In July 2022 I had the pleasure of visiting Madrid, Spain with seven of my friends to explore the city and attend Mad Cool Festival.
The city was so beautiful with stunning street art around every corner. The streets looked like something straight out of a fairytale.
While we were in the city we saw some incredible buildings and places like the Plaza de Espana, Palacio de Buenavista and Plaza Mayor.
We ate some delicious food with some of the highlights including La Hummuseria and Sufu Cake and, of course, all of the delicious empanadas.
We walked though lots of greenery at Real Jardín Botánico and went on boats at El Retiro Park.
And we ended our trip seeing some incredible music acts at Mad Cool Festival. It was both my first oversees festival and my first multi-day festival and I had an amazing time.
I hope you enjoyed looking at some of my photos from my holiday to Madrid, Spain. More blog posts will come soon about my experience and my favourite things to do in the city.
Thanks for reading!

Awh I bet Madrid with such a big group of friends was so much fun! Love your photos. That food looks delish – I assume the bottom left dish is hummus? If so… *drools* xx

Yes the hummus was incredible! It was a lot of fun but as a solo traveller / couple traveller it was very different to what I’m used to!
