where i didn't get a haircut

i don't know why, but from the minute i entered this city i felt something special about it. maybe it was the river that showed itself to me as i drove through the main street, or all the beautiful, beautiful buildings that were decorating the congested traffic. or maybe all the bicycles i saw people riding around or, maybe, maybe, the ridiculous amount of beautiful women allowed to wander the streets just like that, without realizing the safety hazard this might entail.

the city is beautiful, and the old city is gorgeous. there are many students around, and they seem to be quite happy to bath in the sun, ride their bikes and occasionally attend a class. you can rent a bike with one of those bike renting machines that are spread around the city, and you are good to go.

I wandered around and used the magical wifi and iphone to find a gorgeous hostel in a small little side street. it is a small building with colorful glass windows and greenery all over the place, and a round and narrow staircase is decorating its circumference. Breakfast is served on the roof, where you can actually see parts of the city and enjoy the sun... gorgeous!

so it was definitely one of those town you wish you can stay longer, but after a couple of nights it was time to move on to the next city, on my way to barcelona
