Casa Milà, commonly known as La Pedrera, is a timeless building which never goes out of fashion. From the outside, the curved facade and balconies catch your eyes, inviting you to go in & explore. The visual effect evokes waves in the sea and the iron balconies, which look like plants,…

We checked out of the hotel at 10 am and let our luggage stay in the hotel lobby behind the counter. The check-out went as smoothly as the check-in: maybe because it was the same girl doing it and she was both friendly, quick and service minded. We decided to walk to 2 km in to the city centre…

The next morning I got up early (at 8) took a shower and went to the Aquarium. To get there I had to cross the bridge in the harbour. The area overthere was very nice. It had a nice shoppingcentre and it took my quite a while to get across the bridge since it was so pretty there! I took a lot of pi…

After nearly nine months in Barcelona, I think that my lifestyle has become more Spanish than that of many Spaniards. I spend much of my day basically passing time between meals. Quite often, but not always, I'll eat five meals a day. These are: 1) desayuno (breakfast): This is what I eat aft…

If I am not wrong I woke up at 3am in the morning, had to be early at the airport to catch my flight back to Barcelona. It was dark and cold and I was alone at the bus stop. I am a bit paranoid lol, so the few ppl that could cross on the streets, well, everybody was suspicious haha. Although t…

I hadn't any plans left for the remainder of the day, after returning from Sant Sadurni. That resulted in me wondering around the Park de la Ciutadella, which wasn't of much interest to me. I sat there in the sun for a while, but it wasn't a charming place. Not like the Retiro in Madrid, for exampl…

Looking back on the first 3 months of my stay in Barcelona, Spain...      

We got up at a decent hour; we had some things we wanted to see before we left Barcelona and headed back north towards Lyon. We packed our stuff and went down in the lobby to book a hotel in Lyon on the computers and to check out. Everything went smooth and then it was back to the car garage down t…

Today we woke up at 07.45am and had a nice warm shower haha. After packing our suitcases we went for another try to visit Casa Mila. Because this was our last day we had to stand in line if we wanted to make the visit. Finally we got in and it was amazing; what an architecture. On the roof there we…
