Summer in Vlora
We are so lucky with the life we lead. This year, we spent the full Summer in Vlora, Albania. I didn’t really know what to expect of this country, because it was never on my radar before this year.

Itsy Bitsy Spider
Okay, today I’m going to write about something that a lot of people will recognize (or not). My fear of spiders!! I know it’s so silly to be scared of spiders, but I can’t help it! Ever since I can remember I was scared of them. It probably didn’t help that my sister thought it … Continue reading Itsy Bitsy Spider
