Well hello there! It's been quite a while since my last post! I suppose a worldwide pandemic will do that.

Una escapadita perfecta

This post is a bit of a #latergram, since it's about a trip from over a week ago, but I've been too lazy to write until now. Este post es un poquito de #latergram porque es sobre un viaje desde hace una semana, pero he estado perezosa y no lo escribí hasta ahora.  Last weekend, … Continue reading Una escapadita perfecta

Hola! I would love to make this a bilingual post, but I am battling a head cold or some obnoxious allergies, and I want to sleep, so this will be quick and in English only. This past weekend was a long one due to Costa Rican Independence Day on September 15. There was a whole … Continue reading Tortuguero!

A little taste of La Habana

June 5, 2017 / Michelle Lampinen / Leave a comment

Hola! Well, last week I went somewhere I had never really imagined myself going: CUBA! I had a personal day at work to burn, and I mean, when you have an extra day off from work, what better way to spend it than by going to Cuba?
