Welcome!

Thanks for visting Simply The Nest. I'm an English girl married to an Portuguese boy, and when I'm not taking care of our adorable toddler girl, I blog about our house renovation, DIY projects, delicious recipes, design, inspirational interiors, and family life in a Victorian Manchester nest. Oh, and Jack Russells (we have two). And our masterplan to move to France. Très bien.
