About

Hello fellow humans from Couchsurfing! I'm Célia from France, traveling with my friend Jules to Gijón. We've never been to this city before, but the Mirador de la Providencia looks amazing: spectacular sea views, plenty of space to spread out, and (hopefully!) one of the best spots to experience an event we probably won't see again for decades. Schedule: 18:00 > Meet at the mirador and settle in 19:31 > Partial eclipse begins 20:27 > Maximum eclipse (1 min 46 sec) 21:20 > Partial eclipse ends Bring a blanket if you have one, your picnic, and whatever you'd like to share. Vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free, homemade, supermarket snacks, alcohol, no alcohol… it's all welcome. The only essential thing is certified solar eclipse glasses for safety. Let's enjoy good food, great company, and one of nature's most spectacular shows together. And if the clouds decide to photobomb the eclipse… at least we'll still have the picnic.

Hi,

Hi Célia, I couldn’t write before, I have not internet and you can image, it’s hard

Now, I’m in the camping, the day is cloud, I have no car, uffff!!!!!! A kind of dissapointed, I hope you can see the eclipse , I’ll try to enjoy it the best possible . And more, with this new version of CS I do not know how to reply to yours messages !!!!. For me it’s easier by whats app but now I do not know if this message is public or not , and if I can give to you my phone number.
