Hi! I'm here! June flew by in rapid fashion, but in part because we went to…
Europe, the continent that has fueled our sense of adventure and wanderlust for the past 10+ years 💕
I still recall our first European trip nine years ago when we explored the glittering streets of Paris during the start of our marriage.
On this trip we roamed the historic landmarks of London, savored the famed foods of Lyon, soaked in the breathtaking beauty of Lake Annecy, and meandered (and ate 🤣) our way through the vibrant streets of Barcelona. Each city has left its own unique imprint and memories. My top 5 including:
1. Taking a group excursion into the Spanish countryside to visit two family-owned wineries.
2. Eating tapas and cold beer in Barcelona during a warm afternoon.
3. Walking along the Lake in Annecy and soaking in the mountains.
4. Exploring the streets of London as the workday ended and people spilled into the pubs and street-side cafés.
5. Walking around Lyon in the early morning, latte, and croissant in hand.
One day, we'll be back, perhaps with our kiddos, so we can see their smiles get as big as ours.
But until then, I’ll enjoy my cava and Catalan tomato bread from home. And I’ll start buying croissants in bulk 💕
Side note, have you ever started eating something new, regularly, after going on a trip? For me, it would be eating at Pret a Manger on the reg and getting fresh croissants every morning ✨
