Popped the question...


As most people would know by now, Keiran felt like asking me a question while we were doing the camino. And i felt like saying yes. So we are engaged which is hugely exciting! Back in Santander and its time to celebrate. Even though we are away from our family and friends we still had a little celbration, out for dinner and then a picnic the next day with champagne. We are looking at having an engagment party in the first week of December when we are back in Australia for Katies wedding. Hope we can catch up with people to celebrate then!

Thanks to everyone for the warm wishes of congratulations!

Camino...


This week we decided to head off to start the Camino. The camino de Santiago is a pilgramage that people have done for hundreds of year. We walked 30kms in one day but when we arrived we couldnt find any accommodation. Not even in the 5 star hotels. We had been told that in August it was impossible to find a place to stay, but we didnt beleive it. I could hardley move my legs, and we had no where to stay. Defeated and tired we got a bus back to Santander. If we can find some time we will do it some other time! bad luck!

Back to Santander


Keiran and I came back to Santander this week after spending a day in Gerona with a friend Stef. Tired after 6 weeks of travel, we plan weeks of sleeping and doing nothing. Its strange to be back here again, but awesome too, looking forward to getting back into the Spanish!

travels around Europe!


My sister and brother came over to Spain to visit and we travelled around for around a month. The trip started in Barcelona and then we headed over to Portugal where we met up with Keiran. After Portugal we headed back across to southern spain, then north to Santander, to running of the bulls, east to san sebastian then into france and andorra and back to Barcelona. It was amazing, too many things to mention!

Un pequeño mensaje para mis mejores amigas aquí en Santander! Muchas gracias para su amistad, he pasado aquí un tiempo tan fantástico que no puedo olvidarlo nunca. Santander no estaré lo mismo sin vosotros, estoy muy triste que os vais, y no se que voy a hacer aquí el semestre que viene. Pero estoy segura que vamos a ser muy buenas amigas durante todo nuestra vida, os vengáis a Australia y yo a Francia! Que aprovechemos nuestro tiempo juntos, porque estamos de vacaciones, tenemos tres días mas para pasar juntos! Os quiero mucho! Besos!
