Time flies and it's my last week going on!
Finally summer is coming here in Barcelona and our return flight to Finland is at the end of the month. We have still two weeks here and I dont want to leave...
It is time to move out from the hostel now. I have been so proud of myself that I could stay that long living in the hostel! Actually it has positives and negatives things to live in Equity Point Sea. Every day waking up by the Sea is so nice and just need to come down when have to work. But for too long time like this internship it's little bit too long. When we are having groups or too much party people it is too noisy and impossible to sleep. Because the building is quite old and walls so weak.
The weather has been amazing here, over 20 degrees what means that our Barceloneta beach will be full of people all the time. Also in our Sea hostel we can feel the summer because of cockroaches...
We start to have them a lot and huge ones! My colleague toldme that they are huge, red and flying cockroaches! Earlier I had heard that every summer we have problems because of cockroaches and there is nothing to do. I mean that we have really nice and clean hostel but the building is quite old so those cockroaches and sometimes some rats comes from air conditioning ducts or sink holes. Last week I really saw one and I had to kill it. The funniest thing is that when our customers, swedish girls came to us asking our help, my colleague who is 2meters tall guy couldn't handle it. So I killed it and it really was HUGE! Never seen that huge cockroach before. Then my colleague was so proud of me of cource!
Then I had one friend from Berlin visiting me for one weekend aswell. So I had to be a guide for her. It was mostly beach holiday for her so we just went to the beach and chilled there. Then I also took her to park guell, sangrada familia, Placa de Espanya,la ramblas, etc. She really enjoyed Barcelona.
Anyways I also went to Sneakers festivals this month and I really liked it because there I can buy limited edition shoes and we don't have it in Finland, I think so...

Amazing April!
Hi again, our compiuters are finally working! So this post is about April which was full of happening.
Work was same as always; I did morning shifts starting days with the breakfast. Only difference was that the weather turned warmer that means we started to be busier than earlier. Weather was good, almost 20 degrees and people started to going crazy...especially on the beach. Barcelona is getting hotter that means more tourists are coming to enjoy Barcelona. Of course. Now we are all the time full booked and I get more work and practice in reseption. The most of our customers in hostel now are young people who are having a beach holiday and it's nice to work everyday with sunny people. We just need to remind our customers of thieves and our alcohol policy.
Then I had one day trips while I was having day off. One of the trips was to Roses, Girona. In spanish Rosas. Roses is located in Costa Brava, in Catalonia and it takes 2 and half hours to drive there from Barcelona. We went there by car with my local friends and the place was amazing, so beautiful! So sad that I dont have many pictures of the place but here is some...
Then San Jordi was also on April and it's s kind of spanish valentines day. On that day everyone was walking holding roses. in their hand. When it's San Jordi men give a women a rose and women give a man a book. This day I had also day off and I spend the day with my best friend here and I got a rose aswell!
In the end of April here is Feria. Feria de abril is small fair came from Andalucian capital of Seville.
I really liked it becausewe don't have this kind of fairs in Finland. I have been there many times with my friends and once with my cousins. Every time we went there was late in the evening and we spent time there until midnight. Playing game was cheap and possibility to win was big! So here you see,,,
