Last blog post from our holiday in Spain in 2024! A visit to Besalú. A beautiful medieval town in Catalonia, not too far from L’Ametlla, where we were staying. It was a truly wonderful experience. Exploring all the little streets and admiring the architecture. Trust me when I say, you won’t regret visiting this place.

A couple of photos from our day in Barcelona during our 2024 trip to Spain. I still love Barcelona and always enjoy being back in this city. Roaming around, enjoying the scenery and the nice Spanish sun. The only must-do-thing on our list for this time, was to the visit the Olympic stadium. The place, F.C. Barcelona temporarily calls home until the restoration at Camp Nou is finished. A must see for Simon!

It’s been a while again! Time for some updates. In April 2024 we had the pleasure to visit my cousin and his family in Spain. We stayed there for a week and explored the area around Barcelona. One thing that we wanted to see, was the Montserrat Monastery. What an incredible and beautiful place to visit. It was pretty calm when we were there. Making our trip even better. Stunning views everywhere. There are several ways to get up the mountain. But we choose to take the little train. Adding to the excitement when slowly crawling up that mountain. What a spectacular day!

One more day in Madrid. The last one before flying back home again. We were doubting to visit Toledo for a while. Easy to reach from Madrid and supposedly a very nice city as well. But as Adri missed a couple of days we decided to spend the last day in Madrid. And I think in the end this was the right decision.

Day 3 in Madrid! The second and last day of Adri’s training. Giving me a couple more hours to explore the city on my own. Not much on my list for today other than the Torres de Colón, the National Library of Spain, the Prado Museum and the Royal Botanical Garden. And of course… more tapas!

The idea of spending the day alone was a little weird. Normally we enjoy these city trips together. But here I was nevertheless. At least we had a nice breakfast together and I got to walk Adri to her training location. After saying goodbye and knowing we would see each other soon again, I set out to find the statue of the Bear and the Strawberry Tree.

Me and Adri had never been in Madrid before. But when Adri got the chance to go there for work, luckily that changed. We used that opportunity to pay Madrid a visit together and booked an extra ticket so I could join her on her trip. 🙂 The training would take 2 days but we stayed a couple of days extra. This gave us more time to really enjoy and explore the city.
