Hostal Serruchi Teruel

... the supermarket, had a beer while we watched the sunset and then back to Scooby for dinner. That night we introduced Val to Cranium. We had to improvise as you need 4 to play but we made it work with 3. The game is like pictonary and charades and hang man all mixed together. After an epic 2 hours we and only made it halfway around the board, we decided to call it a night, but ...

... I eventually get to Valencia. Good plan, eh? I'm a thinker.

I open up the stowage door and start packing it in the backpack. I left my little hand held bag at my feet. I had noticed there was a guy behind me on the phone. But there were lots of people all around so I didn't really give him much thought. He came a little closer to me and in my peripheral vision it seemed he too was putting something in the luggage area, just further down. Again, whatever. Suddenly ...

... Even the train station was decorative in this way. I constantly stopped to snap pictures of random buildings.
The only thing not so appealing is that only the center of the city is beautiful the outside looks like a rundown modern area. In the center you have all the old cathedrals, a marvelous common marketplace open every day selling fresh fruits and vegetables and on sunday outside there are many tables selling cheap clothes and other random ...

... domnu’ Dumitrescu ca ma prinde tauru’ si tot ma arde pa pept.
Doua saptamani m-o imbracat frate-miu ca nevasta nu sa atinge’ de mine.
Da sa stiti ca m-o sunat muierea aia Isabela si am obtinut contractul si o fost bine pana la urma.“

Intru-cat e criza mare in imobiliare, nu mai comentez, faceti si voi ce puteti… dar nu cred ca va va tine foarte mult in ritmul asta.

... is a certain process that I'm used to, a certain level of preparation that goes into saying goodbye to something, and it's all wrecked in this situation. I am coming to realize however, that perhaps it's good. All the excitement and anticipation just builds up, and all of the procrastinators have time to take all those pictures and save those faces to memory. It's one of those rare opportunities for a second chance.

... same tram was bursting at the doors with reveling Spaniards and tourists, clutching 40s of Amstel. Now the only proof of their presence is a broken door, permanently warped from the press of bodies packed too tightly. They were bound for the bonfires of Malvarossa Beach to celebrate the triumph of light over dark, the summer solstice. Before the Christians came along the celebration belonged to the Pagans, and the fires ...

... corporations trample an already suffering continent. And I don't think introducing super-corn to yet another plot of land is a good idea. I do think organizations need to map out what their priorities are, rather than just writing down everything they want and passing it across the table, and start setting realistic goals (dream on G8). More than anything though, they can't throw up their hands in despair and give up, because nothing is not better.

... homesickness¨). I guess the point of all of this is that my time here in Spain is disappearing rapidly, although I still have a month all-together I only have a couple of weeks here in Valencia, and I just realized that I am enjoying my time here, which is something I can't honestly say I've been certain of much of this time. I know this is a bit of ramble, but this ...

... but still nice thouh - a lot of little towers made out of red mosaicked brick. The whole architecture is different. I made it to the Plaza de la catedral - and I found it quite different than usually. Wandering trough that city you won't see any stores like H&M, Zara or Berskha....nothing like that...small boutiques but that is pretty much it - hardly any supermarkets ...

... the mountains of Sierra de Albarracin. We made several journeys in the splendid nature of "Los Montes Universales", a natural preserve with pinewood and peaks to 1700 m. It also is worth to visit the charming Albarracin, it has an interesting set of narrow medieval streets and a wall. A dramatic cliff above the Rio Guadalaviar is the perfect setting for this attractive cluster of mellow pink buildings.
