Beach Party!

Valencia!





Taken by Caroline Marzano


What an unbelievable bank holiday I have had! The journey started off a bit shakey, turning 
up at the bus station at 7.01am, when our bus was meant to leave at 7. We somehow managed to get down to Valencia without any issues, with lots of hungry tums, and over excited young ladies.  As we bounded off the bus into the sunshine, we soon realised that Caroline had left her £300 glasses on her seat. TRAGIC. We had many other setbacks after that, including Megan's card nearly being swallowed, eating an awful burger by the beach, waiting outside a restaurant for 1 and a half hours until it opened, later to be told that they were fully booked for the evening. Despite a few minor glitches, I have had a very eventful, hilarious, relaxing time. 


My next few posts will be photos from Valencia and reviews on a few restaurants which we visited.

Barcelona Snaps

I've been up to my eyeballs lately. My TO-DO list is getting increasingly larger but I am slowly making my way through it. I promise I will write some more posts in the next couple of days, but for now, here is a selection of my favourite photos taken in Barcelona.

Dónde Está El Sol?!





Taken by Giselle Helene Elizabeth Boxer and Charlie Nikolai Gallienne-Schmidt

Madrid is such a beautiful city, but even more so when the sun is shining, and we haven't had much of that recently. So when I return to Spain on Wednesday, I will be praying for better weather. Here are a few photos taken by myself and Charlie in September and October when the weather was glorious!
