  <bio>After a year of work and a break before my final year of uni, I've decided to go off for a little adventure around Europe. If you think Bear Grylls or Les Stroud are hardcore then keep reading and you may be in for a shock.

I've not overly planned this trip, so will just see where my fancy takes me. I have a rough idea of a route starting with Festival Internacional de Benic&#224;ssim (Spain) for a week.

My insertion will be tricky, boarding the correct plane to Barcelona, then navigating the trains to my first destination (Benic&#224;ssim). I hope to be lucky enough to meet with friendly's here, who will give me food and alcohol. However, surviving the certain five day mash-up and raves in the high heats is enough to test anyone's resolve.

After this festival I will be on my own, with nothing but a hostel guide, train map and the clothes I can carry. If you're still reading you may actually be interested in my trip. So keep coming back to check if I've written any new blogs. Expect to be kept on the edge of your seat, as this could very well be the read of your life.
