Fish tales part II: ceviche at home

June 14, 2016June 21, 2016 Danielle MillerExpat Life

After 7 months living in Lima, I finally try making ceviche with fresh ingredients from the market.

Fish tales: ceviche in the market

June 5, 2016 Danielle MillerFood

Continuing my exploration of Lima’s markets, Steven and I head to Lima’s Mercado Central in search of some good quality fish.

Colours of the markets

May 28, 2016June 4, 2016 Danielle MillerLima

SO, I think I’m slightly obsessed with Peruvian textiles… Everywhere you go, the markets are adorned with the vibrant warm hues of traditional blankets, ponchos, and the famous chullo hats.

Las islas ballestas – wildlife and the desert

December 22, 2015May 22, 2016 Danielle MillerPeru

This weekend we ventured south with Steven’s friend from work, Abel. It was really great to escape the city, get some fresh air and sun, and see a different part of Peru.

La lengua – learning Spanish

I had the most fantastic experience last night speaking in Spanish, so decided it’s time to write about language and tell you how I’m getting on!

La comida – eating our hearts out

It had to be the food….
A blog about Lima could start nowhere else. And yeah, it’s a long one…

When words aren't just words... I spent the afte When words aren't just words... 

I spent the afternoon (in between feeding a baby and chasing after a toddler) doing keyword research for a new client - checking rankings, search volume and competitiveness and using that data to steer the content I write. The end result will be words on a webpage, but words with a lot of weight behind them - driving traffic and boosting sales.

L'anse aux Epines Beach, Grenada! Not the most gla L'anse aux Epines Beach, Grenada! Not the most glamorous, magazine-cover-powder-white-sand, but this little hidden gem in Prickly Bay, is secretly my fav. My parents brought me here, with it's calm waters lapping the black and white sand, for my first swim in 1986. I have many happy memories here (under this old sea almond tree) over the years - birthday parties, summer holidays with cousins and more. And a few weeks ago I brought my baby boy here for his first swim. Many more treasured memories to come I'm sure.

Oh just look at that turquoise water! Grenada has Oh just look at that turquoise water! Grenada has so many beautiful out islands to explore by boat. It's one of my favourite ways to spend a relaxing day - the Caribbean sea, sunshine, white sand, and of course a rum punch! Check out my blog for @westindiesconcierge (link in bio), rounding up their private boat charter offers to Sandy Island, Saline Island and more. 📸 by @gerarddebruin at @brandetang .

Ready to dive right in! Stunningly beautiful, neve Ready to dive right in! Stunningly beautiful, never-ending, deep azure swimming pool at @hotelparacas. I'm reviewing the hotel for a US client so was lucky to spend a wonderful relaxing weekend enjoying their facilities and impeccable service, for once with hubby in tow. We did not leave the hotel (in particular the pool) all weekend. 
For anyone coming to Peru for an action packed trip of hiking and exploring the main attractions like Machu Picchu, this is the perfect luxurious and relaxing end to your itinerary before heading home.

Thank you so much for having me @hoteles_libertador .

What do you collect from your travels? For me it' What do you collect from your travels? 
For me it's art - whether small drawings or paintings from street artists, prints by famous artists from that place or random textiles. Convenient to roll up into a backpack / suitcase, the only problem is the effort it takes to get them framed and on the walls once I'm home! 
Just framed and waiting to be hung: The old map I bought from a street vendor in Sucre, Bolivia for about a dollar. She was dressed much like the Andean woman on the left, photographed by world-renowned fashion photographer, Mario Testino, purchased from his @museomate in Lima, Peru.

I imagine looking at these in decades to come and thinking back to our wonderful adventures in South America. .
