The best face sunscreens I’ve discovered this year

The best face sunscreens I’ve discovered this year

Sunscreen is one of those items that we all know we should be wearing, but that we all rarely do. We know that it’s an essential to protect our skin but it’s also quite often greasy and sticky and therefore not something you want to apply to your face daily. Over the years I have discovered two products that work great for me on the face sunscreen front. A little heads up neither of them is sticky or greasy, so you are probably very curious about my best face sunscreens now, right?

My refreshing homemade peach iced tea recipe

My refreshing homemade peach iced tea recipe

Summer started off with a heat wave this year; the sun is shining and I literally cannot remember the last time it rained. The fact that summer is here also means that all the best fruits are back in season and I’m living for it. Peaches are one of my favorite summer fruits to cook with. They are just so versatile. They work great in salads, but also make a killer dessert and work perfectly in drinks. This weekend I made homemade peach iced tea and even my boyfriend who had his doubts beforehand, was sold. Time to share the recipe.

Italy on my mind (the Florence guide)

Italy on my mind (the Florence guide)

As part of our Italian roadtrip my boyfriend and I decided to pay Florence (also known as Firenze) a visit. Florence wasn’t really on our radar so we went there without any expectations. The only reason why we planned a few days in Florence was the fact that my boyfriend really wanted to eat a bistecca alla fiorentina, or in other words a huge steak from a specific type of cow (not kidding). Sometimes the trips you plan without expectations turn out to be the best ones, because we thoroughly enjoyed our stay and all the amazing food places Florence has to offer. I hope you enjoy reading our recommendations in this Florence guide.

I read great things about Lisbon and it was high on my wishlist so in May, during my move, my boyfriend and I decided to have a little break in this beautiful city. I hope you enjoy this Lisbon guide.
