6.5 hour overnight bus ride (the things you do for travel, ha) we were groggy but excited to get started. Since we couldn’t check into our Airbnb until 1pm, we decided […]
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 […]
Martha’s Vineyard
Hey everyone! As one last hoorah, my mother and I took a 3 day trip to Martha’s Vineyard before I move back to Spain for another year. Despite having a little rainy weather, we had an amazing trip. This was both of our first time visiting Martha’s Vineyard and we were able to explore a […]
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 […]
Viva la Feria
Hey everyone! It’s official, we’re finally State-side again for the summer. Although we are back in the USA, we have a few posts to finish up about Spain over the next few weeks. The first and most important is about FERIA! We actually went to two Feria’s this year, the most famous being Feria de […]
Monkeying around in Gibraltar
Hello everybody! For our last weekend away from Sevilla, we headed down to San Roque, Cadiz to visit one of my friends who lives there. 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 […]
Visiting Venice
Hello everyone!! The last leg of our Italian journey brought us to Venice! This city is amazing because of how different it is from any other place in the world. The entire city is built on a canal system and you get from place to place by foot or by boat. You could go an entire […]
