Just Travelling Through

Hi! My name’s Stuart. Just a normal lad from Yorkshire who travels around the world. I'm here to share my experiences on the road from cities and countries around the world, including some less well-known places off the beaten path.
Six continents down (so far!) and a few years living in Spain. I don't tend to stay in one place for too long. As the name says... Just Travelling Through

From the top of Rio's famous Sugarloaf Mountain it From the top of Rio's famous Sugarloaf Mountain it's easy to see how packed the city is with buildings squeezed in among the surrounding hills.

The views are a breathtaking mix of nature and bustling city life, where something is happening all the time.

There are few major cities around the world that can offer this type of scenery, and it's one of the things that makes Rio so incredible.

Rio has some incredible sights with breathtaking n Rio has some incredible sights with breathtaking natural scenery all around.

Crammed in-between are tons of buildings, taking up every inch of available space.

Flying in to Rio I could see the favelas and how they occupied the surrounding hillsides. Home built everywhere they could just for a place to live.

Rio's scenery is spectacularly dramatic! Even down Rio's scenery is spectacularly dramatic! Even down at the beach you can see the striking image of Dois Irmãos (the two brothers) in the distance.

Rio has several beaches to enjoy, but Ipanema is the most popular with the locals (and has a better song than the nearby Copacabana).

My original plan about now was to head back to Sou My original plan about now was to head back to South America. So seems like as good a time as any to start sharing my photos from my last visit. Starting with one of my favourite cities - Rio de Janeiro!

There's so much cool stuff to do in Rio. The first place I went to was the famous Selaron Steps, just a short walk from my hostel.

There are so many cool mosaic tiles here and it was a good start to the colour and life of the city.

One of Santander's many impressive works of street One of Santander's many impressive works of street art.

This mural references Los Indianos, the people who left Spain in the 19th century to make their fortune in the New World.

Nearby on Paseo Menéndez Pelayo you'll see huge houses bought with money sent home from the Americas.

Many of them have palm trees in front as a symbol of where the family's wealth came from.

When does graffiti become street art? Is it all ab When does graffiti become street art? Is it all about style or is it something more subjective?

Some are obviously either street art or graffiti and it's easy to know which is which. But what about something in the middle?

I've always liked sunsets more. Mainly because I'm asleep at sunrise 😂

Either way there are some amazing sights to enjoy and a fantastic change of colour.

Did you know Santander has a palace? Magdalena Pa Did you know Santander has a palace?

Magdalena Palace has a very interesting history. Summer home of the Spanish royal family, prisoner of war camp and university.

Situated on a peninsula of the same name as the palace, you can read more about Magdalena's history on my website.

The advantage of this is the amazing views across the bay towards the mountains beyond.

To counter this Santander has many outdoor escalators. Making that journey up the hill so much easier.
