Salamanca


TEAM: The crew that traveled to Salamanca

Last weekend, I went with all my Mexican friends to Salamanca, an historic university town. I seem to bring rainy weather everywhere go, but the churches were spectacular despite the constant drizzle. Erasmus exchange students from all over Spain were there for a big reunion, and the dinner party was really fun. The highlight was the extremely entertaining Flamenco show. One of the best parts of being in Madrid is its central location within Spain, which makes it painless to take trips to see all the spectacular cities that dot the country.

DINNER PARTY: We didn't get the memo about formal dress, so good thing my really
 good Puerto Rican friend Gabriel was able to keep it classy on our behalf.
FLAMENCO: Folk music and dance from Southern Spain
PLAZA MAYOR: One of Spain's most charming architectural designs
CATHEDRAL: Awesome view from atop a tower
SPENT: Taking a nap in the bus station after a draining weekend
