I first fell in love with Spain in 2006, and I’m back! I’m currently working as an English teaching assistant in Villarrasa, Spain, near Seville, and it’s been fantastic so far! I’ll be here for a school year before returning to the world of social media marketing in L.A., so this blog will not be [...]
You may have noticed yesterday that Twitter was swept up in a Nigel Thornberry frenzy. Curious as to why this character from The Wild Thornberrys was such a sudden hit, I researched the topic and found that he had become the subject of a number of musical remixes inspired by the first one created by [...]
ICANN announced Monday the creation of new business-based domain suffixes (imagine going to coke.coke instead of coke.com), and the Internet went crazy with this news.

I had a great idea to start doing Music Mondays where I recommend awesome music to my awesome readers, but, hey, look at the time, it’s already 30 minutes into Thursday, so welcome to my first Music Mursday. I’m kind of super obsessed with Spanish music and am always hoping to discover new Spanish artists, [...]
When I first tried tortilla española, or, as it’s sometimes called, tortilla de patatas or just tortilla, while studying in Spain in 2006, it immediately became my favorite food. And I only fell for it harder during my 2009-2010 school year spent there. I can no longer walk a few blocks to the supermarket Día [...]
