Bilbao, Basque Country [País Vasco]
A major city in the autonomous community of the basque Country and the city of pintxos! When we arrived to Bilbao we didn’t have an exact plan on what to do, besides the Guggenheim Museum.

Weekend in Bordeaux [Fin de semana en Burdeos]
This past weekend I finally had the opportunity to go to Bordeaux for my first time. The actual reason we went was to see Muse play that Thursday night at a festival, Garo Rock, near Bordeaux in Marmande. Our plan was to rent a house though Airbnb, and sleep close to Marmande the night of the concert; then the following day head to Bordeaux to spend the rest of the weekend there.
