La vida...

I am going to update you on my what has been going on in my life...

My family visits!
I had a great week with my family acting tour guide/translator. We visited the Cathedral, went to a tetería (tea shop in the Moroccan part of town) and generally saw the town. We had some great meals out with a lot of beer and tapas! They were very impressed with how cheap and good it was! It was also my mum's birthday whilst they were out here, so I booked a table in a restaurant near to my house, took in balloons and a cake with candles. We had a great night!

Birthday candles!!


My mum, my sister and I also went out for a few drinks after the meal to a really cool little pub and had a hilarious time. As the only three females in there we immediately attracted the attention of some of the lads sat drinking in there. They invited us to play table football with them - which was HILARIOUS! They were shouting in Spanish and us in English!! Great fun. They also bought us some shots when they realised it was my mum's birthday! An experience for her!!!

Us in the bar with the locals!


Overall, we enjoyed the week being together and exploring and they liked the town. When they came to leave I was left devastated again, it was soooo horrible leaving them at the airport as I went off in the bus back to Malaga centre to head back to Granada. The week after they left was one of my worst here as it had come to the point where I just wanted to go home. A lot of my friends are heading home this month for a week or so to visit family and it seems like this is the point where everyone is beginning to feel very homesick.

On the upside it is now only 1 month and 2 days until I go home for Christmas and I am soooo excited!!!! I have even bought a few cheeky Christmas decorations from the Chinese shop!!!

The uni here is still as rubbish as ever! It stresses me out! Balancing uni work and writing my dissertation is no fun!

Anyway, I am off to cook my dinner and get an early night as I have a splitting headache! Until the next time, un beso xxx
