escribo esto tirado en las playas catalanes. A la derecha, la muralla.
A la izquierda, la Minerva. Es la playa principal de Tossa de Mar,
medirá aproximadamente 200 metros de extencion y de la calle al mar
habrá unos 100 metros.
Esta muy bueno acá, hay sol pero no molesta, hace calor pero no
agobiante.
la parte urbana es pequeña pero muy linda, con callejuelas y todo muy
cerca!
desp escribo desde la muralla!

... Just to give a very brief background, Catalunya is a region that is in northern Spain (Barcelona is very much a part of it) and southern France. There is political tension here as to whether Catalunya should be considered a part of Spain, and those sentiments are displayed throughout the city through tags and such. But there are others who think that Spain is beautiful as an integrated, diverse country, whole and complete in its long history. (I ...

... genre potpourri à la lavande dans son appart, faire le tri, jeter pour se sentir mieux. C’est le feng shui, disait-elle.

Du coup, ce mois-ci, on fait du feng shui.

Première étape : l’appart de Toulouse. Quitter le cagibi actuel pour un beau T2 avec poutres et briques apparentes. Nouveau départ.

Deuxième étape : jeter les vêtements, tout ce qui lui appartenait et dont nous ne ferons rien. Eviter le fétichisme, les ...

... to completion. Amazing place. Full concrete factory inside the church and spending around 1 million euro per month on construction (but bringing in 50M Euro pa from tourists)

Sitting on the balcony now having caviar, beer and cheese with my sister and wife....does not get much better than this for our annivesary!!!

I take a bus to Tossa de Mar, a small beach resort on the way to France. It is along the Costa Brava where the hills meet the coast making for some dramatic landscape. My thought was to use a luggage check, explore the town. I have a reservation for a hostel in Girona for the evening so I have to catch the 5:00 bus. Well, apparently much of Western Europe lacks baggage lockers. I go to a hotel and they refuse to take it for the day (even for ...

Sleeping on the sand fully clothed was a new one for us and were forced to wake up by the sun rise. As the sun got higher in the sky we seemed to get more and more lazy until we just decided to stay another night. I´m 22 and still havent managed to learn the sun tan lotion lesson. As a result I now look like the inside of a water melon ...

As a special birthday treat me and Olly decided to buy 3 litres of sangria (less than a euro), 3 litres of wine (less than a euro), a bottle of vodka (less than 4 euro), and a bottle of random spirits (less than 4 euro). We then hit the beach for the first time. Cooking our food amongst the rocks we met a wandering Dutch guy who spoke perfectly English. He sat with us for a cigerette. We then got truly hammered ...

... girls dream with every kind of boutique shop, cosy cafesand fabulous mouth watering pastry shops. Cute bars and al fresco restaurants line the street of the old town giving it a lively feel. But what I hadn't accounted for in my last minute decision to come here was that Girona's football team, newly promoted to the sequnda division, were here tonight in the Placa del Vi. As I turned into the square a sea of red ...

... the extra days we thought we did, we can't head anywhere far because we are to be in Barcelona Thursday for Helen's arrival. So we see if there are any close day trips we could do for tonight. It turns out, Girona is in our Let's Go Book as a great day trip. We decide to just stay here. They have a youth hostel and it is great. Well Girona is awesome. They have a wall that surrounds the city, so that you can walk all around it like the ...
