Feria de Abril
Hey everyone! Spring is quite possibly the best time of year to be in Sevilla. There are two big celebrations that happen during this time of year: the first being Semana Santa (Holy Week), and the next being Feria! We are a little behind on our blog posts but we wanted to share with you our […]
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

Cinque Terre
Hey everyone! As I mentioned in our Florence blog post, we were lucky enough to take a day trip with Ciao Florence to Cinque Terre! The name Cinque Terre translates to Five Lands, which is fitting, since 5 seaside villages are nestled into the cliffs along the Mediterranean. We were able to visit 4/5 Cinque […]
Firenze and Family
Hello there! Florence (aka Firenze) is a city of history, art and culture. I absolutely fell in love with Florence and I am hoping that I can give you a taste of this incredible city. We traveled to Florence from Rome by train on Sunday evening. It took about 2 hours on the high speed […]
Our Time with the Pope
Hello Everybody! During our stay in Rome, we were able to visit Vatican City. It was a great time to be visiting the Vatican because it was during the Easter season. This part of our stay in Rome was arguably the most incredible experience for me. Our first visit to Vatican City and Saint Peter’s […]
