Cabo de Gata, Spain: Best Weekend Ever.

The best part of the IES program is the included trips that we have. Last weekend, we all went to Cabo de Gata, on the coast of Southern Spain. I didn't really know what to expect from it and was surprised at how amazing it was, to be honest. We got to the coast and hiked for a good seven hours. we hiked through some small mountains and stopped at beaches along the way. It was beautiful, as per usual about places in Spain.

The ladies in my life, my great friends.


Beautiful coast.


One of the many beaches.


Made it to the top in 95 degree weather, boss status.


My friends and I climbing and being really photogenic at the same time.


The final beach, we made it!

We got to our hostel, exhausted and ready to eat a large dinner. Our whole program went to a restaurant on the beach and had a filling meal. We decided to have some drinks on the beach with friends and had an amazing times with a lot of laughs. It was a great day with amazing friends, whom I will miss a lot when I leave.

We're in love, no big deal.

The next day, we rented bikes and sped around the beautiful, coastal town of Cabo de Gata. We spent a lot of time on the beach, playing volleyball and drinking wine with friends. It's not that we did a crazy amount of activities but it was the company that happened to be with us that made it so amazing. It was definitely amazing to have one final trip all together before we go our different ways.

Love my friends.
