Enjoying Eskoriatza (no more rain!)

I had to write you today because seeing the sun come out again, after the past weeks of rain, rain and more rain, has made me incredibly happy. Good timing too, since I had to do a photography project for school today and a lot of the locations were outside.

We’re spoiled Erasmus students. Coming to one of the rainiest parts of Spain and still enjoying sunny, 23-degrees days in the midst of November, we must be very lucky. But it recharges our batteries alright.

After the sudden downpours of the last weeks, three of us had gotten sick and spent a large part of the week in bed, shivering under our blankets. But today was magnificent. Niké, Morten and I even walked from Eskoriatza to Aretxabaleta today, enjoying the sun and especially the drought.

On Wednesday evening, one of my best friends from Belgium, Zahra, arrives in Santander. I will go pick her up in Bilbao on Thursday morning and since the weather will probably stay pretty good this week, we can take a trip to Donostia. Friday evening Niké, Zahra and I have plans to go to a festival in Bilbao with concerts of Atlas Sound and The Pains of Being Pure at Heart. I’m thinking about doing a radio feature on the event, as an assignment for our school in Belgium.

To conclude, some of the pictures I took for our photographic novel. As you can see, we had fun!
