Sleeping in a Train Station in Lisbon

I am! Really! But it's not how it sounds! There is a hostel located in the upper floors of the Rossio train station in Lisbon and it had amazing ratings on Hostelworld, so that's where I'm staying. It's actually quite beautiful and quiet. Also I am completely in love with Lisbon. Wow! I honestly can say that I think it is even better than Barcelona in a lot of ways. Today I got here and I just went walking for a good 3 hours, getting lost, seeing the views and then found my way to a lovely little bakery where they sell Pasteis de Nata (I ordered 2, they are like little delicous creamy tarts!) And made my way back to the hostel where they are cooking dinner and it smells DELICOUS! I'm wondering if it's too late to ask to join! So, I have 3 days on my own more or less and then I'm going to be working the following 3. There is a small break in classes now because of a music festival so it worked out to be the perfect weekend and I'm really glad I did it - now if only I could speak portuguese :S

So Jackie obviously left a few days ago, that was the fastest 2 weeks ever! But we had a really nice time together and I'll throw some pictures up for you to see some of the stuff we were up to. And tomorrow is Pauline's big day! For everyone going to the wedding, I hope it's a great time and please take lots of photos for me to see every second :)

More to come as the Portugal experience continues!
