Visiting Spain for 10 days
I am used to prepare trip properly before leaving, so that I feel secure that I could visit all places that I want to see. However, sometime when I was too boring with seeing the same thing, I just like exploring every small road of the city, to see something that tourists not normally see :D
Below was a plan of my trip in Spain since August 2011, I don't really recommend you to travel in Spain in Summer, it is better to do that in Spring ;)
