Blog: Send The Bugger Back - 10 November 2009
I need to confirm this but my initial research indicates that the train to Madrid which takes about 90 minutes costs between 35 and 50 €, that’s ludicrously expensive. Buses look to be a lot cheaper but take ages so I’ll have to weigh it all up. The hostel is okay, the massive building has [...]

Blog: Barcelona Travel and Living - 5 October 2009
There is so much to do and see in Barcelona that the idea of taking a day trip from Barcelona seems a crazy idea. Why visit outside of Barcelona when there is just so much to do and see in the city itself, including all of Gaudi's attractions, the beach and the shopping.
