Chicago Now. Trying to live a bilingual/bicultural life with an ocean between my legs.
The perks of having 7 soccer practices a week. 🌿🚜🏖️ Las ventajas de tener siete entrenamientos de fútbol a la semana. #chicago #lakemichigan #lagomichigan #brothers #siblings #hermanos #dandelions #abuelillos #spring #primavera
It took its sweet while, but Spring is finally her It took its sweet while, but Spring is finally here, and this little guy couldn’t be happier about it. “Take me to the lake!!!” is what Chicagoans scream as soon as the sun warms up our faces. So I obliged. In case you miss it, the most important thing in these photos is the crane on the top right of the last photo. 🌿🌺🏗️ Este año ha costado, pero por fin ha llegado la primavera. Y este pequeñín está encantado. En Chicago en cuanto el sol calienta, todos queremos ir al lago. Y ayer lo pidió a gritos. Que sepáis que lo importante de estas fotos es la grúa que se ve al fondo a la derecha de la última foto. #crane #lincolnpark #chicago #fosterbeach #toddler #spring #woodensculpture #leadwiththeheart #likegrandpa

I have been hibernating for the last few months, n I have been hibernating for the last few months, not feeling like going anywhere. But today I had to run some errands, and we got to try a new coffee shop in the neighborhood. I have to say that it felt truly European, and both the vibe, the coffee and the pain au chocolat were perfect. The kind of place that will lift anyone’s mood. 🥐🇫🇷 Llevaba todo el invierno en plan marmota y con pocas ganas de salir, pero hoy tocaba hacer un recado, y como la cafetería nueva del barrio quedaba cerca, hemos ido a verla. Casi casi me ha hecho sentir en Europa. El sitio precioso, el café bien hecho, y la mejor napolitana de chocolate que he probado aquí. Y mira que he probado napolitanas… #chicago #lincolnpark #armitage #coffeeshop #bakery #bollitos #frenchbakery #pasteleriafrancesa #painauchocolat @maisonparisienne
