Is it possible to visit a quirkier, funkier country? If a festival solely dedicated to throwing tomatoes at people for 1 hour is any indication, I seriously think not.
I am a big fan of Valencia. The buildings are gorgeous and ahhh, the beaches. Spaniards certainly know how to live!! Restaurants and bars serving tapas right on the beach followed by walks along the beach into the wee hours of the night, this practiced by literally all ages. And when visiting, it is imperative to experience the outdoor night clubs near the beach, reminiscent of Miami, so I´ve been told. Me gusta esta lugar!!!
My hostel is quite scary, actually. The location is amazing, very close to the central market, which is the largest produce/meat market in Europe. Moldy smelling towels, a hot room with one measly fan, and construction add immensely to the ambience. But the price is right….only 30 euros!
The next adventure is figuring out where to explore next….Andalucia is on my mind. I´ll try my luck at the train station tomorrow morning and see if I can get to Granada, home of the Alhambra. If not, I´m sure some other adventure will present itself.
