Tidbits About Spain

Here are some more random information that you may care to know!

Every country has their own "thing". A type of store or something that you see absolutely everywhere which you quickly learn that you should never use as a landmarker to find your way around. In Barcelona it is the "Farmacia". They are EVERYWHERE, typically just little tiny hole in the wall pharmacies where you don't really get prescriptions, but other over the counter items, first aid etc.

It is less expensive to buy healthy food here than the crap, which is so opposite to what we are used to. 1/4 of a watermelon, or a good medium sized container of strawberries is about 1E (1.38 canadian).

Anyhow, it was another absolutely gorgeous day here - around 25 degrees! I've been taking it kind of easy but getting things done. I saw 2 more flats today. One was quite nice, so I may make an offer tomorrow. It's the perfect roomate scenario and the flat even has a "dressing room" which is very similar to a girls dream closet filled with wardrobes/mirrors/shelves etc.... only this one is shared with 3 people hahaha.

I shall keep you posted, but for now I am still at my little hostel, enjoying some good old american tv on this fine saturday evening!

Miss you all alot, it's almost been a week now, hard to believe.
