How to Find a Mom Group in Albuquerque
I eventually found my mom group here in Albuquerque, and they've meant everything. But it took months, and I only managed it because I had the energy to keep looking. In Denmark, a nurse simply puts you in a group of six to eight mothers nearby who gave birth around the same time. Here, nobody mentioned anything of the kind. So I built it — a free tool for New Mexico moms that matches you with 6–8 local moms whose babies are close in age to yours. No app, no account, nothing

9 Things to See in Amsterdam | A Three Day Guide
I just left Amsterdam, and I am absolutely blown away by how much I enjoyed this city. I have been sick of cities overall, just for all the traffic, people and public transport. But this city is different. I found Amsterdam to be extremely charming. I loved walking the canals, and the architecture is so cute. The colored buildings with oversized window shutters and tulips are to die for. I spent three days there with my little sister Adela, and I think it was the perfect amou

Intermittent Fasting Results | Here's What Happened
Intermittent fasting has become hugely popular in the last decade and boasts benefits including improved mental clarity, weight, and body fat loss, increased growth hormone, improved fat burning, reduced inflammation, and increased life expectancy. I have always been interested in manipulating my diet for increased health benefits; for the last six years, I've mainly eaten a dairy-free, gluten-free diet. But the idea that by fasting you give your body space to recover and reb

Whose Dreams Do You Follow? | The Toughest Relationship Question
It is one of the toughest questions you may have to answer in this world, and all for love. People ask me, or assume I have given up on my dreams to follow Rasmus abroad. But really, that is for me to decide. In relationships, often times both partners are equally driven and competent with separate minds and goals in this life. How then, at a young age, can you ensure that both people are fulfilling their true purpose in this world? I'd like to offer some thoughtful insight t

The Land of Mouth Watering Tapas | Málaga and Granada, Spain
My Weekend Getaway: Granada and Málaga I am really enjoying living so close to Spain. A trip to see my aunt and uncle is only a three-hour flight. I spent the last week in southern Spain hanging out by the beach and eating tapas. I actually went to take my CCSE test (the Spanish government portion) for my Spanish citizenship. I am 99% sure I passed, but we will find out in a few weeks. Spain reminds me so much of home and New Mexico. I love it. And I have to say, my Spanish i

Moving to a New Country Sucks
Moving to a New Country Sucks I want to be totally candid on my blog. I am also of the belief that being vulnerable is where you see the most growth in life. And I want to be vulnerable here. If you see my beautiful pictures and think I have it all, I want you to know that behind those incredible experiences are oftentimes tears. I know you can't see tears on my Instagram page, but you need to know that they exist. Our generation is all about posting the positive, great, but

The Ultimate Carry On Packing List | Spring Weekend Trip
I am headed to Spain on Saturday and I cannot wait! The forecast is looking sunny, and 60 degrees is sounding divine. I really should be working on my thesis paper right now, but I just finished packing my bag... And I cannot stop thinking about how efficient I have become! I have been trying to master the art of packing for the last three years. While I was working in college admissions, I was constantly flying around the states and living out of my suitcase. Now that I live

I'm Not Getting Kicked Out of Denmark
Or at least not yet, anyways. I know you had no idea... but I almost got kicked out of Denmark! The EU has a rule that says foreigners can only stay for 90 days within 180 days. And my 90 days ended on January the 3rd. Rasmus and I were scrambling to figure out how to get me to stay in the country. Lucky for us, I got a job! Having a job means I got a work visa. I started working for Ras' professional basketball team, Randers Cimbria, as a marketing/media guru and women's coa

Protect Your Eyes From Screens & Blue Light | Spektrum Glasses
*shameless product plug* Use Code “Lindley10” for 10% Off I spend a ridiculous amount of time working on my computer and phone. As a full time online student, social media marketer, and graphic designer— I live on screens. Recently, I really started to complain about my eyes hurting. At the end of the day they were red and I could barely look at the TV. I was also suffering from headaches and overall my head was feeling foggy and strained. Rasmus looked into getting me some
