In 2011 I moved to Madrid, Spain. I was working in the capital city and studying a Master degree in Spanish. Along the way I tasted local cuisine, attended cultural festivals, traveled the European continent, became a public transport expert, met a ton of international characters, learned to speak a new language, and laughed more than I thought possible at the life of a blonde expat in Spain. And most excitingly of all, I fell for a Spaniard, got married, and moved back abroad to England.
