I <3 GAUDI

Gaudi Gaudi Gaudi! I am obsessed. Two days ago I went to Barcelona to visit all of Gaudi’s buildings. I visited La Pedrera (an apartment building that people used to live in but is now a museum), it is by far my favorite of Gaudi’s works. I also stopped by Casa Batlio, which I didn’t go into because I heard that the inside wasn’t worth seeing. After seeing these two buildings we went on a mission to get to park Guell. Once we got there we sat down to eat our sandwiches. It felt so good to finally get there, eat, and relax…until a pigeon had a good time on my shirt (which I was really a good sport about). I really love Gaudi’s work. It’s pure genius. When I have my own place I already know I’m going to use Gaudi as an inspiration for the décor. <3

Sitges

A few days ago I visited one of the most beautiful cities I have ever seen. Sitges is one of those little cities or towns that you might see in a movie. It has such charm and a romantic feel to it that when you are there you can only feel at peace with the world. I would love to one day own a house or apartment that I can get away to whenever the mood strikes. Another thing I love about this place is they make the BEST mojitos in the world! They are famous for them since Facundo Bacardi (the guy who made barcardi) was born from this little piece of paradise.

Feeling...

a little homesick..well kind of a lot homesick :(



late nights get the best of me sometimes ... meh.

Supermercado

Today, I had an interesting experience at the local supermercado (supermarket, duh). I know that different countries live different lives from the one I’m used to. I also know that Spaniards LOVE pork. So you can put those two things that I know together and you get this.

And this.

And this.

After coming across all of these delicious pig legs I suddenly got a craving for cranberry juice. – So I went to get myself some cranberry juice.. and I searched and I searched and I searched. And do you know that Spanish people don’t drink cranberry juice? So my little craving wasn’t satisfied until I came across a red bull that instantly became my new craving. I don’t know why but the fact that Spaniards don’t drink cranberry juice really made me laugh (on the inside ofcourse). Anyone want to ship some over?

I also came across some cuddling ferrets today and it reminded me of someone back home that I miss a little bit : ).

After the pig legs and the ferret lovers I went down to the beach. The sun was scorching hot but the water was muy perfecto! It was the perfect temperature. The kind you don’t hesitate to go in but is still refreshing at the same time.

& LAST but not LEAST… The kid in me found an old weakness <3
