Good morning, Everyone! Super excited to share the very first post of 2015 with you! 
As I have previously mentioned Emil and I ended up spending New Year’s Eve in Carmel, visiting one of our favorite places in the whole wide world – the Carmel Valley Ranch resort. We discovered it by accident last Summer while exploring Northern California and fell in love the moment we saw it. Extending all the way from Carmel-by-the-Sea to Santa Lucia mountains, the resort is located on one of the most beautiful acres we’ve ever seen and offers a variety of activities like hiking, biking, running trails, golf and tennis. And since hiking is one of our favorite things to do, we ended up hiking for pretty much 2 days straight, exploring the vineyards, the bee apiary and of course the stables. I say of course, because we both love horses, so we spent at least a few hours there making new friends:) Seriously, how adorable are those ponies and of course the baby goat! Apparently everyone favorite little trouble maker!:)
If you guys are planning to visit Carmel, I seriously recommend checking out the Carmel Valley Ranch. A few other favorites included the Charcuterie plate at the Lodge restaurant, and nightly s’mores by the fire pit, accompanied by fresh apple cider!
