Update from Spain, June 1st

Hola amigos! 

Hello from Spain. I know this isn't technically a travel blog but it is my life and my blog so I'd like to share a little bit about my trip so far.

*WARNING this blog post contains no fun tutorials, popsicle sticks, ribbons, buttons or other crafty things*

I've been in Lugo, Spain since Wednesday and today is the first day that I have not felt like throwing up in the morning. The time difference really had my body confused so it decided to throw a fit but, I think I have it under control now.  I have been staying with my friend Meghan and so far we have explored Lugo, took a day trip to Santiago de Compostela and hung out with her fun friends.

It's been a bit chilly here and unfortunately, I packed mostly for the sun so, I've been feeling like a slob around all the perfectly dressed Europeans.  If we had a walking on cobblestones in heels contest, Spain would win hands down! 

Tomorrow, we are off to explore the rest of the country and will be staying hostels and apartments. Hopefully, I will be able to update you again soon.

Ciao!
