Beach Time and Paella in Valencia, Spain
When it comes to typical dishes from Spain, "Paella" is on top of the list and what a better place to eat it than Valencia, where “Paella a la Valenciana” comes from. Yummy! Another attraction in Valencia is the beach, of course. I was lucky ...
Oh look honey,olive trees…well I’ll be
... but as we spent the last evening at a hotel and it was only 4’ish, we decided to keep going to the north of Valencia and find a campground, which would make our next day to Barcelona a bit shorter. When we got to the north side of Valencia, ...
Signs

Valencia
Valencia, to tell you the truth, doesn´t have much to offer for a tourist. A bunch of expensive touristy cafes, a gigantic church that el Papa (the Pope) actually visited last weekend (we climbed to the top of the bell tower which was cool), and lucky ...
Paella Valenciana and Other Ramblings
After La Tomatina, I was dead to the world. I wandered around Valencia like a ghost on Christmas Eve, fighting off an ear infection but refusing to admit I had one. In an attempt at self-medication, I spent the whole day yesterday on the ...
A La Playa

Valencia being my first real exposure to Spain I didn't really appreciate how distinct it was (at least compared to other, larger cities) until after I'd left. While it lacked the crumbling majesty of Lisbon, there were more than enough old ...
