When I first started this blog it was all about my journey with raw food; then it morphed into tales of our travels and my/our attempts to live a simple life. I have now written an article that has been published in Super Raw Life magazine about how I combine raw food and exercise with [...]

Opposites Attract…
Posted in Uncategorized on March 26, 2011 | Leave a Comment »
From the outside looking in I guess it would be fair to say that hubby and I are a good match and I’m not denying that we are. That we have a fair amount of differences is also true, but those differences help keep us on our toes and working on our partnership and heck; [...]
Time flies……

Time flies when you’re having fun or so the saying goes and that certainly seems to be the case for us. When we arrived here back in November the plan was to stay for 3 months but as with all plans we seem to have stretched it a little and we are now edging towards [...]

Hubby has been wanting to climb ‘La Maroma’ since we arrived here in November; standing at 6788 ft tall it rises up behind the campsite and dominates the skyline. We had planned to climb it on saturday as the weather was looking good and after the events on friday we decided that we both needed [...]
Tinker

We had to say goodbye to our gorgeous little ‘Tinker’ on friday. It was the toughest decision hubby and I have ever had to make. When we received the diagnosis two weeks ago that her cancer was terminal and that there was pretty much nothing they could do for her we decided that we would [...]
Glamour Puss…..

It’s funny the way we see ourselves isn’t it?? I’d always thought that I was a bit of a secret ‘glamour puss’ – pause for hysterical laughter from those who know me….Not in an obvious way (obviously!!) but I definitely thought that there may be a pair or two of Manolo’s in my future closet [...]
Cómpeta

A break in the rain yesterday saw us make a dash out and head off to visit the town of Cómpeta. Sat up up in the hills (like most places are around here!) it is the starting point of one of the walks for Maramo and so had an added interest for hubby in particular. [...]
Rainy days always get me down……
Posted in Uncategorized on March 11, 2011 | 1 Comment »
It’s raining, it’s been raining for days and it’s due to rain for at least another week. I’m beginning to realise that this is the downside to living in a caravan. We’re couped up and fed up and I need to have a moan about it!!! So, in no particular order and purely for entertainment [...]
Slow news day…..
Posted in Uncategorized on March 8, 2011 | 1 Comment »
It has been that sort of a week – nothing much happening, all a bit grey. Even the sun has disappeared on us. Since Tinkers diagnosis last week we have not felt like venturing far from home content to just be with her in case things deteriorate. That’s the trouble when you are given time [...]
Spanish Culture…
Posted in Uncategorized on March 2, 2011 | Leave a Comment »
Spain; widely known for its Flamenco dancing, bull fighting, beaches, sunshine and paella, it certainly delivers on all of those points but there is much more to Spain than the preconceived image that we all have of it. The Spaniards have a saying ‘Spain is different’ and I would have to agree that I have [...]
