Ash in London!
Hey hey hey guys!!!
Well, here I am finally out of London and in VALENCIA, SPAIN!!! The weather is damn beautiful, it's 32 degrees at the moment and we are about to head down to the beach! Got into Barcelona on the 16th and spent two nights there. It is absolutely amazing. Couldn't speak a word of Spanish and apparently nobody here speaks English. Worked out the underground metro system and managed to get through Placa de Catalunya to Juame I which is near the hostel I was staying at.
Met the girls (Steph and Dani) at the train station. Was almost the best moment of my trip to date. You guys have no idea how close I've become to those girls, I basically lived with them in London and was so sad when they left. Seeing them again after over a month was just like a dream come true. They are so cool to hang around with I can just chill, and they sure know how to party as well!
First day in Barca we went to the 1988 Olympic Site, which is massive and very impressive. Then we went to Nou Camp, which is the home ground of BarcelonaFC (who won the Champions League for those of you that are ignorant :-p) which was damn HUGE gives the MCG a run for its money!
That night, we went out to a Tapas restaurant and a Flamenco dancing show, which was SO cool, so Spanish! Afterwards we hit the clubs and drank in the streets a bit!
The next day we did a bit more sightseeing, went to a building built by Antonio Gaudi which was really weird! That night, we went on a pub crawl and met these two awesome girls Alice and Courtney!
Then it was time to head to Valencia. Valencia blew my MIND. The cleanest city I have ever seen. The streets are all marble like inside a hotel. The centre of the city and the fountain are simply amazing (see photos) and just so nice to look at. We stayed in an awesome hostel overlooking a little spanish square with restaurants and had our own balcony! Went out the last few nights and we are staying home tonight to have a few drinks as it's my last night in Spain.
Anyway, back to London and work tomorrow. I will be in Germany in 4 weeks so no doubt another update then. Will put up the photos soon!
Take care all, please hit me back on my messageboard, love hearing from you guys!!!
