When in doubt in #Girona, make like James Brown and 'take it to the bridge'! With eleven to choose from you'll be amazed at the fantastic views and perspectives you can discover all over this beautiful city! Spain is becoming a firm favourite of ours whilst we're based in Europe, especially for weekend breaks. We want to head there again this summer so let us know what your hidden gem is in Spain!
This is probably our favourite photo from our 48 hours in Girona as part of the #SpainCities campaign. It's the sort that we would see someone else have and be like 'I wish I could have seen that shot'. Although there is no person in the image, there are many traces of life, identity and community - and perhaps the absence of anybody makes these more stark. The colourful buildings by the Onyar river are the iconic image of Girona, whilst those flags you see are draped out of windows and over balconies everywhere in the city. The candystripe one is for the local football team, whilst the flag with the star - Estelades - is flown by those who want an independent Catalonia.
The 90 steps leading to Girona's Cathedral are one of the most famous landmarks in the city....and that was before Jamie Lannister and his white horse rode up them in Game of Thrones! However, the reason why we like discovering a place with our cameras is that it gives us a chance to look for new angles or perspectives, rather than just taking 'postcard' shots. So, this is Andrew on those very steps in the early morning when only a handful of other people were around. Do you ever get up early to go and take photos? #SpainCities #Girona
We can't get enough of Spain in 2017. We just took a weekend break to the city of Girona...and my good god it is GORGEOUS!!! By day, this little archway down a side street is empty. But as the sun sets, it becomes home to the prettiest little open-air restaurant. #SpainCities #Girona
Anybody that knows us, knows we love a good bit of street art. So when we discovered that this very piece was in Vilnius, we just knew we had to go and check it out! We don't like to get too political on Along Dusty Roads but this did make us chuckle. _ _ _ #lithuania #vilniuscity #vilnius #streetart #grafitti #streetlife #discoverlithuania #lithuanian #lietuva #bestofbaltics #ig_lithuania #vscolithuania #exploretocreate #exploringtheglobe #headelsewhere #theprettycities #theculturetrip #livetotraveltraveltolive #girlslovetravel #girlmeetsworld #girlswhotravel #wearetravelgirls #theglobewanderer #girlvsglobe #wheretonext #travelforever #theworldismyplayground #sheisnotlost
Anybody who knows us, knows that we love a beautiful old town. Somewhere to get lost with our camera for hours or even days.. Vilnius was no different. Fantastically restored old buildings, quaint cobbled streets and narrow alleys. Even in the rain, this place was wonderful! ___ ___ ___ #lithuania #lithuanian #vscolithuania #bestofbaltics #lietuva #ig_lithuania #vilnius #vilniuscity #vilniusoldtown #oldtown #exploretocreate #exploringtheglobe #headelsewhere #travelgoals #travelforever #wheretonext #theworldismyplayground #theprettycities #theculturetrip #discoverlithuania #livetotraveltraveltolive #liveintrepid #dametraveler #darlingescapes #vscovilnius #passionpassport #tlpicks #lifewelltravelled #livethelittlethings #alongdustyroads
