Ultimo Fin de Semana

So it's the last weekend in Spain, and the weather here seems to be reflecting exactly what we're all feeling here...sunny and warm at moments, and then suddenly, freezing and rainy. This past week and weekend have been amazingly fun, but still veiled with the sadness that we will never be able...

Athletic Club

So this weekend has been so much fun! On Thursday night we made it out to one of our favorite clubs for the usual Thursday night Erasmus party. It was 80s night or something of the sort, so it was fun listening to Michael Jackson and the usual 80s hits all night. On Friday morning, Summer and I...

So this weekend it's Carnaval! I have no idea what the history or meaning behind Carnaval is..but I do know that it's basically like Halloween, but without the trick-or-treating and with more serious partying. It's fun, but at the same time strange having Carnaval fall on the same weekend as...

Fútbol, Clubs, and Cool Kids

The other night I was talking about how we were able to see Real Madrid, one of my favorite teams, enter their hotel amongst a huge crowd of fans and onlookers. Well yesterday was the big game, and it was a very interesting experience. Summer and I were leaving the metro in the main Plaza, right...
