Two week trip, starting in Lisbon, renting a car and going south. then by train to Madrid, Pamplona, and Barcelona, and points in between....

I went to Spain last summer to study spanish at the Universidad Compultense de Madrid. I also had the chance to travel to other cities in Spain and go to running of the bulls in Pamplona!
