  • 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…

  • Navidad

    It really is the most wonderful time of the year… Although it means things are colder, darker, and as a masters student I have lots of deadlines that I may/may not currently be procrastinating from, the festive spirit that sweeps through cities helps us all get through any holiday stress. And one of the best parts…

  • A month into my Barcelona adventure

    Photo from Dec 2015, but what I walk past every day to uni… Moving country and beginning at university can be quite hectic and time consuming, so my blog has been neglected for a while. But now I am quite settled, I am giving some life to my blog by writing about me, myself and…

  • Granada

    The final destination of my Easter trip to Andalusia was the beautiful Granada. The Semana Santa processions were winding up, but we still managed to catch some sights (including a Virgin Mary float that is carried solely by women). As the south of Spain has a huge Arabic culture, it was the perfect place to…

  • Cordoba

    After Seville we travelled to Cordoba nearby. We only stayed one night, as Cordoba is smaller than other cities to explore. Covering the city centre doesn’t take long, but there is still enough to see to make it a worthwhile destination! The top thing to see in Cordoba is the mosque – cathedral. It is unique as…

  • Semana Santa in Seville

    During the Easter break earlier this year I hopped in a car and travelled to the Andalusia region of southern Spain, swapping the cold north of Burgos for sun, sunglasses and the slightest of tans… First stop was Seville, which is often reported to be one of the best cities in Spain to visit for…

  • The Alhambra

      The Alhambra in Granada is one of the must see places if you ever visit the beautiful city. The Moorish influence of Spain is more prominent in the southern regions of the country than the north, and the Alhambra is an amazing example of this rich heritage. Except tickets are in high demand, and…

  • Seville Cathedral//Expired Polaroid

    Seville is a beautiful city in the Andalusian region of Spain, and the cathedral is a magnificent building! The day I took this was glorious and blue, but the use of expired film created a vintage effect that is no less beautiful.

  • Rainy Street in Madrid

    I didn’t take many photos of the weekend I spent in Madrid, but this was my favourite. I also liked how the black and white edit came out when I was messing around with the photo on Instagram. Couldn’t decide which I preferred so here, have both 😉

  • Hasta Luego Burgos

    Yep, I am writing this in the UK. It’s grey, my daily tea intake has already gone up, and I cannot wait to go to the pub (currently off alcohol for now so that has to wait…). Although the school year is nearly over, I had to return a month earlier than planned because my recent…
