Valladolid

We had a lovely time in Valladolid last weekend. Such a relaxing day trip. Valladolid is a Puebla Magica,which is a title to be earned in Mexico. It is a combination of history, landmarks, attractions, authenticity and overall charm of the place. It's my second time there (although the first time wasn't really the fullest full) and I think I definitely left a piece of my soul in there. While I don't really concider moving there, I would definitely love to retire there. The city has absolute charm on me. From the squares and churches, old but nicely kept buildings to museums and cafes - the place has it all. They even have a wonderful cenote in the middle of the city. Once a year Valladolid becomes a capital to honor the historical achievement of the city while fighting for independence. It is called a heroic city for that.


My outfit is basic but I think I utilize the rainy weather look the most. I actually also wore a jacket most of the time but it never got pictured. I was the camera-woman during the trip so these are the only photos I actually have. 
I best you want to see more of the city, not only the monastery insights so I'll leave you with some sightseeing. 
P.S. I can't really believe it's only a short-ish bus ride away from my home!

Levi's jeans

Cuidado con el Perro top

 

Have a nice day,

    1. I always go for jeans when I travel because it's always appropriate and is never too hot/too cold

  13. I love the jeans and t-shirt look. It is perfect for traveling because they are comfortable. Which I think is essential when traveling. Your posts about Mexico make me want to visit more and more. I have some amazing Hispanic neighbors, and they're always bringing me delicious homemade Mexican food (which is my absolute favorite thing) and it always makes me want to take a trip too.

    1. I know I am biased but I am sure you will love it here. I can't wait for Ada to grow a little older so we could travel further and explore other regions. The diversity here is HUGE and it interests me a lot.

Dia del Taco

Would you head to the city centre to stay in the queues to eat some cheap taco, listen to mariachis and watch lucha libre for your your birthday? Because that is exactly what I happily did! It was so much fun! I was very tired after but it was So worth it. I do hope to repeat it next year because March 31st is Taco day in Mexico. I do hope to enjoy it even more next time! As it was my birthday I wanted to wear something more flashy and festive. I went with sexy skirt, basic top and my most comfortable shoes. I felt edgy and beautiful. May be a little overdressed but who cares as it was my birthday! Who said 'taco'? I was wearing: H&M skirt (yes, i still kinda shocked they made such a beautiful and well made silky perfection) Doc Marten's Cuidado con el Perro top (I wear this shop a lot, but they seem to be so cute and affordable, I found a lot of joy in buying a top once in a while) Coach bag Necklace gift from my partner long before Fossil watch (last year'

A year of my life 2.0

It's been a year since I have moved to Mexico and honestly it still feels like a dream come to true to me. I am so happy and fulfilled here, it is incredible. I am half-way scared I might jinx it. I do pray I won't. I am also very happy how my adaptation went/goes here. I thought it might be useful to many people who relocate to a very different climate and also different culture (always applies) to share some of my tips. Each of them contributed to my well being here. I feel very local here. After all they joke Mexicans are born wherever they feel like. May be it was meant for me to live here that is why I adapted so well. Anyways, here is my piece of mind: 1 Have your eyes opened. Adapt to new reality. It is not your previous home with benefits, it is completely different. Don't expect it to be like your before-home but better in each and every position. 2 People at your new place and the place itself are not "them", it is called "us" now. Start with

Pool time!

It is finally warm enough for a pool! Can't say I am a water baby but it was very nice for me. And Just look at the super cute Ada Maria in her baby bikini. Awww, my heart melted. I definitely felt like a mom-mom in my one piece swimsuit with ruffles and a huge floppy hat. I mean, isn't it what fancy pool moms looked like when I was little. I am a little shocked to realize.. I am one of them now! P.S. it is not nearly as warm today or yeasterday but I am staying hopeful for hitting the pool or a beach  very soon.
