Shopping at the Capo Market in Palermo, Sicily

We spent about a month in Palermo, Sicily, and our apartment was literally in the Capo Market. While there were some negatives to this (fish smell in apartment, fighting through crowds when we left our apartment, etc.), there were also some positives (great people watching from our balcony, good location, etc.). You could buy many…

Shopping for Vintage Clothing in Lyon, France

Lyon, France is a beautiful city and there are a lot of vintage clothing stores there. The first place I visited was Look Vintage. I found two dresses I really liked, but I hesitated buying them because they seemed a little pricey to me at 30 euros each. I later discovered that was actually a…

I Tried to Shop for Vintage Clothing in Tirana…….. Again!

It took a while, but we finally made it back to Tirana. I cannot put my finger exactly on why, but I really love Tirana. It is a great city to just hang out, chill, walk around the lake, and drink some coffee. Of course while we were here I had to see if I…

Shopping for Vintage Clothing in Buenos Aires

In Buenos Aires there are both vintage clothing stores and second-hand clothing stores. It was nice to finally be somewhere I could shop for vintage clothing.

If you do a search on Google Maps of vintage clothing stores, some…

Not a Good Time to Be a Nomad

So this is a pretty bad time to be a nomad. The husband and I have had to deal with this whole Covid-19 thing while we are basically homeless. We have recently been taking a break from travel, spending the last six months in Guadalajara, Mexico. We had been switching from Airbnb to Airbnb, seeing…

Anybody Else a Fan of Velvet?

I originally started watching Velvet (a series from Spain) in an effort to improve my Spanish but then decided that I should switch from Velvet to a show from Mexico, since it seemed to make more sense to focus on trying to understand a Mexican accent. However, I was enjoying Velvet because I really enjoyed…

Finding A Great Novelty Print Dress in Kraków, Poland

We spent last summer in Europe and after Lisbon we headed to Kraków, Poland. I was not quite sure what to expect from Kraków or Poland in general, but one excellent surprise was that Poland is a great place to shop for vintage clothing. The Husband was quite accommodating and one day he took me…
