If you’ve been reading my blog for the past year or so, you know that I love a good old-fashioned road trip. There’s nothing like the feeling of the steering wheel in my hands and my favorite song on the radio while cruising at 70. Unfortunately, I don’t feel...
So I’ve been a resident of Madrid for 5 weeks now (how did THAT happen) and although I absolutely love living in the heart of the city, I was starting to go a little stir crazy. I missed changing leaves, fresh mountain air and feeling soreness in my legs...
