Spain

Though it has been over six months since I have returned from studying abroad in Spain, I never got around to posting about it. I really, really loved it and am forever grateful for the opportunity to study a language and culture which I so love.
The vast majority of my time was spent in the Cantabria region (north) in Santander, Spain. I also ventured to Rome, Italy for a weekend and spent a bit of time in San Sebastian (gorgeous) and Bilbao (mi favorito). Though I had some trouble with the food (I am a pescaterian, so I only eat fish and mostly vegetarian food), I enjoyed trying new foods and exploring the country through it's interesting (albeit often strange) cuisine.
I have hundreds of photos of the gorgeous scenery and art in Northern Spain, but I will only post a few, so as not to over saturate you all. Enjoy :)






that's eel...very, very yummy :)

ps. Speaking of Spain...is anyone else obsessed with Gwyneth Paltrow's GOOP? I'm on the mailing list and I eagerly anticipate Thursday mornings, when I can open my e-mail to see another slew of delicious recipes, or favorite hotels, or tips on holistic living. It's my not-so-guilty pleasure.
