After several hours of playing around with my new Canon Rebel EOS XSI and taking pictures of various nonessential objects in my bedroom, I decided I need to step away from the camera! My ‘new’ camera arrived yesterday from Quakertown, Pennsylvania. Since my old camera died a slow death about a month ago, I had to start my search somewhere. Gotta love eBay!
My lack of a camera has forced me to focus on other endeavors. The new GUIDE section links to posts I have already written, as well as guides that I will be writing as time goes on. I apologize for the “coming soon” pages, but Rome wasn’t built in a day. The GUIDE will consist of anything from travel tips, food guides, street guides, and site maps. I really hope you enjoy and welcomes any feedback you may have.

I am very happy this week because I was able switch over to WordPress from Blogger. Seeing as I’m not really an expert at HTML or PHP (or any other intimidating techie acronyms), I had to play around with the design. I oh so humbly pat myself on the back for learning the little bit that I did without banging my head on my keyboard. Did you know that you have to wait 5-7 days in order to switch from one host to another? News to me.
But alas Gringa Española is up and running under the same domain, and with a different look. There is a new photography section that I will be updating. For the new design I choose the Thesis Wordpress Theme. It gives me the flexibility that I want and helps a fledgling blogger like myself deal with all the intricacies of WordPress.
Hope you enjoy the new design!
