¡¡Barcelona, ahhhhhh, España!!

(sagrada familia, 10 years on, still not finished, but VERY different to the last time I was here.  Due to be finished in 2026)


I can't believe apparently, I didn't postanything  last year.  haha, I mustn't have been having an adventure last year. oh well...  i think i was, maybe just nothing I felt like celebrating.  

well, 2016 brings who knows what!?  It's half over and I'm skipping over winter for a summer in spain.

I have spent many days wandering the streets of barcelona and being reaquainted with the smells, sounds and sights of a town i love.  

Clem, a flatmate from London, 10 years ago came and joined me for a touristic weekend in barca and we caught up with Lucia, who we also lived with all those years ago.  I have also caught up with Andres and Irene (in Zaragoza) both whom I met in Australia.

Thank you Jose, for giving a place to stay in barcelona and Irene for a place in zaragoza.

Lots of time to think, read and be in my favourite country on earth.  I am very lucky to have the opportunity to be back here.

loving the sculptures in barca.  this is one paying homage to the cataluña tower men
ahhhh...  segway tour!  haha.  yay
me and clem infront of another sculpture
me and andres at beer o'clock
i'm in love with some of the artwork/designs for the sagrada familia
the church in plaza pilar in zaragoza.  i love the coloured tiles on the roof.
i love the fact the shopowners are smoking and drinking in the doorway at work...  haha.  different world!
still loving the old street lights.  i don't think i'll ever tire of them.

Lucia, my old flatmate from London, reminded me, I once said I was going to live in Barcelona.  I somehow forgot that dream...  I am now wondering how I can go about actually living that dream!  (or maybe live somewhere else in spain).  Let's see what life throws my way!

anyways, at least I have posted something for 2016!  more adventures in life to come!
