Throwback to the time we visited Plitvice Lakes National Park in Croatia. This is probably one of the most gorgeous national parks we've ever visited, and we wish we'd had more time to explore it. Whenever you're in Croatia, you should leave the Croatian coastline for a day or two to explore the nature hidden between its mountains. TIP: There are organized tours that'll get you to the national park, but if you rent a car and go on your own, you'll be able to visit whenever you want and – *this is key* – avoid most crowds in the process. Not to mention, you'll get to drive through the stunning Croatian mountains at your own pace. 👀⠀

Market street life in the narrow streets of Valença, a town just on the other side of the border between Spain and Portugal (coming from Galicia).⠀

When traveling, do you ever visit the local street markets?⠀

Robert and I got to Vigo a couple of weeks ago and we're chilling here for the rest of the summer. After 2 years on the road, we thought that now was a good time to listen to our bodies and start taking care of ourselves a little more.⠀
⠀
Maintaining a healthy lifestyle while traveling can be challenging: every time there's a new destination, you're changing your daily routines, trying new foods (or avoiding new temptations), attempting to squeeze in exercise and switching up sleeping patterns sporadically.⠀
⠀
After prioritizing travel over rest for so long, we ended up neglecting our bodies and well-being... so now we're piecing it back together. As of now, we've found proper work spaces that have helped us set boundaries between our personal and work life. For the time being, Robert is back at it on the basketball court while I'm starting my journey into the world of yoga. 🏀🧘‍♀️⠀
⠀
All of this without letting go of one of Spain's best traditions: weekly meetups (if not more) with friends or family alongside delicious tapas and beer/wine. 👌⠀

Travel makes one modest. You see what a tiny place you occupy in the world. - Gustav Flaubert
This was definitely the highlight of our time in Mexico. Some of you have already seen some pictures of the beautiful Holbox –  but if you haven’t, we’re happy to introduce you what we think is a perfect beach escape in the Yucatan Peninsula. Crystal clear waters, laid-back vibes, and go-carts for moving around. Can’t wait to get back to Mexico and visit Holbox again!
Before we start posting pictures from Holbox (our favorite spot in Mexico so far), here’s a shot from the top of the pyramid in Coba 🤗
