Everyone tells you Barcelona’s a fantastic city. Everyone talks about its liveliness, its culture, its Gaudi-ness, its art, its people, its shopping and its nightlife. But until you’ve actually been to Barca, it’s hard to understand or appreciate its splendour!
It is a city that is always buzzing and stays awake well into the night. It isn’t uncommon to see throngs of people heading out only at ten. It is the true definition of a city that doesn’t sleep.
What I love most about barca is its compactness. Almost everything is walkable and by walking you’ll see far more than you expect. The tiny lanes are mind boggling-ly similar and I have never once taken the same route back to my hostel. Which in itself is an adventure as I always see something new.
With its lovely people, delightful Cava, wonderful atmosphere and general vibrance, it’s a city I vow to return to!
