After visiting Toledo I had one last day in Madrid and I really didn't do much. It was a bit of a downtime week. I think I just needed to rest my body, write some blogs, do some work, and chat to some family and friends. The plans I had mentally been making, just...
VEGAN EATS: Madrid
I'm getting better! I think there is only one photo here that I made a teeny tiny start on before snapping for this post. Okay it was 2, the desserts, I just tasted them before photographing. I completely forgot and didn't take a photo of the doughnut I went out and...
DAY TRIP: Toledo
Today I took a day trip out of Barcelona and made my way to Toledo. I booked a ticket on the fast train which cost about $36.50(AUD) for a return trip. It's a 30 minute train road from Madrid-Puerta de Atocha station. From my hotel I got on the Metro and traveled a...
From Barcelona To Madrid
After visiting Monserrat and getting back to Barcelona I had a pretty chill evening. I did however, visit a laundromat for the first time ever in my life. Pretty exciting to wash my clothes from the last week or so. It also meant that the next day packing everything I...
VEGAN EATS: Barcelona
I've tried to lift my food blogging game since Bilbao. I would say overall I have done slightly better at remembering to take photos before I have started eating. Of course there have also still been times that I have just not taken them because I was more preoccupied...
DAY TRIP: Montserrat
Before leaving Australia, going to Montserrat was one of the few things I was certain I wanted to do when visiting Barcelona. I am so glad that even after a few packed days I decided to get up early once again and make my way to the Metro. I had to head to España...
DAY TRIP: Figueres
It was an early start on the 28th June. I was catching the metro by 7:30am making my way to Barcelona-Sants train station. Here I was catching one of the high speed trains heading to Figueres. A return ticket for this trip from Barcelona cost about $60 (AUD). The...
La Sagrada & Park Guell
On the 27th of June I had booked myself in for a day of walking around Barcelona and taking in two popular sites. I started the day making my way over to La Sagrada Familia. I now understand they hype a bit and why everyone I know that has been to Barcelona and has...
Barcelona Walking Tour
I was up early on Sunday morning, did some work and then got ready to head off to a walking tour I had found and booked through AirBnB Experiences. Luca was the guide and he was fantastic! Super friendly, so informative and by 1pm I knew more about Spanish, Catalan,...
Exploring Barcelona
On The 24th of June I left Bilbao and made my way to Barcelona. As I had a bunch of flight credit left from the cancelled end of 2020 trip I was flying there via Madrid. There is a bit of flying back and forth on this first part of the trip, but it had to be done to...
VEGAN EATS: Bilbao
I've decided to try and do a bit of a vegan food focus blog series on each place I visit. I'm hoping that these improve a bit with practice because I am not a food blogger, as you will tell from these photos. I don't think to take a photo of my food until I have...
Art in Bilbao
My few days in Bibao were a wonderful way to ease into the travel life. It's a pretty chill place and siesta's are something I have embraced. Not so much the actual nap but the resting. Especially as my body clock has well been set to Melbourne time. After heading out...
