Nh Las Artes Valencia

... completely forgot. I'm an idiot.

Gaby, I saw a flamenco show!!! It was AWESOME. I took like 10 videos so will show you them when I get back. And there are also lots of photos that I will post, too. The guy dancing was so animated, it was hysterical. But it wasn't supposed to be. I guess I'm culturally insensitive. But the music was incredible. I loved it. And then last night I went to a place with live jazz. The food was divine (photos coming) and I met up with 3 fun ...

... and things. Where I was staying it is a nice area with cobblestone and big square with fountains- the main one Plaza de la virgen with a fountain of Poiseidon. I made great friends here with the austrailan girls, a german, two dutch and a girl from norway and we went out together salsa dancing and also to the beach for the whole day following my arrival. For halloween it was quite a treat to see the whole city full of young kids dressed up. It was different ...

The whether was changing all the time. We were almost stopped by amazing wind, but other times the sun was shining and it felt like summer with 28 Celsius degrees max! We could still enjoy a jump in the sea and slept without tent every night!!!!

We met another crazy cyclists on the way again! With Jurgen or "der kober" we spend a nice diner at campfire and camped near the sea at Cala Morisca. Jurgen travels with ...

... arriving we set out on a mission to taste and enjoy - which we did! Valencian oranges (their trees lining all major streets and heavy with fruit), Horchata - a delicious drink made of ground tiger nuts - with fartons [stop laughing] - fantastic long pastries to dip into the horchata, and of course...paella. Knock-off paella, which is found everywhere else on the planet except Valencia, just isn't the same. And paella for ...

... ask for more directions. As a man…I was devastated. Finally, after 45min of driving around in circles, I resorted to using my own sense of direction and actually found a different and very nice campground. As a man…I was reborn.

All of a sudden, here on the coast, people started speaking English, German, French and Spanish, sometimes all in one sentence. The campground had all the amenities…little grocery ...

... toes or hair wet and we decided to stick to sleeping inside the tents. I had the honor to meet one of the local insects more personally... I found it crawling on my face... the smell of it sticked on my face for the whole day.... And of course I heard some wolves sneaking around and making everyone panic...but Kask cooled us down...it was only him. On the last day we managed to see the forecast while having coffee in a random cafe...it was clear we have to head to inland. Vineyards after ...

... years in Spain. There is no life-sentencing and no death penalty. THe professor says that the difference between the US and Spain is that US is more concentrated on punishment while Spain is more concentrated on rehabilitation. Whether or not that is actually completely accurate I don't know, but I thought it was interesting none the less. Even though crime has a less sentencing time in Spain, they have less crime than the US. Anyways ...

... coast reminds me of Hwy 1 in California but like 5x prettier. The cliffs are sooo high if you got in an accident there's no way you'd survive. I have to upload pics. So on the bus there was this girl and her boyfriend, both American, and the entire time the girl is grilling her bf on his mother and father's relationship: Girl: "How old were your parents when they got married?" Boy: " My mom was 21 my dad was 23" Girl: "Omg, wouldn't it be soooooo Fuuuuuuuunny if we went ...

It was during a break from Automation. We had all gone down to the coffee shop to get a bite to eat. These breaks always lasted a little longer than the teacher wanted. I remember this particular day because I was struck by my situation. I stood in a circle with a Valencian, an Italian from Milan, an Austrian, and a Norwegian. From all corners of Europe they stood to face the American. They all decided, collectively, that they didn't like the French. I ...
