So I have definitely been lagging on the posts lately. June flew by so fast and there were so many great experiences on Ibiza. I'll try to hit the highlights but I don't think the blog could ever quite do it justice. Ibiza has so much too offer from the landscape, to the people, to the nightlife, to the food. I feel like I barely scratched the surface over the last month.

Well I mentioned before that I tried going vegan for a week. It went well and was not even really that hard thanks to Clay's amazing cooking! Anyway it's something I would recommend everyone try if you haven't done so already. A lot of the locals on the island are really health conscious so we even attended an interesting raw food workshop run by one of Liz & Clay's friends.

So after my parents left, a group of us went out to the opening party for Cocoon which is one of the biggest nights at the Amnesia club. Its more of a locals night with awesome minimal electronic music and super impressive lighting and decorations. They had giant jellyfish hanging from the ceiling of the club...impressive. Anyway Liz, Clay, I and one of their best friends Louise and her sister Ika had a blast that night until the club closed down at 7am. If you haven't been to the clubs in Ibiza you have to make the trip. Especially for Cocoon! All in all a great 28th birthday celebration.

So speaking of b-day's, my sister now hosts an annual b-day bash every June for her birthday that's called Lizbiza. She knows how to celebrate...each year the party lasts for a few days (or even weeks sometimes) where locals from the island and friends from abroad come to celebrate with live music and great food. To accommodate everyone they have a tipi and a jaima (a huge Moroccan-style tent) constructed. The Jaima is decorated with tons of pillows, beds, and carpets so after the party finishes people can spend the night inside if they want. Anyway, both the tipi and the jaima are super fun.

I could write pages more about the amazing time I had in Ibiza but I need to get some sleep to catch my flight to Bangkok in 6 hours! Ibiza and friends will be greatly missed but it won't be the last trip and maybe Ibiza will someday be a second home.... ;)
Off to bed...I'm going to try my best to make more posts next month but shorter. Hopefully I can still post pics from internet cafes. Bangkok here I come...
