I was taken on holiday to Barcelona for a few days following my return to the UK from Kenya.

I travelled to the beautiful city of Barcelona last September aiming to enjoy the annual Merce festival, a celebration of the city's rescue from a plague by 'Our Lady of Mercy' hence the name of the fiesta. It was truly amazing. We rented a two bedroomed apartment just off Las Ramblas in the heart …

So - how is it that at 11.10 am Tuesday 7th July I find myself sitting in the VIP lounge of the brand new Barcelona airport (on it's 17th day after opening) ?Well, in true Gracebook fashion, not all went to plan with my flight to Sevilla. The first leg was easy - Melbourne to Singapore - only abou…

This was an unplanned trip to Barcelona in summer of 2007. My friend was going and I agreed to join her last minute. No regrets!

I happen to be in Barcelona almost 5 times now and every time it feels like the first time, the lovely Mediterranean weather and the nice positive feeling of the city make me think that I just got there.Start in La Plaza de Cataluna, walk down to the Ramblas, stopping in the organic market, look at…

Barcelona is a truly wonderful city.....and very european, I truly enjoyed the visit, and I found it an amazing city to photograph as well...like Gaudi sights, Sagrada Familia is impressive and Parc Guell are great too! A city experiencing from mediterranean, welcoming, dynamic, innovative, pioneering, Gothic, olympic, spectacular with as many places to discover as stories to tell.....:)))

When I got to Barcelona, I was sort of turned off by what I saw... First of all, it was raining and the weather was cold (not exactly the best travel weather).  Second, my hostel was right off La Ramblas.  La Ramblas is a popular street in Barcelona that starts from approximately the cent…

My trip started with a flight (as easy to guess). I hate going by air - mush better by train or car. But that's quite crazy - driving through the whole Europe and part of Russia (not the least part). When I arrived (finally!) I passed a Custom (where a very pretty and smiled guy said me "Hola! Bien…

Barcelona, what an awesome city! I was there in March and somehow I scored the sweetest weather possible at that time of year. It was about 70 degrees F (about 21-22 C) for my entire trip except the last two days. It is a large and ancient city with a really cool layout, beautiful architecture and …

Might not seem the most postive summary, but really I was expecting more, to be blown away by it perhaps. Such a popular destination from the UK and so many people I know had come back and raved about it, yet I wouldn't rush to go back. Was in Valencia the year before and found it just as impr…
