The Rhythm in Spain is very different. I am getting used to it, but that doesn’t change the fact that it is different. It seems to me that Spaniards wake up around noon, eat a light breakfast of bread and ham, and then set about their day. A second meal is eaten around 4 pm, [...]

Next time I go to Alicante, I stay at the Popeye Pension
I was astounded to walk down the street in Alicante when I was about to leave town. Long time readers may remember that several months ago I proposed that we start a new religion dedicated to Popeye, Yogi, and Felix. Well, perhaps in Alicante, [...]

I am now in Grenada and will update on Alicante and my day here in Grenada soon, but finally, after waiting for an internet connection that would allow me to upload it, here are the couch questions with my hosts in Barcelona: Julian and Elena and Ruben.

Valencia was a fast stop and Alicante even faster. Made a great new friend on the bus, Julio, a juggler from Mexico who has vagobonded everywhere it seems. We got sandwiches upon arriving in Alicante and then I played harmonica while he juggled on the beach. We found a place to stay for 15 Euros [...]

It was nice of the saints to pose with me for this picture in the Cathedral, don’t you think?
Here I am in Valencia, Spain and while it is a beautiful city, I have to say that it doesn’t have that incredible something I felt in Barcelona. Of course, I leave many friends behind in Barcelona [...]

I admit it. I’m fucking knackered. I’ve slept about three solid hours over the past three days, but I’m not complaining. It’s been fantastic. Everyone I’ve been meeting and talking with, hanging out with, and getting to know. The Roman Invasion was a bunch of couch surfers from Rome who decided to all come to [...]

I could easily spend muchlonger here, but it is time to move on. i´m typing on one of these terminal machines, so pardon my brevity and mistypes. Barcelona has been wonderful and i leave here with new friends from Spain, [...]

I looked yesterday for a place to get my shoes shined, or for the shine boxes, but so far, I’ve yet to see any shoe shine service in Barcelona. I think perhaps Spaniards are more practical and shine their own shoes, or refuse to wear shoes that cannot be used for football. We will see [...]

In Barcelona, one need only look down to find amazing art.
I was pretty bummed to have to book into a hostel my first days in Barcelona but it turns out to have been beneficial in a few ways. First of all, it gave me a chance to wander around and get lost on my own; [...]

Yesterday someone asked me what it is that makes me love Barcelona so much so quickly. there are lots of answers I tossed out. The food, the weather, the architecture, the language, the people….but really it comes down to a certain aesthetic. I don’t know if it’s a result of being a place where so [...]
