Pisos and Pintxos

I just returned from grocery shopping because I had to get shtuff for my apartment!!
So I found a piso and I have finally moved in!!

My street is called Inigo Arista, it is named after the first King of Navarra.

Well, it is awesome! I'll keep this brief until pics go up but lets just say, big living room for sweet dance parties. There is a balcony overlooking the street and a small park. Nice kitchen with a DISHWASHER and washing machine (talk about luxurious)! Dining room, well there is a table in a small room connected to the kitchen, 2 bathrooms and my own pulley and line for drying laundry, wooo!! 10 minute walk to the university and all around, great starting point.



**Big bedroom with an extra mattress for international travelers; who wants to visit Pamplona??

I should probably mention I consulted multiple websites to get ideas on what basic groceries and other items are essential in a new apartment and the most helpful was MensHealth.com and Askmen.com. So I needed some help getting started big whoop wanna fight about it?



Remember in home alone when Kevin goes shopping? Same thing, minus the cold weather.
"Is this toothbrush approved by the American Dental Association?"

Tonight I am going out with friends from the International Relations committee to introduce the new international students to "pinchos or pintxos". Pincho which translate to "spikes", is called this because these small portioned meals of heavenliness are usually served with a toothpick, (cost is about 2 euros each). Don't forget to was it down with a beer. Yumm



Also when you go out to eat here, plan on clearing out your agenda. The waiters are paid by the hour, not by tips (that's right, no tipping). You are entitled to eat slowly, take your time, and actually enjoy your meal. The only time you see your waiter is if you flag them down.
