Oh . . . . hello!! We are Rocky & B-Rod. Welcome to our online space where we document our adventures.
Rocky is a yoga lovin’ sun sea and humidity seekin’ could eat mangos and coconuts everyday and be happy kinda girl.
B-Rod is a motorbikin’ good food lover who was once asked by our then 4 year-old niece why he’s so happy all the time kinda guy.
In 2012, we had a really crappy year. Not being ones to be very good at making plans let alone resolutions, we set the intention to have more adventures. Inspired by a couple of our travel lovin’ buddies who have a blog, we decided to document our “progress.” Through the years we’ve gone on long and short journeys separately, with friends and together. Some of these outings live solely in our own memories while most of them have been recorded here. Our travels as well as our blog has shifted and changed over the years as life, our opportunities and experiences have changed. It’s always fun for us to go on these adventures, to share them with you, but also for us to look back at what we’ve done and how we’ve changed since that decision in 2012.
So what’s with the name of our blog? What’s a Dela and what the frick are Frijoles?
Dela loosely translated in Spanish = give her
Frijoles in Spanish (pronounced free-hole-lehs) = beans
When we were in Mexico just before starting the blog, one of B-rod’s catch phrases at the time was “giver beans.” While on a tour, B asked the tour guide how to translate this. The tour guide came up with Dela Frijoles. The other Canadian guy on the tour thought it was hilarious. The guide didn’t get it. We’ve been using it ever since!
Welcome to our adventures – Dela Frijoles!!
