Hey guys! So long time no talk, eh? I know, I know, I should have updated you sooner - but moving country takes a lot of time and effort! I arrived in Madrid on the 2nd, but classes didn't start until the 17th, so I had a week or two to settle in, find my bearings and do a little sightseeing. Madrid is such a beautiful city, and I've done so much already - visiting el Museo del Prado, a tour of the Palacio Real and a shopping trip to Plaza Puerta del Sol and Gran Vía - to mention a few. However, I started classes on Monday so I'm getting a lot busier, and the touristy fun has come to an end. Oh well - it's not a holiday! Plus, I'm trying to plan exciting things for the weekends, so all is good. So without further ado, here are so photos from my first 2 weeks en España!
Gran Vía (Main shopping street.. think Oxford Street)
Snow on my first day of Madrid - a rare sight indeed!
My new bedroom :)
A lovely cocktail at HRC on Plaza de Cólon, Madrid
So there's a bit of a taste of Madrid for you all! There will be a new post up ASAP showing you a bit about the university I'm studying at here - Universidad Complutense de Madrid.
Hasta la vista,
Isobel xx
Looking forward to hearing what it's like to study abroad. Hope the start of classes went well!
