Hi.
Welcome to my blog. I document my adventures in travel, style, and food. Hope you have a nice stay!

I’ll admit, I have multiple books about baking. Beautifully bound hardbacks, full of photographs that make my mouth water, but don’t get used for baking. I might not be alone in this, and for all I know, the publishers never actually intended these publishing masterpieces to get anywhere near flour.
There’s a lot of reasons the make Venice a special place to visit, and there’s a lot of reasons why you’ll probably only go once. Love it or hate it, it’s a very special city that is in rapidly escalating danger of disappearing due to climate change, so better go see it before it’s gone.
Tarifa, a refreshing departure from the hustle and bustle of large cities.
We’ve all seen them behind the glass, golden, flaky, rounded semi circles of goodness. Some with chocolate, others with shaved almonds, or the classic buttery friend that we all know and love. The croissant is truly an achievement of mankind.
France, one of the most romantic countries in the world, is also wedding ready.
If you want a place where you hear church bells on the hour, see white doves just casually hanging out in the back yard, and nothing else…this is a place where you can just, be.
Travel to Paris and get the most out of 3 days, and how setting expectations can be helpful.
First of all, I want to go on record as having said how much I enjoy train travel in Europe.
Did you ever watch that show, “Life Styles of The Rich and Famous?” Places and spaces so glamorous that they couldn’t possibly be real, or accessible to a regular person like myself. At least that’s what I used to think.
Watching the Great British Bake Off, is such a joy for me. It helps me unwind, and the co operative, pleasant attitude of the contestants, sorta recharges my introverted (i.e. People can suck) batteries. What it also can do to me, is make me brave enough to try making things I’ve never tried to make before.
I distinctly recall an evening, probably our second day, sitting on the rooftop terrace of our Airbnb. The sun was starting to set, the colors of the city were vibrant, and birds were swooping in the air snatching up their dinners. Somewhere in the city, someone was playing a guitar and singing songs, and while I don’t know what they were singing about, I remember thinking that they must have been happy.
I can’t stress enough, how odd it is to be standing on the beach, and literally be able to SEE Africa. A mere 45 minutes via high-speed ferry, the opportunity to set foot on the continent, was simply too good to pass up.
If Instagram has taught us anything, it’s that having the perfect outfit for the already enviable locations that you’re visiting, is an added perk to traveling abroad, but who’s going to carry it?
If you’ve ever been to Kansas City Missouri, chances are good that you visited the Country Club Plaza, a treasured outdoor shopping district, modeled upon the one and only, Seville Spain.
Memories live in food, and Basque country makes for sweet sweet dreams in deed. Try this recipe that I’ve come to know and love, and let me know what you think!
Believe me, I get it. Student loans, rent, credit card debt, there’s ALWAYS going to be a million reasons why it’s not the “ideal” time to take that trip to Paris, but you only live once, and I promise that a year from now you’ll find a whole new crop of reasons why it’s not the ideal time.
One of the best value destinations in Europe, Portugal should be on every travelers list.
