Right from the start on the second day we had another hurdle. It was a hurdle similar to the first day. We had to re-find the route. We again got some very vague direction from the tourist info centre who didn't really seem to have a whole lot of an idea. But we felt like we were heading in the right direction anyway when we headed off. There were mountains in front of us which we knew we had to get to the other side of. When we reached the base of them we found ...

By the time Ness and I reached Santiago we were already hankering for some more walking. We kinda felt lost not doing so. We did however spend a few days in Santiago first. I still remember quite clearly when we got there. It was a grueling uphill walk to the centre of the town, just to make sure you had really earned it.

I'm currently in talks with a couple on Couch Surfing about road tripping it around for a couple of weeks. There is still a few...

Seville is probably my favourite place in Spain so far. Not even really sure why to be exact, just something about it clicks with me. The area near my hostel is a nice plaza with heaps of restaurants, cafes and bars which is nice. And actually unlike anywhere else I've been they actually seem to have decent bars here. And the main beer they have isn't even too bad either. But on top of that, there's plenty to do. I've already taken two different walking tours wh...
