It’s the most wonderful time of the year, especially this year as we call the Málaga province home: we got to see the Málaga Calle Larios Christmas lights! This famous light show in Spain is a marvelous site and one that I absolutely agree it worth experiencing. The 2025 theme was the Belen so a […]

We had a few hours without a fútbol game or a friend to get together with or youth group at church to spare, so we hit the road to beautiful Cádiz. Located under a two hour drive from Estepona, Cádiz is Europe’s oldest city. I don’t know what I expected, but this city absolutely bedazzles […]

# hosted by Devour Food Tours We just finished our third food and drink # hosted by Devour Food Tours in Spain, and every tour ends up being our favorite. Every single experience we had with Devour Food Tours in Madrid was incredible, so it was an easy yes to consider doing a third tour […]

There has been so much confusion on where the Costa del Sol is exactly and what area it includes in Spain. Many people don’t realize that the area called the Costa del Sol actually makes up 107 cities, towns and pueblos, each with their own unique personalities. I wanted to create a list and highlight […]

Flytographer has a way of jumping from my heart onto photos and they have beautifully captured our journey since day one of traveling (and moving!) to new adventures as a family. One of the first things that I recommend families do when traveling or making a big life change is to hire Flytographer to capture […]

We’ve moved! After living two years in Madrid, Spain as an American family who became digital nomads, we now call a new area of Spain home: Estepona, Spain. Since we moved in July, this whole experience just feels like we’re on vacation so it’s hard to believe that living near the Mediterranean Sea is our […]

#sponsored; opinions are my own Can I tell you one of the biggest differences to us while living in Spain: dental cleanings. Honestly, the entire dental care system in Spain is just so different than that of the U.S. Right before we moved from Madrid to Southern Spain, we discovered a *gem* of a dentist, […]

#sponsored by Txango Tours; views are my own We had the best day with Txango Tours as their first-ever family to ride their beautiful sidecars through the calles of Madrid, Spain! Txango Tours, a popular tour company in Paris and Versailles, France, have officially extended their operation to Madrid, Spain. It was so much fun […]

#partner with Madrid Bravos; opinions my own For the last two summers while living in Madrid, our family has loved going to the Madrid Bravos games here in Madrid. Part of the European League of Football, Madrid has their very own team named the Bravos and the games are so much fun! Each experience feels […]

This past weekend, we had the bros’ final long holiday weekend before the end of their second school year here in Madrid. We decided to spend the weekend hopping on a the high-speed train and to look for rentals and around various areas in the Costa del Sol! Now that the bros are enrolled in […]

#hosted by Flamenco de Leones; views are my own It’s my 40th birthday! What a wild thing to be living in Spain, with no end in sight, as I enter my 40s. I knew I wanted to do something special with my person, my husband Logan and friends who have become family here in Madrid. […]

We had a wond erful (quick!) weekend in Canet d’en Berenguer, a small Spanish municipality along the beach near Valencia/Castellón, Spain. This was our third time visiting a suburb of Valencia, although our family ironically has never visited Valencia City itself. We’ve spent long beach weekends in Denía and Javéa, both by the Mediterranean along […]
