Hello dear Steemians!
I had the pleasure to visit this incredible city (already on my Must See list since a very long time) a few months ago! And it was awesome!. As I'm living in Spain, doing my Erasmus year, I said to myself that this is the perfect moment to do it. And so I did!
Lucky enough to find out that one of my favorite bands was holding a show in Barcelona on April 25, I decided to buy the ticket to make sure not only that I will see them live once again (the band is Parkway Drive) which is already something big, but also because finally, I had more than one motivation to jump on a plane and visit the city.
And guess what? I found cheap flights directly from Barcelona to Poland and had the opportunity to visit my girlfriend who's living there! Everything matched perfectly! NOT BAD AT ALL
In Barcelona I've been hosted by an Italian friend doing Erasmus there, so I didn't had to pay anything for accommodation ;)
The city was beautiful as I always imagined it and many of you might have heard many times! Walking on the Rambles and having a great meal at La Boqueria which is the best-known food market not only in the city but in the whole Spain, was something really magical. My dad fell in love with this city 15 years ago, now it was my turn!
The only problem there was the weather: coming from Granada with infernal temperatures, I was hoping at least to have sunny days but no! Rain, rain and rain again! And I had so many things to see and so little time! Staying 2-3 days it's surely not enough, and as I did for other places, I promised to come back sooner or later, hopefully with a big and hot sun in the sky.
The concert, held at Razzmatazz was pure gold! The crowd and the way the band hold the stage can be described as INSANITY. Aussies do it better and they proved it !!
I spent all the time around the city center, walking and walking but taking good pictures was almost impossible due to heavy rain and tourists (hehe). Lets say that I didn't wanted to plan nothing and I simply spent my time in Barcelona talking to locals and getting lost on beautiful streets!
Surely the trip was too short to really have the possibility to visit it the way I want and that I usually do with other cities. But I strongly believe that there was no point in doing a marathon trying and get exhausted quickly. I tasted a little from Barcelona's beauties but surely it deserves way more. I will be happy to return for a longer time in the next future!
What about you? Did you ever get the opportunity to visit the capital of Catalunya?
I love that band! I visited the place as well, and I love it so much. Hope you enjoyed.
