I often enjoy going to Barcelona from Montpellier because its only a four hour train ride which is also easy on the wallet. However, on one of my visits, I decided to hop off at Girona and take a local bus to Tossa de Mar located on the Costa Brava. Tossa is a small beach town with all the beauty of the Cote d'Azur in France but without the crowds and the prices. Not the place for you if you want nightlife or intriguing tales to tell your friends...it's a quiet family beach resort. However, for some needed rest and relaxation with inexpensive prices by the sea, its wonderful. As the Costa Brava is on a rocky coast, there was the possiblility to go hiking and discover amazing views of the sea line. As I write, I think Tossa was special for me because I really needed time to think about what would be, if any, my next move and here I was able to take the time and space I needed to make a decision.
