First days in Spain

I arrived at Malaga airport yesterday
I was a little nervous since my soon to be roommate was in London and didn't manage to get to Spain to welcome me since she got stuck due to the weather.
I'm lucky enough to have a really nice boss here that picked me up at the airport and took me to a nice Swedish Hostel in Fuengirola which is close to where I'll be living and working,
He also showed me around the area and I got to see where I will be working the next 4 months :)
After arriving at the hostel I took a small walk around Fuengirola which reminded me of why I loved Spain when I was younger.
The narrow streets, beautiful houses and mild weather -> Lovely!


Today I checked out of the hostel, stayed for a few hours in the lobby catching up on Icelandic news and didn't really know what to do since my roommate still hasn't arrived. After a while I built up the courage to ask them to keep my bags and went for a walk.
I took a long walk around the neighborhood, went to the beach, checked out the sales and got myself something to eat. Now I've checked back in at the hostel and haven't heard from my roommate all day.

These first days have been a bit difficult for a anxious person like me but I guess it's just an experience. Hopefully tomorrow I'll my roommate will be here and I'll get to go see my new apartment :)
Until then I'm gonna relax in my room with a bag of chips and some San Miguel ;)
