A trip to Madrid
The 12th of October was a holiday in Spain and Yusuf and I decided to go on a little trip. We visited Madrid. Actually in the beginning we planned to visit Segovia and Salamanca as well but Madrid was really fascinating and we didn’t want to leave Madrid after seeing that city. We stayed 3 nights in Madrid at a hostel. I think we were so lucky about our hostel because people who were staying at the same time with us were so warm and good people.

9 d'Octubre y Corrida de Toros

In the beginning, we did not know that the ‘9th of October’ is very important historic date for the ‘Comunidad de Valencia’.
