Holding On

I have tried to hold on to Barcelona for as long as I could… Even so, it was not long enough, and I still think of that Palm Trees lifestyle and with summer coming up, all I can think about is that I want to escape to a place like that and stay there for the whole summer! Even if Belgium gives me chocolate, it also gives me so much to learn. And, you know I love learning, but as a student, you know that time comes when it’s sunny outside and you have to stay in and study for exams. Yes, it’s not the ideal situation. So, I must say, even if it’s not that sunny, I miss England and its practical system, where not everything is about exams and theory. But, no more complaining! I will just take it as it is and enjoy my last few weeks here, on Erasmus. I cannot talk about leaving yet, because it seems unreal, so I’d rather go on and on about these exams and everything that I need to study. Truth is, even with all its bad sides, I don’t want it to end. So, as I am still holding on to Barcelona, I am also holding on to this beautiful experience and I hope to make the most of what’s left, because I will for sure miss it. No time to turn sentimental, because these exams still need me to be focused! So I’d better get back to studying, even if my mind is thinking about everything but that. Like where to travel next, or what happens after Erasmus...

And I'm off to…

…BARCELONA!!!   As you’re reading this, I am waiting to get on my flight to one of my favourite cities visited so far! I am literally so excited, that I cannot stop smiling!! Apart from returning to the beauty of Barcelona, I will also have a reunion with my friends which is even more exciting! This is why I have tried my best to do all this unconceivable amount of work as I don’t want to leave worried that I left things undone or to keep my mind on it. I will take these few days as they are: a vacation! With good friends, sun and new memories! Of course, intensive sessions of catching up are overdue!   Living in the light of the sun was also a good motivation, as the weather here reminded me of England and then it showed me that it can be worse than that and that you should never pretend that you know how the weather is going to be like! Like, seriously, don’t even try… I have waited so long for this: no more thights, no more boots, just skirts, dresses and sandals, ahhh. This is what also made me find this lovey Gap skirt that I have had for a while and not wore it, time to change that! So, that was my exciting news!! Also, the sad part is that while I’m there I won’t be posting on the blog, but I promise to keep you updated!! Just keep following me on Facebook and Instagram and I will make sure to share the sun with you!! Besitos, D.    ...
