Saturday morning after a long breakfast we decided to get out of Madrid together with my parents in law. We headed for the royal palace of La Grunja which was covered with a fine powder of snow. This used to be the summer palace of the spanish royal family. It was quite impressive to see, [...]

We were gonna check out some shops that a friend had recommended as well as just enjoying the sunshine and this lively neighborhood. We headed for Delishoes which was a cute little shoe shop. I [...]

I have so many photos and so little time so why don’t we have a look at this gorgeous boho inspired editorial from Elle Spain Feb 2011. I love everything [...]

We got some sunny days for just swimming in the sea and chilling out, watching the surfers patiently wait for the big waves. [...]

We’ve had an amazing week in the north of Spain making stops in small cities and villages along the coast of Basque Country, mostly it’s been such pretty weather. But one day we woke up and the sky was cloudy, so we took the car to the small fishermen’s village of Getaria. The dock smelled [...]

We came to Basque Country on Saturday and we’ve had some really lazy days here on the beach since then. We’ve spent time with family and friends, met our newest little family member and had insane amount of delicious food and wine. I have a ton of pictures but before going through all of them [...]
