Arriving in Madrid after 27 hours of transit we were sticky, tired and grumpy. It took a few trains and some sweat but we eventually arrived in Central Madrid, the effect of which was entirely overwhelming. Having never been to Europe before, I was brought to tears by the beauty of the city. A city where apartment blocks are stunning, and balconies have character as they're turned into clotheslines, pot plant gardens, and homes for big fluffy poodles. I couldn't believe that the girl who had never been on a plane or out of the state of Victoria until she was 19 was in Spain!
