Spring is here and we can see the changes in the nature everywhere: the sky is blue, trees are green and a mild wind is blowing. Even though in some parts of Barcelona there is no such a huge difference in the nature between winter and spring, there is some special energy that comes with spring and everything starts to look prettier and better. Just before the spring comes, lots of people decide it’s time to eat healthier, to include more fruits and vegetables in their diet and to start exercising so they can be ready for the bikini season. I…
Spring is finally here. I know very well that waiting for weekend, vacations, spring or summer is always a waste of time and life and that we should embrace every moment and seize the day, but I can’t control the happiness I feel when I see the blue sky, white flowers and feel the mild wind on my face. So, I’m sorry for wasting my life waiting, but dear spring, I missed you so much, thank you for coming! Spring brings us lots of strawberries that I love so much so I’m trying to use them in every recipe I can. I…
Spring is finally coming and bringing us a lot of unforgettable moments to spend outside, lots of new shirts, dresses and shorts… Spring weather also brings some new energy which makes us want to spend more time in the Sun, exercise more and eat well. I’m sure the majority of you has already made an exercising and eating plan in order to get into those skinny jeans you’ve been keeping in your wardrobe forever. So, let’s start with the detox so you can be prepared for nice weather. I have a suggestion for a drink which can be the perfect start…
Do you know what snow smells like? No, it’s not just the smell, it is a mixture of scents, colors and a special holiday mood when it looks like you are magically transferred to one of the typical villages from Christmas cards. It smells like snow when it’s so cold outside that everyone is in a hurry to get home, when it smells like wood in the fireplace and when decorated Christmas trees greet us from the balconies. The smell of snow for me is the smell of happiness and childhood, it makes me nostalgic and I start thinking of a far away town and…
Summer is almost over and it makes me a little bit sad. Weekends at the beach, swimming and sunbathing will soon be over. But, it also makes me happy as autumn is a kind of a new start, a starting point to change your life, to start jogging, find a new job or spend an entire day under a blanket watching TV, and drinking hot chocolate when it’s raining outside. Before summer officially ends, I want to enjoy it just a little bit more, to spend some more time at the beach and enjoy sunrays on my skin. In my mind,…
The sky is pretty strange today, not completely cloudy nor clear. It is one of those days when you need a little extra energy to boost your mood, when you need more fruit and bright colors. Is there anything better to boost your energy at the beginning of autumn than a bright yellow mango smoothie? It’s like summer in a cup, if you ask me. Mmmm, as good as it gets. When I first tasted mango, I didn’t like it so much. I found its taste similar to the taste of parsley. I guess this will sound strange to all of…
I used to adore cow milk and I was able to drink up to 1l a day. Every single day. It usually wasn’t milk alone in my cup, but small amount of filter coffee mixed with huge amounts of milk. Very similar to Starbucks coffee, which I like very much, even though many people think of it as overrated, unhealthy and overpriced. I agree they can put various unhealthy additions such as different syrups and artificial flavors, and this way Starbucks coffee easily reaches the amount of calories of a whole meal. But, you can always opt for simple Caffe Latte, consisting…
