We are having the best time here in Costa Brava & reaally don't want to go home.⁣⁣
⁣⁣
After being confined in an apartment in Madrid for months, and then not feeling safe to do much outside because the covid numbers were steadily increasing back up again, this has honestly been the reprieve our family desperately needed 🙏⁣⁣
⁣⁣
This morning we spent time soaking up the sun at the most gorgeous little beach, and later this afternoon we'll walk down to Plaja Canyelles for our daily tennis match on the beach. Afterwards we like to watch the sun set from our favourite spot on the sand.
⁣
Life is good, and I'm extremely grateful. ⁣
⁣
Hope you guys are all well too Xx

Wherever you are this weekend I hope you are having a good one!
⁣⁣⁣
We're still hoping for the borders to stay open between Spain/France/Italy for our upcoming trip in a few weeks time 🙏⁣⁣
⁣⁣⁣
We booked a vacation home for a few days in the French Riviera and afterwards we'll be staying in Lake Garda for a week.⁣⁣
⁣⁣⁣
We will be doing a road trip to avoid airports because it feels like the right thing to do for our family. Are we apprehensive, definitely, but life goes on and the best we can do is to remain mindful and to remember the 3 W's: WEAR our masks, wash our hands REGULARLY & WATCH our distance 🤩⁣⁣⁣
⁣⁣⁣
What about you guys, any plans Xx? ⁣⁣

⁣⁣⁣
Hope you guys are having a wonderful Summer inspite of everything that's happening..⁣⁣⁣
⁣⁣⁣
We are spending some time at the beach this weekend, and will hopefully spend some time in Italy & France in a few weeks time. It just depends on the numbers..⁣⁣⁣
⁣⁣⁣
Until then I'm going to reminisce about our time in Ibiza last year 🏝⁣

Whoohoo!! The EU borders are opening in less than a week and Portugal will be opening their borders on the 1st of July 👏🏻 ⠀
⠀
We have also almost completed our de-escalation process here in Spain, and yesterday we had around 180 new cases. What a relief to see the numbers come down!!⠀
⠀
This weekend we will be meeting friends for a picnic in Retiro & I can't tell you guys how good it feels to make plans again 😁⠀
⠀
We are also considering a trip to Gran Canaria in July & hopefully a road trip to either the French Riviera, San Sebastian or Italian coast sometime in August.⠀
⠀
We are however still apprehensive since being in strict lockdown for 3 solid months. Yesterday I ordered cotton masks from Etsy which will hopefully be here in the next week because wearing disposable ones in this heat is simply unbearable 😏⠀
⠀
Time will tell but one thing is for sure I can't wait to do 'normal' things again!!⠀
⠀
How about you guys, are you ready to travel again? Xx⠀
