And I&#8217;m dragging Flo with me. He doesn&#8217;t know it yet, but resistance is futile.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Speaking of not missing out \u2014 we also finally strolled through the&nbsp;<em>shopping mile<\/em>&nbsp;at Plaza de Sant Francesc. Fun fact: this square is like the stylish cousin of all other plazas. It&#8217;s got history, it&#8217;s got flair, and apparently, it\u2019s got my wallet now. I bought myself a fresh pair of pants (because you can\u2019t fight art crimes in ripped jeans) and some pretty awesome shirts. Fashion icon unlocked.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>After the shopping extravaganza, Flo and I hit up an Italian restaurant. Cue pasta, deep conversations, and those&nbsp;<em>aesthetic palm trees<\/em>&nbsp;in the background that made us look like we were in a movie \u2014 possibly a buddy comedy, with a side of tiramisu.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Easter came around and we visited a&nbsp;<em>parade near the beach<\/em>&nbsp;\u2014 and I even got a flower. A real one. Like, someone just handed me joy in petal form. Made my day. We had breakfast there too, right by the sea. And yes, we visited&nbsp;<em>the<\/em>&nbsp;sea \u2014 the big blue beauty herself.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Picture this: waves crashing gently, kids laughing, bubbles floating through the air, and someone playing the piano like we were in a rom-com montage. I half expected credits to start rolling.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>All in all? Another awesome, slightly-too-sunny chapter in the Valencia saga. My sweat glands are screaming, but my soul is chill.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Stay tuned, nerds.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>More pictures and videos on my Tumblr Blog: <a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/afib-in-spain.tumblr.com\/\" target=\"_blank\">https:\/\/afib-in-spain.tumblr.com\/<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>So I did a thing.
