The Rain in Spain: March 2011
http://rainnspain.blogspot.com/2011_03_01_archive.html
Modern tales of quixotry from the land of la vida loca. Saturday, March 5, 2011. I'm in Madrid right now, hanging out with my friend from Germany who I studied with here, and I'm fairly certain last night was the first night I had 8 hours of sleep since before Ireland. I'm so sorry this has gotten out of hand; so, before I write the Ireland post that you all deserve, I will write a string of words and phrases that describe the last few weeks:. That's all I can do for now, but I will update soon.

The Rain in Spain: June 2009
http://rainnspain.blogspot.com/2009_06_01_archive.html
Modern tales of quixotry from the land of la vida loca. Thursday, June 4, 2009. About a week and a half after Mom and Dad left, my friends and I found out that we were getting a long weekend (every weekend is seriously a long weekend in May in. To the point where they use the word “puente” or ‘bridge’ to jokingly refer to the tendency of madrileños to stretch the weekend out). So, on Wednesday 3 friends and I decided to go to the. It ended up being a great decision. It’s just not interesting enough...

The Rain in Spain: April 2011
http://rainnspain.blogspot.com/2011_04_01_archive.html
Modern tales of quixotry from the land of la vida loca. Thursday, April 7, 2011. Anyways, I know you guys want to know what I’ve been doing on travels, but also about the day-to-day. So, I had a really great (normal-ish) day today and I thought I’d share. I woke up around 6 to catch the 7:09 train in to school. I actually like that train because I know the regulars. There’s the motley crew of Russian(? In other news, I found out yesterday that I get to go to the Aquarium with my school in a couple of...

The Rain in Spain: July 2010
http://rainnspain.blogspot.com/2010_07_01_archive.html
Modern tales of quixotry from the land of la vida loca. Wednesday, July 28, 2010. One of my best friends went to Europe after our high school graduation and saw this poster on the street in Barcelona:. She (obviously) had to take a picture of it and send it to me because the name “Maria Figueroa” is really similar to my name, and, well, basically it’s funny to imagine that I had a secret career as a child belly dancer in Spain. Years later, we’ll still reference little. Sunday, July 18, 2010. Just to ori...

Modern tales of quixotry from the land of la vida loca. Tuesday, March 17, 2009. Lisbon, why did our ancestors ever leave? Okay, I should go get some Smithwicks (if they sell it) and celebrate St. Paddy’s day! PS Lisbon might be better than Barcelona. Wednesday, March 11, 2009. Also, we sat around in a park for an hour or so that was really gorgeous in the sun. I shouldn't judge Segovia on account of its weather. though snow is obviously such nonsense! Friday, March 6, 2009. Some of my friends were going...

The Rain in Spain: Bunyola Forever!
http://rainnspain.blogspot.com/2010/11/aaand-were-back.html
Modern tales of quixotry from the land of la vida loca. Tuesday, November 30, 2010. Sorry- there’s no internet in Bunyola so the last few weeks have been quite rough! You’re all a bunch of wise-guys, aren’t you? So, what have I been up to? Where in the world is Breezo San Diego? The whole time was pure comedy, but more like one of those comedies you watch half-laughing and half-cringing, like. Hmm what else have I been up to? 160; Last week, school was filled with Thanksgiving presentations, which went r...

Boots of Spanish Leather. Never heard this version before, but I like it! 160; Tonight, I’m going to a Halloween party at my friend’s cottage in the village of Sineu, which is as mom so eloquently put it, “the belly button of the island.”. Friday, October 29, 2010. View of the island Sa Dragonera from Pas Vermell. The main course (.

Modern tales of quixotry from the land of la vida loca. Tuesday, February 17, 2009. Barcelona, where I was meant to be born (.not that Rochester isn't great). Speaking of birth. happy birthday, SARA! Okay, so, I went to Barcelona for a long weekend (Friday morning to Monday night). I flew into Barcelona's Girona airport via RyanAir. I was wondering why it was relatively cheap and I found out why! Girona is more than 100km away from the city's center! Anyways, Barcelona is an incredible city. There. ALSO ...
