Wow! What can I say? Barcelona is definitely one of my
favourite cities I have visited.
The first day we went to a techno festival perched up on a
hill overlooking Barcelona. I was beyond exhausted after my 16 hour bus trip
from Paris, so I retired early for the night. The friends I met up with in
Barcelona are from Germany and they were understandably after some much needed
sunshine. So whilst they went to the beach, I went in a mad pursuit of every
Gaudi architecture in sight.
I don't claim to know
much about architects, but I remember studying Gaudi in school and since then becoming
obsessed with his work. So, I have to say, you need to prepare yourself for a
complete and utter onslaught of Gaudi photographs. From cocktails on the beach,
picnics in Park Guell, and to perusing Picasso's art work, I was blown away by
this city. The perfectly blended old and new architecture all around Barcelona
made for a breathtakingly, beautiful city. I can't wait to go back!
