• On the way to Madrid

    September 21 in France ☁️ 18 °C

    I was heading to Madrid, and Phily was going to Amsterdam that day. Marseille train station will keep a memory of our romantic goodbye 💛.

    My journey started pretty dramatically. 😂 Our high-speed train from Marseille to Madrid got stuck inside a tunnel near Girona because of an electrical fault. We had an ambulance, police, firefighters and railway workers all together, and eventually they sent a completely separate train to evacuate 300 passengers.

    I arrived to Madrid much later than planned, I had booked five-star hotel for that night with my Marriott employee discount and was excited for the stay. Room was so beautiful 🥰 Shower helped to wash off the stress of the day, and I went out for some paella and empanadas at a local restaurant with a glass of house wine. A small walk around Madrid afterwards was pretty much all the energy I had left.

    Madrid will have to wait for me to properly explore it another time. 😅

    I fell asleep in that ridiculously huge hotel bed hugging my pillow, pretending it was Phily. 😂❤️

    And then it was time to continue the adventure.
