Welcome to Cairn & Compass!

Hi, I'm Ash! Three years ago I moved abroad (with Dan and our cat Cleo) to teach English to adorable children in Budapest, Hungary. The adventure has now brought me to Spain. Thanks for following along with my experiences and travel insights!

  • Finally an update from Bucharest!! 🇷🇴 Despite technically being on summer break, this week has been busy. We met our new coworkers and some of our future students, started the visa process, and ran around the city in search of a flat (no luck yet...). It's been hard to just relax and enjoy, but maybe we'll have some time next week ☺️ This photo sums up why I like it here: just like in Budapest, things can initially look a little rugged, but there are secret pockets of pretty everywhere 😍
  • Next up on why I ❤Spain ... architecture. I'm a huge fan no matter where I go, but Spain definitely has some of the best.
  • Big news ... in ten days Dan and I are on to the next adventure! Some of you know where, but for those that don't, I'll give you some clues. It's east, it's big, it's hot in the summer and cold in the winter, there are beaches and mountains, and there may even be goulash 🤞🏻🤞🏻🤞🏻Any guesses?
  • I've never felt so ready for a Friday 😅 There's only two weeks of school left and then it's summer vacation! 🙌🏻☀️🎉❤ In the meantime, here's my last photo from Granada to keep me going!
