Welcome to our HOME!!!

As I wrote in my very first post, after my husband and I got married we moved to Chicago to start our journey! It has been 6 months since then :) and we have enjoyed a TON living in such a GREAT city!

We have been lucky to have had family and friends visiting over and staying with us. This is actually what inspired me to write today´s post! Also My hubby told me it will be a great idea to write about it ;)

....as always trying to give my beautiful followers useful tips about miscellaneous  topics :) ...


Get ready to receive your guests and built memories together!!!


The main goal is to add small touches that let your guests know you care :)

1. Prepare a nice and comfy bedding set and make sure you have plenty of clean towels on hand.

2. Don't let your guests go hungry, offer them snacks and drinks or encourage them to help themselves. Here is a list you can use when is time to do some groceries on that matter ;)

Fruits
Strawberries
Grapes
Kiwis

Veggies
Celery
Baby carrots ( do not miss a ranch dip  on the side)

Salty Treats
Peanuts
Olives
Prosciutto
Crackers/nachos
Dips (spinach, guacamole, humus, huancaina maybe? - if you don't know what this is shoot me an email!)

Sweet Treats (my favorite part!)
Dried fruits
Chocolate bites
Raisins
Chocolate covered pretzels ( I LOVE them!!! )

Drinks (alcoholic and soft drinks)
Sodas
Ice tea (add diced strawberries and kiwis)
Orange juice
Lemonade
White/Red wine (you can also add some diced fruit and make it a red or white sangria!)
Rum/whiskey (keep the hubbies always happy!)

3. Is nice to have a list of suggestions about some places to visit and things to do, but keep always in mind to ask your friends what they would like to do. Think about a scenario if someone isn’t used to walking around all day, a visit to a major museum may not be enjoyable!

You may also want to think about fun things you can do at home when you all want to rest for a bit after and all day tourist journey (which can get exhausting sometimes) so take a break and plan something fun to do together such us watching a good movie, cooking an amazing dinner, playing a board game, or if you have a pool ask your guests beforehand to bring their bathers so you can go swimming!



Enjoy your time together and have fun!!!!
