On our second day of being in Madrid, we took a walk to the Temple of Debod. Originally this ancient temple was built in Egypt before being relocated to Spain. It's one of the main tourist attractions in the city, and as it's completely free to see and look around I'd definitely recommend it a visit if you're in the area.

It's very small though so I'd only dedicate half an hour if you plan to visit.

Before this year I thought that weekends away were expensive and impossible to do on a budget. But over the months I've been planning a few mini trips and have realised how easy they are to do without breaking the bank. A couple of months ago my sister & I spent the weekend in Berlin so I thought it might be useful to give a breakdown of costs for any of you that are planning a trip!
