Dear readers – last couple of days have been busy, we packed our things (including our doggy) and left Spain to spend 91 days for our travel blog in Savanna, GA. It was pretty emotional leaving Spain – Valencia has been my favorite place to live in ever (I thought) …
The time for us in Oviedo is ticking down and the last couple of days have been very hectic to do the remaining must see and do things here in Asturias. Our twitter account for For 91 Days has been very helpful – we get great tips from our followers …
Are you looking for a Hotel in Gijón?
We went to La Laboral University in Gijón which is the biggest building in Spain (it’s awesome check it out) and after we did the regular touristic tour we ended up in the former kitchen of the university. You guessed it …
Looking for a hotel in Asturias?

Prince Philipe Museum
He also got hired to designthe World Trade Center Transportation Hub. Anyways, right now he is building this huge monster right in the middle of Oviedo.

The next Salamanca post – this was actually taken on the night before we went to see the Astronaut of Salamanca. The first “quick” footage is with the lights off – and right after I was done filming they turned on the lights. What a difference. And I thought the …
What the what? Astronaut carved into a facade of a church? How is the possible? Why – How – What? Turns out that it has been added by an artist during restorations in 1992 as a symbol of the 20th century.
We made it now to Oviedo which is our …
As I mentioned not too long ago – there will be couple of changes in my life. It’s on! Things are almost all packed up, self storage booked, mail forwarding activated, car rental hired and first destination picked.
It will be Oviedo! We are leaving Valencia in 9 days (eeeek!) to …
