Family life
I’m not one who plans to take a particular type of photo. Apart from the times I shoot families, I only take the camera with me when I feel like it and I usually don’t think ahead of what I want to photograph. This doesn’t mean I’m not influenced by photos or moments captured by […]
I love flowers. I think you already know. My mum always reminds me that I never watered her plants when I was a child. Now I know for sure that I inherited my love of flowers from her, although I only became aware of it quite late. She’s got the most amazing terrace full of flowers […]
Every year, in September, as if it were Groundhog Day, I feel overcome by an uncontrollable desire to redecorate the whole house. I’m sure that happens to many of you, am I right? Most of the time, all this motivation turns into hot air. After a week, I’ve usually forgotten all about my projects which […]
Today I’m writing about what has probably been the most relaxing weekend of the summer. Isla Bonita – which is the name her owner, my dear friend Petra, gave this wonderful place in the Drôme, a region adjacent to the famous French Provence – brings together all the ingredients of an earthly paradise. Isla Bonita […]
I have mixed feelings about addressing maternity matters on the blog. First, because I’m not an expert and don’t want to become one or give any maternity advice.

Since we live in the countryside, I much more enjoy nature and the changing seasons. The funny thing is that nature’s always been present in my life: in my home village in Spain, in Geneva… But I didn’t see it before. At least, not as I see it now. Now I enjoy it with all […]
I believe it’s not a coincidence that I ended up teaching. According to my mum, as a child, I used to spend most of my time pretending I was a teacher. I used to place my dolls (or my brother, when he agreed) in front of my chalkboard and teach them I don’t know what. […]
I should be happy and grateful to have been able to spend eight months at home enjoying my baby boy. It’s a privilege in a country where you usually get a four-month maternity leave (yes, Switzerland is one of those countries – an opposite reality to Sweden, for those who mix them up). I’m really […]
I’ve been writting about our Florida trip in recent posts (the first one about the trip in general and the second one about Miami, in particular). This is going to be my last post and I’m going to tell you more about heaven on earth: the Florida Keys. The Keys is a Florida region you […]
In my last post, I explained why we picked Florida as a destination and today I’m going to talk about our first stop: Miami. It was my third time there (the first one was a business trip and the second one, as I mentioned on the previous post, took place when Inés was five months […]
