In illustrating the spirit of his vibrant surroundings, Ernest Hemmingway once described the “mad, whirling carnival” he saw around him in Spain. As an American studying at Madrid’s IE Business School I will be documenting my experience with this blog, dedicated to that theme.


For friends and family, you can find frequent updates on my life and adventures by checking back here regularly. For anyone else, I hope you find my posts on business school and life in Spain interesting.

Photos from Salamanca (two hours from Madrid)

Recently we took a short train north to visit Salamanca for a day. Salamanca is less famous of course than Madrid, Baracalona, Sevilla, etc, but it is none the less beautiful.

















Protesters in the streets of Salamanca.












The intricate stone carvings which can be seen on the walls of most churches here.
















The cathedral at night... what a sight!
