So This Really Is It, I Swear

One final post, all thanks to ThirdYearAbroad.com.

This is my A-Z of my year in Granada.

 

  • A is for Anticipation, and just how afraid I was this time last year.
  • B is for Bohemia! Cafe Bohemia that is…
  • C is for that crazy lady who followed us up a mountain, no biggie. Read more here.
  • D is for Dasoul and getting to see him perform live in an outdoor club! El no te da! 
  • E is for El Camborio, obviously.
  • F is for Federico, the landlord from hell. You’d think a landlord might actually answer his emails!
  • G is for Grandma, she’s really quite fat. (Did anyone else have this book??) But seriously, G is for Granada, my home away from home.
  • H is for Hammam Arabic Baths. 25€ for students and the most relaxing experience. If you’re not awkward like me, that is. Read more here.
  • I is for IBIZAAAAA. Or as we call it lovingly: BEEFA. The best week of my year, my total highlight. Read more here.
  • J is for joining in with group activities… which i’m still not very good at.
  • K is for keeping in touch. Thank goodness for FaceTime!
  • L is for long journeys, like travelling 12 hours by coach to Barcelona. Read more here.
  • M is for Marrakech! If you’re in Spain for a year and you don’t go to Morocco, are you really doing it properly? Read more here.
  • N is for Norma y Uso, aka, the worst class I’ve ever taken in my life. I’m certainly not surprised I failed and I don’t think anyone else is either.
  • O is for once in a lifetime experience.
  • P is for Plaza Einstein, perfect for tapas, not so perfect for meeting people, since it’s not actually a square.
  • Q is for queuing… or just giving up on it after a year!
  • R is for reading in the park whilst trying to top up the tan.
  • S is for Smooy. One a day keeps the doctor away.
  • T is for Tapas. Granada is the only place in the country that still gives out food with every drink you buy. What are you waiting for?
  • U is for University of Granada and all its disorganisation!
  • V is for vale, or the only word necessary to get someone off your back.
  • W is for walking everywhere and seeing everything.
  • X is for XXXX (or my code in my notes for when I had no idea what the lecturer had said!!)
  • Y is for a year in your life, or your life in a year?
  • Z is for Zero regrets.

 

Thanks for reading my blog… this really is goodbye!

  1. I’m sorry you’re going to have to keep writing blogs for me, they have become a highlight, I think they might be even better when you will find all different subjects, the last two were fab. Love xxxx
