Hello Hive!

I’m Isabel, I’m 29, currently living and working in Mallorca, Spain, and living my best life lol.

Before you start wondering where my accent is from, here’s a mini-introduction about myself:

I was born and grew up in Mallorca, Spain, dad Spanish and mom Aussie. My mom always spoke to me in English and my dad in Spanish, but I used to talk in Spanish most of the time, which I regret now because I would probably have a British accent if I hadn’t spoken in Spanish.

I went to Australia for the first time in 2016, after I finished University, in theory just for a gap year, but I loved it so much that ended up staying there until March 2020.

Then, my mom told me to come back to Mallorca because we didn’t know what was going to happen around the world, so I packed most of my stuff and returned home to Mallorca for what I thought was only going to be 6 months.

I really wanted to go back to Sydney in September 2020, but things didn’t go to plan (I think we all know why) and I ended up staying here much longer. So that’s when I started working full time at the finca (professionally known as an agrotourism).

Ever since I was little, I used to help my parents at the finca, either taking the guests horse riding, cleaning the pool, or doing some gardening. Now though, I can say this is my full-time job, and I really enjoy it - No schedule, no boss (well, my mom is my boss but we get along really well), and working for myself :)

The finca has been in my family for 300 years, and they established it as an agrotourism in 1990. As for my parents, this was always a hobby, but now I’m trying to turn it into a proper business. There are many things that need changing, renovating, and generally turning into a more professional outlook.

So, if you’re interested in what is like running an agrotourism, most of my content will be based on this topic. I might do other vlogs that have nothing to do with the finca, like clothing hauls, furniture flipping, and travel vlogs… so let me know if you like them, and I’m very excited to post more content and to get to know you all.

Take care,

Isabel
