Mano de Hierro 18 Granada, Andalusia, Spain and Canary Islands, 18001, 34-958-203-828
We say goodbye to Barcelona today. Taking a ten hour bus ride from Barcelona to Granada. Our day started out quite relaxing. After checking into our hostel (Hostel Arroyo), we took a short bus ride to The Alhambra (more about the Alhambra on my next day travel log) - and see if we can purchase our entrance tickets for the next day. It turns out that the entrance tickets can be purchase only for the day of entrance. So that means we had to come back the follow morning to purchase our entrance ...
Granada, Spain chuckylee56This morning we woke up with the crescendo of power saw, sledge hammering, and the whining sounds of really bad singing! Yes, next to our lovely hostel Arroyo, there was construction in progress. At 8am sharp, the first sound of power saw cutting concrete blocks was the sound of my alarm clock! Now we just realize why our hostel caretaker was so nice to us... anyway, moving on to prepare our day. We walked up the Albaicin neighborhood area to do some window-shopping and the typical tourist ag...

... fall I saw colors of Autumn. I love it. When we arrived to Granada the first thing that went through my head was that it was quite different than Malaga. The bus drive parked the bus in front of our hotel which was in the center of the city and we had about ten minutes to go to the bathroom. I did that but then I thought that I would have gotten a better first experience in Granada by quickly leaving the group and walking down the road. I´m glad ...
Granada, Andalusia, Spain and Canary Islands skivail89... positive as I can, but sometimes it is really hard in this school of mierda.<br><br><br>Life in General<br><br>I am still trying to keep busy outside of school and it has been a great success. I have been to museums, free showings of films, and flip cup tournaments among other things. My schedule has really filled up with private classes and I now have about 8 hours a week of them! It is more than enough to pay my rent every month which is also a stress ...
Granada, Andalusia, Spain and Canary Islands juliannamargare... I had gone to complain about them to the Delegation of Education in the first few days and that my actions had consequences and that Maria Dolores had been calling them every week to see how I was doing... news to me!<br><br> The principal called me "caprichosa" which basically means flip flopper and this went on for about 40 minutes. I attempted to explain that I was an assistant not a teacher and I only work 12 hours a week so didn´t it make sense for it ...
Granada, Andalusia, Spain and Canary Islands juliannamargare... travail, je peux laisser mes pensées venir puis les laisser s'en aller... je récolte du maïs, puis désherbe le champ à la pioche; je grimpe dans les arbres pour cueillir des oranges (mmmhhh que de bonnes odeurs et de goûts délicieux); je désherbe un canal pour amener l'eau de la montagne dans les champs; je récolte du basilic, des amandes et je fais du pesto maison!!! mmmhh que c'est bon d'être en contact avec la terre qui me nourrit...
Orgiva, Andalusia, Spain and Canary Islands debdeb80... 11:01 on the door to my shoebox-sized room, and was still in bed. I sat up and reached to open the door (that's how small my room was), and told her to give me five minutes. She laughed and said she'd be downstairs. I jumped up, took a quick shower and threw on shorts, a t-shirt, and (yes!) sandals. The first time I'd put on such attire in Europe. We met up with some of her female friends for lunch, and I got filled in on all the Granada gossip, which consisted of dimeing out a ...
Granada, Andalusia, Spain and Canary Islands mavsqb11 de octubre Today was definitely a travel day. I had to go to Granada for orientation for the program I am in, but I also wanted to visit my host mom and walk through the city, so a couple friends and I took an early bus and got there around 10am. It was very nostalgic being back in the city. The first thing I wanted was the famous churros and chocolate, but unfortunately the café that I remember had the best ones was closed for some reason ...
Granada, Spain kwirky250... terrace straight to the Alhambra and the mountains behind. There were actually four apartments in this lovely house run by a half Japanese, half Spanish family who kept flowers on the terraces, used traditional décor, and put charm in every corner. Excited by our temporary home in Granada, we set out to explore. On our way down to the Plaza Nueva, we ended up on a street that looked more like Morocco to us than anything we ever saw in Morocco. (Why did we ...
