I’m a firm believer that success is not measured by wealth but by experiences and happiness. 

Travel doesn’t have to be expensive; we used to backpack around the world for less than $50/day. 

Life does not end when you have kids, and kids are capable of alot more than you imagine.

  • We recently stayed at a beautiful Airbnb in Valencia, Spain 🇪🇸 and we all enjoyed having it as our temporary home. 

With high ceilings and an open concept, the loft is a rare find in a big city like Valencia. It has 3 queen beds, large cushy sofas, a big dining area and even a work desk - perfect for digital nomads like us. 💻

It’s located next to the hip Russafa district and the lush Parque Central, steps from tapas bars and supermarkets. We spent €150/night for this place, which we found pretty reasonable.

Comment AIRBNB and I’ll dm you a link to the apartment.

P.S. We paid for the stay ourselves, just wanted to share this rare find with y’all!

  • I might be biased as my husband is from Spain and I lived in Spain for 7+ years… but I think Spain has the best food in the world! 🇪🇸 🍷🥘🍤🫒

Our recent trip back to Spain felt like a culinary journey, where we had all of our favorite dishes (mine’s seafood!) and probably ate more than we should. 

We had paella in Valencia where it was meant to be eaten, fresh mussels right on the beach, perfectly grilled octopus just off the grill, tangy snails in Madrid, and way too many tapas to count.

We ate our way through Madrid, Calpe and Valencia and returned back to Mexico with our stomachs and hearts full. 

📌Save this list for your next trip to Spain!

Madrid

Arroceria d’stapa — the best arroz con bogavante (lobster rice) I’ve ever had!

@Txapelamadrid — amazing pintxos and traditional txakoli from northern Spain

@Loscaracolesdeamadeo — excellent snails and old-school vibes 

@Cavabaja17 — yummy tapas in lively La Latina

Calpe/Javea

@Safra.calpe — amazing seafood on the beachfront of Playa de Fossa

@costamarifach — great prices, comfort food at the base of the Calpe peñon

@Calabandida — set right on the marina, their black-ink fideua was to die for!

@Lulubeachclub — stylish joint with gourmet food and man-made ‘beach’

@Calaclemence1 — hip, lively spot perched over Cala Portitxol

Valencia

Mercat Central — Touristy but excellent jamon, fruit and oysters 

El Paeller — Amazing paellana valenciana (with rabbit and chicken)

Osteria Pedrin — The freshest oysters Ive ever had!

  • A few summers ago, Alberto and I spent 2 blissful weeks in Greece, just the two of us. And it was truly magical! ☀️🔱🏛🧿🌊🧜🏻‍♀️🇬🇷

Sailing the Ionian Sea with @yachtgetaways, we spent our days snorkeling, paddle boarding and exploring gorgeous Greek towns. For the first time in years, we actually had time to nap, read and simply do nothing. 🤿🛥️🌊🌴

By the end of the trip, we felt refreshed and truly rested. It was the break that we never knew we needed!

What are your plans for this summer??? Travel, hit the beach, or simply do nothing?

  • Facts that don’t match our IG feed:

1. We are not full-time travelers; we consider ourselves semi-nomadic, traveling often from our home base in Mexico. 🇲🇽 

2. As much as we love travel, we also enjoy having a home base and community. Living somewhere really allows us to immerse deeply and learn about a country’s culture. 

3. Like other families, we have boring days at home when we do laundry, clean the house, and take care of household chores. It’s not all beach days, mountain hikes and road trips! ⛰️

4. Both Alberto and I work full-time remotely. But that also means we need to be always connected, which can be challenging when we travel to remote places. 🛜

5. We hardly get real vacations (only at Christmas or when we’re in places with no wifi). We work even when we’re traveling. Sometimes it can be stressful and tiring. 👩‍💻

6. Despite being a travel writer and blogger, most of our travels are self-funded. We get hosted in certain hotels but we mostly pay our own way these days. 🌎

7. We don’t homeschool our kid; we make the most of school holidays and take Kaleya out of school often to travel. 🧳 

8. We’re not super wealthy and don’t have any trust funds — we work hard, we don’t spend money excessively, and we manage our finances well. 💰

9. Kaleya was born in Spain, then we lived in the Netherlands when she was 2-6 years old, and Mexico from 7-10 years old. When people ask her where she’s from, she always proudly says Spain! 🇪🇸 

10. Now that Kaleya is 10yo, it’s easy to travel with her! She packs her own bag, reads on her Kindle during downtime and walks everywhere with us. But there are still days when she complains, refuses to walk, and wants to do nothing. 🤪

Just trying to keep it real! Who else can relate to these?

  • My parents taught me to dream big ✨— that anything is possible as long as you work hard for it. That big dreams aren’t just for other people — they’re for anyone who’s willing to go after them.
⁣
That stuck with me.

And now, I want my kid to grow up seeing that too. I want her to know the world is huge and full of opportunity. That she’s capable of chasing whatever lights her up inside.

So we travel. We say yes to adventure. 

Because the best way to teach her to dream big… is to chase my own dreams.

  • Everyone talks about South of Spain but have you heard of these beautiful beach towns in Costa Blanca on the eastern coast? 

I lived in Spain for 7+ years (my husband is from here) and we’ve been to many beach destinations all over the South of Spain but they can get really busy. 🌊

We love how glorious and quiet the beaches and historic towns here are at this time of the year! These spots are just 1-1.5 hours from Valencia and Alicante, easily accessible by car or bus. 🏝️

📍 Altea — Voted the most beautiful old town in Spain, topped by a stunning cathedral 

📍Calpe — A laidback beach town dominated by the iconic monolith, Peñon de Ifach

📍 Javea — Quaint village surrounded by stunning coves, sea cliffs and beachfront restaurants

  • 20 years on, we’re still traveling hand-in-hand… now with our kid in tow! Life would probably look very different if I hadn’t gone on exchange, met my husband, and got hooked to travel. 🌏

Funny how a small decision can make a huge difference in life. So glad I chose this path — I wouldn’t have it any other way!
