Ronda, Spain

So yesterday I took a little daytrip south of Seville to Ronda, the most spectacular of Andalucia's pueblos blancos. Ronda is a quaint little village perched atop a lush backdrop of hills and farmland. It was nice to take a trip out of the city, I was getting a little stir-crazy. On another note, I just booked a ticket to Barcelona for the end of November and I think I may be going to Madrid the beginning of December. So excited!

Seville

I'm starting to get settled in to my new Spanish lifestyle. My work began a couple of weeks ago and things are going well. I just got a second job teaching at a private English academy two days a week. The kids are kind of a nightmare but hopefully they will calm down. The plan is to save up during the fall and winter and travel travel travel in the spring and summer. Whats on the agenda you ask? Istanbul, Paris (take two), Marrakesh, and possibly the UK in the spring. When the weather gets nice enough I hope to see Croatia, Lisbon, and the Canary Islands. Hopefully I'll be able to find a job in Barcelona for the summer, it would be too great to be able to summer there again. I'm currently working on my grad school applications for some Global Studies and Sustainable Development programs in Europe for next fall. I never thought I would miss school so much.

Here are some photos from Seville to tempt those who are still contemplating a visit...

On another note, I'm running low on lemon pepper (EMERGENCY), if anyone would be so kind to forward some my way, it would be much appreciated!
