Andalucia part III - Sevilla

Hostel Oasis Sevilla & Catedral de Sevilla & the city of Sevilla
















And btw, this was my favorite one of those cities we visited during the trip. I will definitely go back there one day.

Granada -> Sevilla

So today, we left Granada at 11am (well, not exactly at 11am as Spanish people are not that precise about the timetables..) wth the destination: Sevilla. We drove a few hours in a row, then stopped at a service station for an hour and then drove another few hours. We finally made it to the hostel (Hostel Oasis) at 5pm or so. The hostel is BIG and i like it. it's comfortable. The internet works only in the common area but there is a big common area on every floor. We have a shared room for 10 persons, so there are quite a many of us.. Well, no can do. at least the hostel is nice, that's the main thing. The problem for me is that I have to sleep in the upper bed of a bunk bed..! I'm scared because I'm sure I'm gonna fall down from there... Wouldn't be the first time. We are staying here 'til Sunday, and then we are leaving towards Valencia, via Cordoba (we have only a few hours to spend there). We are supposed to be back in Valencia at 11pm (on Sunday) but I think we are not gonna be there until after the midnight. well, not a problem for me as the only classes I have on Monday are evening classes.

Today I've been suffering from quite terrible stomachaches and never-ending hunger. not too hard to guess the reason. But that's why I guess I'm not going out tonight, I'm just gonna take it easy and relax. Tomorrow I'm gonna spend the day seeing the city and shopping. My first impression of Sevilla has been very positive. and i already saw
too many nice (clothing) stores so..! bye bye money!
 

Just to concretize our trip, I drew the route to the map. the first part was Valencia - Jaén - Granada (on Wednesday), the second part Granada - Sevilla (on Friday), and the third part will be Sevilla - Cordoba - Valencia (on Sunday). Traveling is nice but getting home is also nice. At the moment it means Valencia, but eventually - Finland. So, I enjoy seeing these cities and experiencing all this stuff, but at the same time I miss my home in Valencia.

And of course I miss Finland. Sometimes more, sometimes less. I can't wait to see my sister in less than 3 weeks (in Barcelona). and I REALLY can't wait to see J in Malaga!!
