  • Tarragona

    Another weekend, another beach day! I swear I do my studying during the week, so I have the weekend to enjoy myself and the increasingly brilliant weather here in Catalonia. This past weekend we travelled 1 1/2 hours by train to Tarragona (about 16/17 euros return from Barcelona). Trains are not very frequent compared to Sitges so…

  • Sitges

    Now the weather is much improving in already sunny Spain, friends and myself decided to take a day trip to the nearby town of Sitges, only a 30 minute train journey from Barcelona, less than 10 euros return. Sitges is incredibly popular for carnival, possibly due to the fact it is a great place for…

  • Brussels, Green politics and the EU

    I am a part of the 2017 Green Party UK’s 30 under 30 scheme, and first on the agenda was a three day trip to Brussels to visit the European Greens headquarters and meet our Green MEPs at the European Parliament. Before the official business we walked around to see the churches, museums, cathedral and all…

  • Geneva, Switzerland

    When a friend asked me if I wanted to accompany her to a weekend in Geneva, how could I say no? I had never been before but I had been told Switzerland is insanely beautiful. So the day after we got back from Sevilla we met again in the airport, for a new adventure. Although cold enough…

  • Sevilla

    I have visited and written about visiting Seville before, and just less than a year later I found myself retracing my steps in the city with new friends. We had just finished with exams so it was a welcome, relaxing break to chill and enjoy ourselves. We explored the cathedral, climbing to the top and exploring the…

  • Women’s March, Barcelona

    Cities across the world hosted these marches today to show solidarity with Washington’s own march, now that Trump is president. Barcelona had a great atmosphere, despite the drizzle. Although some people may think it pointless to protest when Trump is legitimate, but to me and others democracy is not about voting once every few years…

  • Parc Guell Revisited

    I did a post on Parc Guell a while back when I visited Barcelona for the first time. This time around a friend and I went to take pictures, because he had just bought himself a new camera, and I’m glad to have friends who are also into photography. We missed out the section you have to…

  • Fira de Santa Lucia

    Me encanta Navidad!! Christmas is the best, I love the decorations, the festive atmosphere, the excuse to warm up with mulled wine, and how everything seems a lot more cheerful (dreading the cold days of January and February without the festivities to keep me in a good mood…) And one of the best things about…
