European living, curated itineraries,
and my favorite weekend escapes.

I’m Dani, a California native
who made a home in Barcelona, Spain.
I came to Barcelona for a nine-month study-abroad program. A year later, I moved back, just to get it out of my system. Nine years later, I still haven’t left.
When I’m not working as a freelance content marketer, I’m out testing new wine bars, chasing whatever workout studio just opened, or hopping on a weekend flight to somewhere in Europe.
