I can't believe it. My volunteer service is over, time really flew by. I can still remember the night before my flight. I hadn't been this panicked since my math final exam in...

Exciting ten days have passed since my last post. I don't really know where to start. Best at the beginning, as some know-it-alls would say. So... last week was really...

I haven't been back in Spain for very long, to be precise, five weeks. But it already feels much longer because I've experienced a lot. I still get along great with my new...

It's been 38 days since I've been living in Premiá de Mar. I had originally planned to write a blog post every week but so far, that hasn't worked out too well. I live in a...
