My one friend, Christian, had already done this …

After 1 flight, 2 trains, 1 bus, and one exhausting trek through the streets, we finally reached the city we crossed an entire ocean for… Pamplona. A trip that all began with the backhanded suggestion that we should go run with the bulls.

We got hooked up with a 3 bedroom flat that overlooked the …
