Day 77 – evening run @Retiro

Palacio de Cristal 

Day 76 – We’re architects

‘Soon it will be Christmas Day‘ – reason enough to finally build the gingerbread house my mum brought me.

Watched by my curious Spanish room mate and her Ecuadorian boyfriend, Mona and I build this precious little gingerbread house.

Day 75 – spoooooooooorts

If you haven’t realized by now, I am crazy about sports! I am up for any kind of sport and get really cranky when I don’t get to move excessively for more than three days. But since I had to undergo a pretty serious knee-surgery about a year ago, my choices are more limited now.

Day 74 – Vorweihnachtszeit wie daheim

Im Internet habe ich von diesem deutschen Weihnachtsmarkt erfahren und war sofort aus dem Häuschen, denn hier in Madrid gibt es zwar genug Weihnachtsmärkte, aber wer österreichische (bzw. deutsche) Christkindlmärkte gewohnt ist, der kann bei dem Anblick spanischer Weihnachtsmärkte eigentlich nur heulen.

Day 73 – heading home

That feeling when you finally leave the library after a looong day of studying and are rewarded with a precious sunset…

Day 72 – a new gym attire

I spoiled myself and ordered these awesome pants. I had been trying to get  them in my size in the stores for weeks until I finally decided to order them. They arrived today and I’m absolutely in love with them!

Day 71 – Nature is beautiful

Day 70 – Yay! Spanish food!

Day 69 – another vegan, another dear friend

I finally made it to Punto Vegano again. And it was just as yummy as the first time. I still highly recommend it – especially if you go with a friend, talk for hours on end and savour their delicous desserts, like this ginger-pumpkin cake.

Day 68 – sunset walk

It was time for some Mona-Martina bonding at the Retiro
