Day 28 - Missing home

So, today way my 6 month anniversary with Paul...

I bet you're not surprised to read I was pretty homesick yesterday.

I spent a LOT of the day speaking with Paul online, which I really needed.

But other than that, I went to look for thongs (because my shitty cheap ones have broken already) and a charm for my charm bracelet.

So as it turns out, San Seb is in the Basque region, and they consider themselves Basque, not Spanish, so ALL the charms I could find are Basque related, not Spanish... tad disappointing because it means I won't have a charm from Spain :( but oh well... what can you do.

I went out for dinner, but alone, (because I spent most of my day in my room speaking to Paul, I didn't exactly make any friends in my hostel) to Pintxos, which I think I will get pretty sick of eating soon, it's good!! But it doesn't feel a whole lot like a meal?

Later that night I went to the beach and ate some cake I got, was apple with caramel on top :) and just chilled there for a while, and felt a bit homesick. And then I came home and read for a few hours before falling asleep.

One thing I did notice last night (which didn't help with being homesick) is water. Water in every country tastes so different, water from Switzerland tasted amazing, really cold and fresh, ESPECIALLY if it was out of the pumps in the street, straight from the glacier. but water in San Seb tastes EXACTLY like home... :(

Not the most productive of days, but that's San Seb, not the most productive of places.

Things that made me happy today; Talking a lot to Paul, Caramel

Things that made me sad today; Missing Paul and home, missing out on my Spanish charm.
