Tim - Asturias is awesome. I´m from London, England & moved here to Asturias 2 years ago. I live in a pueblo here. Love it, best move I ever made!!!

Hey Abha,
I really like your spirit! I think it's really cool that you have up an office job to move to Spain, learn Spanish and write.
I am originally from Canada... 7 months ago I moved to the United Kingdom to save up some money and see the world. Because of the "economic climate" in the UK, I lost my job and have absolutely no savings, but I've decided to just got with the flow and hit the road anyway. I am going to France in a few weeks for a Ben Harper concert (he's my alltime fave musician) and then I will be hiking my way down to Madrid. Starting on May 1st I am volunteering for a week with Pueblo Ingles. They bring me back to Madrid on the evening of May 8th, and then I have no idea what the hell I'm doing next.
Perhaps you'd like to get together for tea or something? I'd love to hear about your life since you made the change.
Anyway, hope to hear from you.

Abha, great work at Vagablogging lately. Dunno if you surf, but even if you don't Asturias sounds awesome - just published a guide on Trips that you might like and if you could pass it to your friends in Spain, I'd be grateful.

Thanks!

About me
I am a 26-year old Indian who has lived in England, India, Dubai, Australia and Spain. About 7-months ago I quit my 4-year public relations job in Dubai to live in Spain, learn Spanish and write.
Am told that I am a typical Aquarian: unpredictable, impatient and adventurous with a short attention span - perhaps that is why I get bored easily and am perpetually lost. But then again, it is because of that I have done a variety of things from having my own radio show, working in film production, sales, advertising and public relations.
I speak English, Hindi and Spanish and never have much of a clue what life has in store for me.
Why I travel
I travel to be inspired and discover more about myself.
Travel style
Backpacking that is unplanned.
Ideal place to watch the sunset
Anywhere!
Ideal place to watch the sunrise

Before I die I'd like to
do way too many things!
I felt the most immersed in a foreign culture when
I lived in Spain and had my first almost fluent conversation on life in Spanish!
Let's collaborate
