At the end of October/beginning of November I spent a week in Valencia, Spain for work - flight paid for, nice hotel covered, food reimbursed - sounds glamorous, right?
It started out with lost luggage. No toiletries, clothes, essentials. Luckily my co-workers had enough to get me by until the next afternoon.
Note to self -- pack a change of clothes AND underwear in your carryon.
My typical breakfast every day...I do miss those little queso pastries. I
LOVED that they had hot milk available for hot chocolate.
Most of our days consisted of 12-14 hours of work at the conference and social events but we did have a little time to explore historic down town...

Sometimes flamenco dancers call you up to look a fool in front of 700 people...

The work days were long and the flights were exhausting but I can honestly say I
LOVE my job!!! (even the parts that don't involve traveling the world ;) The only thing that could make it dreamier is if the doc could travel with me. Nevertheless, it's pretty fantastic and such a blessing!
