January 2023

In January of 2023 we took a few local trips around Aguadilla, Lares, Cabo Rojo, and more. In Lares we even stopped at the spot that we had at one point in time nearly bought! What nostalgia that brought up. So many moments of waiting, wishing and hoping for a life in Puerto Rico. And now we live it every day, albeit in a different area of Puerto Rico. 2023 marks a full 10 years since we made the giant leap to move our life completely.  Interesting the twists and turns of fate and choice.

Casa Mucaro- Las Marias

There are so many fantastical places and moments in Puerto Rico but Casa Mucaro in Las Marias has to be up there as one of the most intriguing I’ve seen! This place was built nearly all from scratch by the inventor, artist, and creative genius Bill Birdsall. Not only is it his personal residence, but it’s also a cave and labyrinth underneath and a termite structure above. It’s just incredible. Check out the pictures and video!

December 2022 -Navidad and Fiesta Jibara de Quebradillas!

Christmastime in Puerto Rico is always so much fun! Bright, cheerful, warm and loud, it’s about the opposite of the somber quiet home time it was in Colorado! This year we got to celebrate the Fiesta Jibara in Quebradillas and that was extra special!

August 2022

August 2022 was a little more chill as we didn’t take long trips but rather focused on local excursions such as to Anasco and other closeby spots. Lots of time was spent at home playing and growing.
