Valencia is a completely different place when the sun is shining. the people, the music the ambience is as light as it is during summer. I can just imagine this place a few degrees warmer. Today i went to a mercado right by my casa. It ran for blocks and blocks with abuelitas bargaining for a pair of zapatillos and little perros dressed in sweaters. I got in trouble by a gypsy woman for taking a picture of her stand. apparently i have to ask permission to make art---or sahe was illegal. no se but the second one sounds more accurate. Its about 67 degrees right now and i just want to bath myself in the sun- i have a feelin ill be leaving this place with a killer tan.
yesterday my roommate and i went out with the intention of learning espanol. we went to a lounge place thinking there was a student exchange party only to find a group of people on a pub crawl....so what do we do? heck we join the pub crawl! lol the night started off quietly, as you know the valencians like to start the party at 4am- us americans are already in bed and probably hungover by then..... we went to this club called radio city where it was truly poppin...the crowd was interesting- abuelitos and hipsters....strange but very very fascinating. we danced our hearts out til 3am and moved onto the next location- MUSICBOX....these spaniards really like the 60s and the 90s ...i dont really get it yet- when i get an explanation as to why- i will let you know...
anyways thank you valencian nightlife once more ....tonight no se? possibly mexican night at la indiana- but first i will go to my first hip hop dance class in spain- hope culture shock has trained me well enough!!!!
