Maria, mom, wife, illustrator & designer currently living in Valencia. Collector of anything quirky, addicted to coffee, the beach, VW Kombies and have secret jealousy for anyone who is super organised.
Proud of my mixed background, I have always been interested in the bohemian and nomadic lifestyle, places, people and culture. Fortunate enough to live in very diverse upbringing now that I am a mom, I at least try to give my child them same childhood, simple, with an open mind, out in the open air, and small adventures around the corner.
Continental Fairy started in 2008 as a family and mommy blog. Like many blogs out there, I started mine simply to jot down my thoughts and talk about what was happening at the time.
Since moving to Valencia in 2012 I have been concentrating on writing about our experiences and the places we go to. I also enjoy talking about new discoveries and other aspects of my life such as home, style, kids, places, geekery and anything else in between. :)
