I started this blog in the Summer of 2010 when I studied in Barcelona. It was named "Britt-Britt's Barcelonean Escapades" but now I have to rename it because I've broadened my horizons, I'm seeking new adventures, I'm traveling further, and more daringly going where I have never been before! And these are my stories....
Mountains

Mi Senora y casa
We had a wonderful 9.5 hour bus ride from Toledo to Barcelona today. That was very tiring yet really really beautiful. Spain is full of the most beautiful mountains that I have ever seen. I finally got to meet my "senora" and settle into my new habitacion (room). The woman who is hosting us (me and one other girl from Georgia named Charlotte) is extremely talkative and absolutely amazing. Senora Maria and her boyfriend picked us up from the bus stop and we made our way through the most beautiful city of Barcelona. Senora Maria has one son who just recently had a baby boy about 1 month ago. I'm not sure of either her son's or her grandson's names. Her son is married and this is their first child. From what I gathered from our conversations, she is from Cuba and used to be in the theater as an actress (I think). AND she has a one month old kitten who is all white with a little black smudge on its head (not gathered from the conversations, I saw him running around). His name is white but in Catalan which I forgot. For dinner Senora made us some salad and tortillas. Tortillas in Spain is not at all like tortillas in USA, it's egg and potatoes. They're a little bit bland but after a few bites it's really good. Today was a great day and tomorrow I will conquer Barthelona (that's how it is pronounced). Until then, buenas noches.
