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...
From Melbourne to Bilbao
Well, here I am in Bilbao. After 3 flights I have finally made it. Well technically I arrived yesterday but after going for a wander and finding some food, I eventually made it to my room, showered, and passed out. So that's where I am now, lying on my bed about to...
Two weeks til go time!
It's getting close and it's starting to feel real. It's almost time for my Natventure. In the past week I have started booking tickets for some of the sites I want to see. This has definitely helped build the excitement and realisation that this isn't just a fantasy...
Era of epic
Yep. It's a pretty epic era. We're living through crazy times! And I am just over here all Omniwhat while I keep planning my escape overseas. The lockdown shopping and beginning of booking this trip has me now in serious work-save mode. I bookended Flavius's Subspace...
Booking has begun!
It's happening. I have started to make bookings. I managed to locate all the flight credit vouchers I had from when the trip of 2020 was cancelled. It's been interesting as this time round I have made my travel plans based on the flight credit and how I could best...
