Madrid was a good time; I really liked it. Very large, much more international, not quite so “Spain” as Granada. Day one was the Palacio Real (the royal palace), walking tours of our part of the city, and really, really good food. Wow, yum, everything.... Read more >

Arcadia explores España! Obviously, considering our past adventures together, we began this one by staying out late the night before. We rock so much at life. It wasn’t bad, though, cuz five hour bus rides were made for snoozing, and the thirteen of us ... Read more >

Oh, poor Spain. It’s snowing all over lately, and no one knows what to do! It’s a piece of Minnesota for me, but my window neighbors look so concerned! The temp’s in the 30’s F and suddenly there are more scarves than faces on the street. Babies have ... Read more >

News: there’s a salsa club like 2 minutes down the road from us! It’s all free (except, obviously, the bar) and there are lessons Monday/Wednesdays from 10-midnight. So pretty sure in six months, I’ll be a regular dancing queen. A mini grupo of us went ... Read more >

In honor of Whitney’s birthday, and because we rock at life, the Arcadia group (also Vince and Jonathan) went out the night before a 10:30 hike to Sacromonte! So being awake today was a lot of fun, and the year-long trek up the Gypsy hillside. Sacromonte ... Read more >

Lazy lazy lazy lazy lazy lazy day. But it’s not always necessary to be a frantic/crazed American tourist, now is it? I was out til 4 last night with all my (mostly American, I’ll admit) amigos, so there is nothing wrong with cozing up and watching some ... Read more >

I can't believe it has only been a week. I have already done so much! We went to the Catedral and the Capilla Real on Saturday, and the Alhambra again Sunday. You can see the conflicting religions so clearly in the art and architecture here; it's so interesting! ... Read more >

So I know you guys were afraid I'd finish week one without falling over. But worry not! Feeling awake, well-rested, and generally healthy, I tripped over a pedestrian marker and completely wiped out. It's my new favorite thing to arrive at class bleeding ... Read more >

Friends: I am in Granada! Why, do you ask? Because I am just that cool.
Getting here was quite the trek. Minneapolis + Chicago + London + Madrid + Granada = almost 24 hours of nonstop fun. Lucky I met Brint in London, otherwise I probably would have ... Read more >
