Mercado de La Imprenta, a hidden gem in Valencia. Tucked away in an alleyway, out of the tourist path, frequented only by the locals, this place is really pretty and ideal for a cold beer or artisanal vermouth. We had both, while waiting for the restaurants to start serving… After starving for a couple hours, we were finally rewarded with a very tasty sushi and a bottle of Ribera del Duero wine.
Finally, a simple and elegant solution to my blogging anxieties: weeknotes! Instead of spamming people’s feeds with short updates on movies and dinners, I’ll collect everything into a weekly post. I still get my little corner on the internet to yell at the void, while keeping my own timeline cleaner.
I started following a Mediterranean Diet. I’d like to lose some weight, but my biggest motivation is to eat healthier and try different foods.
A month ago I went to Andalucรญa. It was amazing, I visited castles, went to two fancy restaurants, took a million photos telling myself I would make an online gallery, maybe even print and frame a few… and I still haven’t downloaded, edited or even looked at the images. It’s a struggle! ๐ท๐บ
Iโve been blogging on and off since the early 2000โs. Iโve blogged about linux, going to university, movies, programming, photography, moving to Rio de Janeiro, moving to Sweden, moving to Spain, gardening, traveling, learning to play the piano, learning to sew, learning esperantoโฆ
Sadly, none of those blogs are alive today and I think the main reason is I was misguided by the idea that โyou need a nicheโ. I tried to put all the things I enjoyed in my life into tiny individual boxes.
This weekend we went to the xmas market at Ciutat de les Arts i Ciรจncias. I’ve been there many times before, but I hadn’t seen it during sunset and blue hour. The colors, the reflections, the shapes, it was so inspiring! ๐ท
Today we visited Chelva, a really beautiful pueblo that is known as Valencia’s Chefchaouen (a city in Morocco). In love with all the white and blue! From there, a quick hike in the Ruta del Agua trail.
Yesterday we went to the beach. There was no one around, we could run off leash, smell the fresh air and dip our paws in the Mediterranean!!
