Memories of Nice, South France

Today, I am taking you to my beloved city of Nice, where I lived for some time. It was here where, I discovered lots of beautiful hideaways ideal for relaxing, all around Nice, from Monaco to St Tropez. 

Nice will always be close to my heart, as will all the wonderful places I have fallen in love with.
Not only Nice is a fantastic, sunny destination but the views and the beauty of this whole region is like nowhere else. 

Happy Weekend in Altea

It's finally weekend girls, yay! Here is a little highlight from this week. We went to this Spanish little town called Altea in the Province of Alicante.

It is charming, beautiful and very atmospheric, with whitewashed houses and cobbled streets, right up on the hill. There is a beautiful view over the Mediterranean as you reach the top. You can then wander around the little streets and enjoy a meal at one of the quaint restaurants.

There is also a beach with long promenade, cycle path, restaurants and boutiques at the foot of the hill. It is said, that many artists were inspired by this place.

What I'm loving this week

I'm loving this trend in the blogosphere going around 'What I'm loving Wednesday' reading about everyones' loves. So what have I been loving this week?

Basket love

If you follow me on Instagram you may have seen I mentioned in my stories about my love for wicker baskets. Yes this is true. I so wish I could just carry one the whole year but somehow they just fit in with the spring/summer styles only.

There are so many to choose from: big, small, round, small handles, long handles.. they lift my mood instantly.

First weeks in Spain

It has been a while since I last posted here, as things got pretty busy here. I was so lucky my mum came all the way over from Cambridge, to help me with children and the weather was beautiful. Sitting on the terrace was such a joy. 

It has gone a bit windy and cloudy the past few days but in Spain any weather is good, cloudy or not. Here you see me standing by the port in Denia, where many boats moor and there is a direct boat to Ibiza, Mallorca and Formentera. How fabulous is that?
