BECOMING NASHVILLIAN

You haven't seen Nashville, if you did not take at least three mural selfies. Popping up on every corner of the city, Nashville murals are taking over the city, offering some of the most instagramable photo ops in town. Find below my personal favorites....

Almost everywhere else in the world, bread in some form is the centerpiece of the meal. You can get pitas in Greece, tortillas in Mexico, naan in India, focaccia in Italy, baguettes in France and pretzels in Germany. But here in America it seems not alwa...

The truth is, although I like to picture myself as an adventurous mom, I prefer to rely on basic amenities and a minimum standard of comfort. The last time I slept in a tent was 20 years ago when I was attending summer camp with the scouts. But when my daughter kept n...

It took me three attempts in order to finally fall for this seemingly boundless city. During my previous visits I was somewhat blinded by the downside of urban expansion, air pollution and heavy traffic congestion. However this February we had the chance to experience...

We just got back from spending a week in New York City. I have visited the Big Apple many times before, preferably with my husband or my best friends (check out my friend’s blog post about our girls trip to NYC last December).

Although I kind of like my little son's blonde curls, I’ve always prefer...

These days, when the weather gets warmer, the birds start twittering outside the window and spring flowers emerge from the earth, it is tempting to start thinking about a nice picnic. I think there is nothing more relaxing than spreading your blanket on a green meadow,...
