This week... September 7th, 2014

This week I....

...was busy with editing a paper with multiple authors. You know, the kind where everyone wants to make changes but no one knows who has the most recent version?

...started planning which La Merced events we want to go to in Barcelona... the program is ridiculously packed! and in Catalan!

...learned that you can get cheaper flights, trains, ferries, etc. if you book from within the country you will be traveling in. MapHappy.org's article Use a “Fake” Location to Get Cheaper Plane Tickets explains that sometimes airlines offer cheaper flights for their target audience (those in the country they primarily serve), and paired with a favorable currency conversions you can save a good chunk of change. The author found that simply changing the country on the airline website got her a better deal, but I plan on also check out if changing my VPN (I use Hola Unblocker) makes a difference.

...passed what originally looked like a small black bear on my way to work. 


...have been bookmarking and pinning loads of pumpkin and apple cakes (like this single Caramel Apple Cupcake one by Jessica in the Kitchen), brownies and other treats. I can't wait until pumpkins arrive in the stores here!
