Hi there! I’m Kate Malone and I am the face behind Just Kate.
I am a Connecticut native, but I am about to enter into my sixth year as a European resident. In the summer of 2015, as a fresh college graduate, I packed a few suitcases and moved to Germany with my man so he could begin his career as a professional soccer player. Over the past few years, we have learned the do’s and don’ts of traveling and moving, attempted to master the art of adult-ing, and learned how to become a family while always on the go.
This is a place where I get to share the reality of what life looks like for us. Furthermore, I hope Just Kate will be your go-to gal pal for all your lifestyle needs. From travel and moving, to food, health, wellness, organization, and even marriage, I am striving to inspire you and encourage you to go after what you want so you can live your absolute BEST life. While of course, sharing all our experiences (the good and the bad) along the way.
My ultimate goal is to be totally and completely transparent while providing content all individuals can relate to. I also hope our embarrassing, funny, terrifying, and downright amazing stories will provide you with the entertainment you need to get through the week and make it to Friday. I want to share enough of our life in order for you all to see that we are just a normal family, working together to get through each season of life (and soccer). May we be a daily reminder that life can be beautiful, whether you are living a conventional life or not-so-conventional life. We are so excited to see where this life takes us and we hope you will join us on this adventure! So, grab your cup of coffee and let’s dive in! No need to feel overwhelmed because, well…I’m Just Kate.
