Valencia 2 So I returned to Valencia with Corinne, my second time to this city. The main reason I was back here was I found a really cheap flight from here to Paris later in the week so I thought it would be a great chance to get some beach time and chill out. Plus I really like this city and last time I was here Matt and I just sat in an Irish bar everyday watching Cadel dominate the Tour. In my hostel I met a bloke from the Netherlands named Brend. We got alo...

Madrid We took an 11 hour bus from Porto to Madrid. We are always well prepared for long haul travel so we had my ipod and laptop stocked up with power and full of movies. We also had playing cards as well so the trip went pretty quick. We got in quite late to Way Hostel in Sol which is the funky area of Madrid.

Each day we went there we met the same blokes from Norway who were rooting for Thor Hushovd. THey were nice and...

We caught a train from Barcelona and got off at beautiful Benicassim, this place is paradise. Our Music Festival (FIB Benicassim 2011) was hosting us for the next 4 nights camping. We bought a tent, esky and mats for sleeping in Barcelona before we left so we were very set up. We met some nice people around us in the campsite, one in particular, Joanne from Sydney was a bit annoying. She kept tagging on to whatever we were doing and using our stuff, we got a bit ...
