Biblao

Bilbao was the first trip that I went on independently (without the ISA Porgram), and I loved it!

A couple of my friends and I travelled by train up to the northern regions, also known as the Basque Country. The train ride was absolutely gorgeous and I'm glad that I got to see so much of the Spanish landscape.

After almost fivelong long hours on the train, we finally arrived in Biblao!

Hiking in España

Image
When I was in Spain, some of my friends and I got homesick for Colorado. Hence, we decided to do the most Colorado thing there is to do... we went hiking! Parque del Collado was a beautiful hiking area just a short bus drive away from Madrid. It is located in the Bustarviejo municipality. On our hike, we ran into a man with a dog, and asked him if he knew any good spots in the area that we should check out. He was very nice, very friendly, and tolerated our broken Spanish. He told us that there was a well, next to a restaurant, just down the street from where we were. The well provides fresh water for all of the people in the village, so we decided to commemorate our trip to Bustarviejo by helping ourselves to cold, crisp water. We continued our trip with a packed picnic and set up a hammock. My personal favorite part of our hike was the dance session we had on the rocks. When in Spain. Adios amigos!

San Sebastian

While in Spain, I was told by several individuals (on several occasians) that San Sebastian was the most beautiful city in the country and that it was important that I go there. So, since we were so close to San Sebastian while visiting Bilbao, the girls and I decided that the bus ride was worth it. And it definitely was! It was a beautiful city, with beautiful people! The murky weather and drizzling rain did not stop us - we spend about 10 minutes on the beach, and the rest of the time in a cute little coffee shop not far from it. Being there for such a short period of time, made me appreciate the city more and I definitely want to go back for more than 4 hours! Also, we saw this very nice note on the side of a building. Vale, adios! Olga

Welcome!

Welcome to my blog! My name is Olga and I am a student at the University of Denver (DU). DU offers students the amazing opportunity to travel and study abroad their junior year.
