BARCELONA PHOTO DIARY

Back at the beginning of September, myself and 3 of my best friends decided to jet off to Spain for a week of sun, gossip and culture. Barcelona was a mere 17 euro and  hour and a half away by Renfe train from where we were staying in Salou, so we made a visit to the bustling city top of our to do list. One hot humid day after missing the previous train by minutes and waiting for an hour for the next we eventually made it into the city. I’d never been before but had a list the length of my arm of things I wanted to see and do. We started the day off with some café con leche and a little bun from a tiny little street café (by the way just way Barcelona offers some of the best coffee I’ve ever tasted – who knew?)

 I’ve decided to split my Barcelona story into a few different blog posts – one on where to eat and drink, one on what I wore, and this little photo diary full of summery snaps for you to feast your eyes on.

It truly is one of the most BEAUTIFUL and captivating cities I’ve ever been lucky enough to visit. We happened to travel in on Catalonian Independence Day, so the streets were alive with marches, colour and chants from locals. We spent our two days in Barcelona shopping, chatting with locals, eating, drinking and soaking up the atmosphere as we wandered down Las Ramblas, through the Gothic Quarter and down many a side street. 

Hope you enjoy the photos and I’ll be back with more tales soon,
