Woah. Madrid is gorgeous, as was to be expected. This actually doesn't feel like a big adjustment at all. A lot of what I've seen of the people, lifestyle, architecture, etc, is much like Buenos Aires, so I feel comfortable here already. There isn't much shock or anything as of now, but I find that "culture shock" comes later.
I still don't believe I'm LIVING here in europe and that this is going to last a year.
All I can say is, for now, the mix of red wine and tapas is working its magic. I should be willing to give a good account of how hectic the commute from Barjas to Madrid was (just take a taxi, for those who are thinking of carrying more than three bags), but I'm not so willing right now. Tired. Didn't take a single picture today. I'll hopefully do some tomorrow, as I buy a phone and explore Madrid's Noche en Blanco.
'Nuff for now!
