London was exciting and fast paced, crazy drivers, I saw a woman on a bike get hit by a bus, luckily not hurt but the traffic is crazy, dangerous. London is very cosmopolitan, men dressed nice, Metrosexual, everyone in a hurry, everything is very expensive.... Read more >

February, Spain-style

Wed, 28 Feb 2007 | By eitakg917 | Views [494]

Once upon a time, while it was blizzarding in Minnesota, I went to the beach. And not a scummy little lake “beach,” mind you: a real, live sand-and-salt-water bit of Mediterranean Sea. Tough life! It was to celebrate Andalusia Day, of course: Amy and ... Read more >

Mon, 19 Feb 2007 | By eitakg917 | Views [621]

So good to be back in Spain. It’s weird how after only a month, Anna and I were homesick for Granada while we visited France. What’s also weird: not being able to communicate! Especially after Madrid, where the accent is so clear, switching over to French ... Read more >
