This is Pamplona, the beautiful city in Navarra, Northern Spain, where I studied and spent four months of my life. We've got four vibrant seasons, world class tapas, a beautiful old town, a cathedral, a huge sprawling fortress, rivers and mills and delightful suburbs all around, two big universities, a reasonable amount of nightlife, nuns everywhere, one of the main fronts of the Basque independence movement, a park with live deer in it, festivals in every season, and more. And still, some people manage to call it boring - and after one semester! These people make me sick.
I took all of these pictures either in Pamplona proper (the majority) or in a suburb that you can reach on foot (faster by city bus).

Sorauren's my favorite, I think. So dramatic, and great perspective and composition. I also love the pictures you took of people. You're getting really skillful at this photography thing, Miranda. Keep taking pictures!
