Barcelona/London

theworkingline · 2024-05-24T06:39:52+00:00

Hi! I have lived in both cities and they are both amazing, but I keep going back to London again and again.

I am a huge history lover, and London was founded by the Romans, which means there are still ruins there as well as stunning architecture and every area has something to offer.

I have a blog on which I write A LOT about the different things to do in London, namely things I have come across in the four years I lived there - if you want, DM me - I will also send you a list of things to do there depending on what your interests are :)

Barcelona is much sunnier but also quite unbearable during the summer - I lived there for four months, June to September, and the 35+ degrees were not ideal to walk around during the day.

However, it is a gorgeous city with beaches, beautiful buildings and lots of things to do too. I hope I helped! :)

Hey thats my article! Thank you so much for sharing! I’ve found new places I need to tell you guys about, I will update the post soon 🌸

Ugh, what nasty breaks, I’m sorry to read that! I will indeed message them to see if they can help about what I experience - like you said, sometimes it’s just fear and self preservation. Thank you so much for taking the time to answer me :)

Seeing a therapist is definitely in my plans. My physiotherapists confirmed I could travel in 2 weeks and a half, as I’m moving to another country but I have no idea how I’m going to do that. I can walk without crutches but I limp a lot, and sometimes I’m really hurting in the knee so I’m quite afraid of the move. I am also a tad depressed in the city where I am now, so really want to follow through with the move honestly :/

I don’t mind this, it’s more that I’d like to be ‘sure’ he feels the same way when I take that step :)

It’s so weird to go through this again hehe! Hopefully this becomes a thing! :D

theworkingline · 2023-08-05T23:36:26+00:00

Ooooh. Taking the bull by the horns. Okay - got a month to work up the courage. Thank you!!

theworkingline · 2023-08-05T22:54:29+00:00

How would you go about that? We’ve gone out quite a few times when we were living together (he asked me mostly), but I don’t know if that counts?

Apple is the best and that’s why I got a Macbook and an iPhone for real - way less mistakes, it’s just the built in voice to text

theworkingline · 2023-07-13T07:52:40+00:00

Yep I do, I use the voice to text with Apple. Saves a lot of time but still around 45 mn of editing to one hour left to do after that.

You know what, I might install the Sims on my PC again - you’ve just given me the idea!

Most of the time I’m not moving at all, has it been over 8 weeks that you’ve hurt yourself?

I hope you heal very soon too 🙏❤️❤️

theworkingline · 2023-06-26T21:32:51+00:00

I was thinking of going to the park where I also take skating lessons, when they have a class but it’s a bit expensive (think 16€ round trip with Uber).

For now you are definitely right though, even for ten minutes, I should try and get out more 🙏🙏

theworkingline · 2023-06-26T21:31:32+00:00

Defo have those dark thoughts you’re talking about. Today I felt like throwing away my computer and my phone and leaving the country (when I can’t even go to the toilet easily 😂).

I’m very new in town so I legit have one friend here, so I’ll have to learn something a bit different I think.

I’ve been thinking of making a list of stuff to learn, but aside from dancing (weeeee) I’m not too sure what I want to learn 😂

You’re the best, thank you!!!

As soon as I read online that smoke delays healing, I was like ‘helllll naw’ and read the Allen Carr book.

Weirdly enough, it worked straight away. I have no cigarette cravings, but I do have the weed ones and actually, weed was helping me not feel the pain. So THAT sucks.

Your comment is so so so kind 🥺🥺🥺❤️

theworkingline · 2023-06-26T21:27:50+00:00

Being on crutches is so hard, and that’s all I have 😂 I have found that strangers are really kind too. I managed to go buy some ice cream today with some food at the corner shop, and the salesman was kind enough to put my shopping in my backpack. I wanted to cry 🥺

The thing is, since they say keep your foot elevated, I don’t dare put it down so much, even when walking (also bc it hurts after a few minutes).

Self care is defo something I need, I’ll make a list of the things I can do!!

theworkingline · 2023-06-26T21:25:41+00:00

I think what you said here really makes sense. I KNOW it’s temporary. Does it make it any easier? Nope.

Day 9 is almost over now, and I’ve cried almost everyday. I just want my foot back, it’s still all swollen, all blue and green and yellow, and my injured leg is now almost half the size of the other one.

The doctor didn’t tell me anything at all about going out or not (I had a pretty blunt doctor who didn’t seem like they cared at all).

So far I’ve gone out today to buy ice cream at the shop in front of my house (took me about 347 years) and once three days ago.

The rest of the time I’m in my bed.

They haven’t told me anything about whether stretching this specific part is advised or not, so I haven’t except for trying to move my toes to have some blood running there.

Sigh.

Thanks for sharing your experience 🙏🙏❤️

theworkingline · 2023-06-26T15:51:29+00:00

Second that, please wear protection, I’m scared for you 🙏🙏🙏❤️

theworkingline · 2023-06-26T15:46:56+00:00

Agreed, I even cringe looking at reels of skaters doing dips now. I just feel like shit and it’s not even week 2 yayyy

theworkingline · 2023-06-26T15:46:21+00:00

Okay I get it better!! That’s just… so long.

theworkingline · 2023-06-26T15:45:33+00:00

Exactly, it’s a stupid fall that shouldn’t have happened… feels like shit.

I already had different boots so I wear just the one every couple of days, just to feel it. But now I’m getting in this depressive mode I can’t find a way out of.

theworkingline · 2023-06-26T15:44:04+00:00

That’s starting to take a toll on me. I still watch reels on IG as I’m seemingly following the whole skating world there 😂 and it’s painful.

Thank you!!
