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 […]

The Dragonpit in Italica

Hello Everyone! As you may have learned by now, Europe is filled with ancient roman ruins (as well as Game of Thrones filming locations). The south of Spain is certainly no exception and we took one of our free weekend days to explore the ancient Roman city of Italica. This ancient city overlaps with modern […]

Semana Santa

Hello everyone! Now that the orange trees are in bloom, the sun is staying out later and tourists are wearing shorts, we can tell that Spring is here in Sevilla! A huge part of Spring in Spain is Semana Santa (or Holy Week). Semana Santa begins on Palm Sunday (Domingo de los Ramos) and ends […]

Ronda & Setenil

Hello everyone! Two weeks ago, we took a day trip to two cities in the South of Spain: Ronda & Setenil de las Bodegas. We went with a program called We Love Spain, that does trips around the country, as well as to Morocco and Portugal. Our first stop of the day was Ronda. This […]

Life in Spain: The Good & The Bad

Hey everyone, Now that we’ve been living abroad for about a year and a half, we wanted to share some of the things we love (and some things we dislike) about living here in Spain. We’ll start with the bad… No Central Heating This might be the worst thing for us, especially since it’s winter […]

We currently work for a program called Up International and take courses online for a STEP Graduate Program at the University of Navarra. Since we are taking a class, we technically have a student VISA, which allows us to […]

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 […]
