I didn’t mentioned it but I am bikepacking. So it would take me at least week to get there. I will be in Madrid till Monday and then I will go, I need to get some stuff sorted out before I start properly.
Best kind of travel is getting “lost” and wandering around places no “normal” tourist would go.
Ok I didn’t slept since 6am yesterday, passed all checks (maybe) and bought duty free beer. It goes better than I thought, weird how the mind tricks you.
Madrid and then I will decide. I wanted to go to Valencia but it is still rough there after the flooding last year. Probably Gibraltar will be the rough next stop.
Few months ago I lost my job (don’t pity me it is ok), decided that it doesn’t make sense to look for another, roughly planned half year trip and tomorrow I am leaving.
So I am nervous of air travel, tomorrow I leave at 3 am, I can’t sleep well and can’t eat much because of my nerves.
Yesterday I had beer with my friends that I won’t see for a long time, I said goodbye to my relatives and now I try to distract myself from thinking about it that much.
Yeah my week is going exactly as I imagined it would go when I started planning.
I live in wine making region, so there are loads of these. Usually with house attached to it for wine making equipment.
When I want some wine I just go to the street with cellars, chose open one, ask and get some wine.
If it isn’t obvious I work in brewery lol.
What will be inside? I bet some wine.
You made me reconsider my route! Thanks
I looked online and I will follow Camino del Cid to Valencia. If everything goes to plan I will be there in about a week.
Unfortunately I didn’t see much of Madrid, was really jet lagged and tired so I slept through yesterday. Today I walked all day through the city and visited the flee markets and had more of a chill walk more than like exploring and getting to know the city.
Unfortunately I am more interested in little bit forgotten/undiscovered places, so Madrid is too crowded to my liking. But I will have to return here sometime to explore it better, right now I am in such mood that I just want to get out.
