On my final day in Barcelona I had to check out at 9am. I was partly annoyed because it meant I had to be up early and I was partly grateful as it meant that I had to be up early. Given that my flight wasn’t until half six that evening I decided to head … More A Week in Barcelona – Day 7 (And A Bonus Day)
I’ve clumped days 4, 5, & 6 into one place as those were the days I was at a convention, so I didn’t actually see much of Barcelona those days. I will write about the convention, however I’ll put that in a separate blog post. On day 4 I had some errands to run before … More A Week In Barcelona – Days 4, 5, & 6
Day 3 was another “mini road-trip” day, and possibly my most favourite day of the entire trip. We went all the way out to a little town called Girona and then along to a beach town called Tossa de Mar afterwards. Girona is an absolutely beautiful city, in fact it’s so beautiful that they filmed … More A Week In Barcelona – Day 3
For the first time this year I’ve managed to miss a Sunday blog, so this is a Sunday blog on a Wednesday. I’m blaming it all on the absolutely crazy weekend I had. However this blog post isn’t really about the weekend, though it is partly about a series of events that led me to … More Do You Ever Feel Like A Plastic Bag, Floating Through The Wind?
Vic & Besalu On my first full day in the city I had agreed to meet my friend after she finished work at lunchtime, so after spending the morning getting ready and managing to navigate the city’s public transport system I ended up in Terrassa. From there we drove up to Vic, as part one … More A Week In Barcelona – Day 2
So I think it’s fair to say that Barcelona has stolen my heart just a little (also they have some pretty cool conventions). Almost two months after my last trip to this incredible city and I’m back again and once again I’m staying for 6 days. This trip I wanted to document my adventures, though … More A Week in Barcelona – Day 1
If I’m being honest, the richest I’ve ever been is probably right about now. Or more accurately, about a month ago, before I spent quite a bit of my money on a load of stuff. Some of it was needed, however some of it was definitely just impulse buys. Being at this point has come … More #67. The Richest You’ve Ever Been
Dear Dad, Happy Father’s Day. I hope you don’t mind that I haven’t got you a present or a card. If I figure out how to send things to the afterlife, I’ll get right on it. Is there an afterlife? I write these as if you can see them, as if you can read them. … More Dear Dad (Happy Father’s Day)
I’d like to preface this by saying that I don’t think I’ve ever truly been poor. I’ve had times where I’ve had to watch my spending and had to cut back on luxuries, little things like that. I’ve never had to worry about a roof over my head, or where my next meal is coming … More #66. The Poorest You’ve Ever Been
Friendship is one of the most fundamental aspects of human nature. It’s also one of the most complex. We’re encouraged from infancy to make friends wherever we go, but despite the fact we have so much encouragement making friends isn’t always easy. In fact, sometimes it feels damn near impossible. There are whole articles, books, … More #65. Friendship
