Happy weekend! Wherever you are and whatever you do, have a good one! 

West Coast

Hey guys! It's been a while since my last post but I'm so happy to be back to the blogging world! I hope you all are doing great and ready for summer.

Sharing some of the pictures from our road trip to Santa Barbara which we took while in California. Santa Barbara is such a wonderful, wonderful place! It looked exactly as I always imagined it, may be it looked even more beautiful in real life! We spent an entire day strolling around, drinking frappuccinos and eating cherries and strawberries from the local farmers market. While at the farmers market, Michael got me a bouquet of roses (it was my birthday!) which I brought all the way home to the East Coast. 

Hope you guys enjoy the pictures and I'll talk to to you soon! xo

p.s. this song has been stuck in my head for a few days now

Christmas time in NYC

Good morning, loves! I managed to go to NYC over the weekend and I'm so glad I did! Spent most of the time in the West Village, had the best hot chocolate at Cafe Minerva and a very delicious brunch at Jeffrey's Grocery (such a great place, highly recommend). On Sunday we went skiing (it was the third week in a row) and I can't wait until this weekend to be on the slopes again. I love that December surprised us with some early snow this year. You can't imagine how happy I get when it's snowing!.. xo 

Привет-привет! Как же я рада, что в выходные удалось съездить в Нью-Йорк. Нью-Йорк перед Рождеством просто сказочный! А когда идёт снег… Провела большую часть времени в West Village, ещё мне довелось попробовать самый вкусный горячий шоколад в Cafe Minerva. Очень понравился ресторанчик Jeffrey's Grocery, он небольшой и тесный (как впрочем большинство местных ресторанов), но там такая удивительная атмосфера, и ещё там очень-очень вкусно! Будете в Нью-Йорке - обязательно там побывайте. А ещё здорово, что декабрь порадовал ранним снегом в этом году. По какой-то причине, я становлюсь такой счастливой, когда идёт снег!.. хо

Ta-da! Finally, finally publishing a new post. This past weekend Michael and I took a road trip to the beach (probably the last trip to the beach this year). The weather was amazing — sunny and warm, so we enjoyed every minute of the last summer days. 

How have you been? Hope all is well! xo

*literally falling asleep as I'm typing this, it's 3:48am! Gotta get some sleep. 

Привет-привет! Засыпаю, но печатаю. Потому что дала себе слово подготовить сегодня пост, вернее вчера, т.к. уже раннее утро нового дня. 

В прошлые выходные ездили к океану, какая же там красота! И шум волн. И народу практически нет. Сказка, одним словом. 

Надеюсь, что у вас всё хорошо! У вас уже осень наступила? У нас до сих пор тепло и солнечно, только тыквы повсюду намекают, что пора осенняя на дворе.

Удачной всем недели! хо

Miami

I finally managed to put together somewhat of a travel photo diary of our stay in Miami. Miami, as usual, was sunny, bright and beautiful. Some new places and things discovered: the absolutely gorgeous  Vizcaya Museum and Gardens, Van Dyke Café and the delicious Cuban cuisine which we absolutely fell in love with! (don't remember the name of the restaurant we had it at) Oh, we also had the eye-popping Cuban coffee. It is seriously eye-popping! And I'm not kidding. 

The charming Española Way village has always been my favorite, I'm so glad we managed to spend some time there as well. It's incredibly lovely.

Hope you'll enjoy the photos. Have a great day! xo
