back in Madrid

After 6 days spent in Lisbon and around I returned to Madrid. It was interesting to re-familiarize myself with the city… From the familiar metro stations – nuevos ministerios, tribunal, sol, tirso de molina…. – to the language which I definitelly understand better than Portuguese. Feels a bit like home.

The hostel in which I’m staying right now definitelly is the best I saw – I really should post some pics to do it justice. Suffice to say it is located in a building in the national patrimony (almost like a paradores), with a common area resembling a mosque cloister or hi-tech key access. Oh, and it also has a bar. And a beer vending machine (from which I had the pleasure of drinking a dark voll damm). Lovely.

Now I will go visit Thiessen Bornemisza museum, and find something to eat – as I am starving.
