As we’ve mentioned before, MUP is behind on processing residency permits. Which is perfectly acceptable as they’ve had an influx of more of us coming and new regulations due to joining Schengen on January 1, 2023. We got word this week that our application process has started. We started our paperwork in April, so it’s …
I’m shocked it’s already June. This summer is passing quickly. Daniel and I are working on a new side project with a tight deadline on top of our regular work. At work we’re both on deadlines too. Our days consist of sleeping late, walking the dogs, working second shift hours for our American time zones …
I realized we hadn’t written here in a while to catch everyone up on our lives. We spend our weekdays walking the neighborhood, trying new foods, and working. Our weekends are filled with exploring further Split destinations, garden upkeep, board games, video calls to friends back home, and tourist watching. Daniel takes at least one …
Seven years ago Daniel and I became husband and wife. Nearly 14 years ago we became a couple. Around 17 years ago we met and became fast friends, and then best friends. Having Daniel in my life for over 40% and my life partner for ⅓ of it has made my life so much more …

We were very nervous about finding a pet friendly apartment in Split. The listing websites are difficult to navigate and don’t have a lot of options.

We spent a beautiful few months in Old Town Split right next to Diocletian’s Palace. January — March is beautiful and quiet in Old Town. The tourists start showing up towards the end of March and we didn’t want to stay in the middle of the tourist season in the tourist area. Living a decade …
Traveling internationally can be intimidating for so many reasons. Finding food you can eat is critical, especially when you’re working around food allergies and sensitivities. We’re also very COVID aware and prefer not to eat inside restaurants. Figuring out how and what to eat is always at the top of our minds wherever we go. …
We arrived in Split in the morning by ferry. The first views of the city were absolutely stunning. It was nearly impossible to believe that we would be living in this place that looked straight out of a fantasy novel for a year. For our first three months here we have an AirBnB apartment across …
