Barcelona recap


Well, first of all, I'm back. I didn't plan a break, but due to some personal problems and a little burn out I suffered, I had to take it easy. It ain't all glamour, far from it, I tell ya. But not to focus on the bad for the moment. I still owe you a recap of my trip to Barcelona. I was lucky enough to go on holiday twice in one month. Low budget holidays are possible! Me and my bestie took off to Barcelona, with little cash in our pockets. We split the cost of the flight and the hotel in half. On our way we dreamed of shopping at Zara.
Yes, we don't even dream big, Zara makes us happy already.
Big was our surprise when she couldn't withdraw money from any ATM in town. We only had some cash for food and metro. Quite and adventure, but luckily we planned on meeting with friends of hers, who were there on holiday as well and who could give us a loan. The whole scenario would've been a lot worse if it wasn't for them. 
Luckily we survived and had a great time, but only went to Zara to drool over all the goods and leave empty handed. It was hard, but we survived. For those who don't read sarcasm, I'm just kidding and there are worse things in life.

Anyhow, our trip was short, but memorable. We tried to see as many tourist sight seeing as possible in two days and spend one day in Lloret de Mar where the friends have an apartment.
I'm not going to divide the pictures into different posts and just going to post them all at once.

Don't let the clouds fool you, it still was hot.

I could've stayed there forever (ok, for a long time).


Strasbourg - A day to relax


As you are reading this, I'm already on my next trip to Barcelona. I've never visited Spain, so I'm very excited! Promising to return with many pictures.

In the meantime the last post about my trip to Strasbourg. On the last day of our stay we decided to relax a bit and just chill at a little park before one of the universities of Strasbourg. We had the whole place almost to ourselves. The university was closed for summer. I can imagine it otherwise being very crowded, as Strasbourg holds about 40000 students.
So we just lay on the grass, read our books and took some pictures.




Wearing: Asos dress, old sandals, Ray-Ban Laramie sunglasses, Michael Kors watch, Topshop earrings.







Could definitely picture myself living in that neighborhood.



Our reads. I finally read The Portrait of Dorian Gray and loved it. The lover is obsessing with Game of Thrones, such a devoted reader <3 p="p">

This is the end of my posts about Strasbourg. I had a really lovely and romantic trip. Hope you enjoyed my posts! Barcelona report coming up next.
