BARCELONA

Greeeetings from my hotel room!

Allow me to share with you all, the magical city of Barcelona. I’ve always heard people talk about how the city gives you an indescribable feeling, although I never understood quite what they meant until I saw it for myself. I don’t mean to sound like I know anything about architecture, because trust me I don’t, but Barcelona’s is briliant. You turn the corner on a random street, and there you’ll find an unusual, artistic building with eyeballs coming out of it. It’s like in school, when there’s that one artsy kid that dresses in rainbow pants and owns it- that’s Barcelona. Although the European charm is still there, the whole city has such a Middle-Eastern feel to it, it almost felt like walking around in the Dubai. I also saw inside an olympic stadium, which I don’t think I’ve ever seen before. We took an organized tour from our hotel in Tossa De Mar there, which I wouldn’t recommend to anyone visiting for the first time because they don’t give you any more than 2 hours to walk around, which is nowhere near enough time. It’s so unfortunate that we didn’t end up staying in Barcelona.. the city is simply amazing and I will 100% return (without my mom hehe). 

Te amo Barcelona!

Shorts and shirt from ZARA

Tourist Sonya haha

Eyeballs coming out of the building! Brilliant! 

You can never go wrong with a selfie!

We had lunch in a cute little Thai restaurant named Bun Bo.

Orange trees growing (for decoration.. but it was still so pretty!)

HIKING WITH THE NEON PINK NIKES

Hello!
Last night and also this morning, we found a wonderful “hiking” trail, which basically just means that we walk up the mountains for half an hour and eventually come to find a beautiful view of the entire town and ocean. Here’s a picture from just under an hour ago, when we went hiking. Note: I wore my neon pink Nike free runs. I’ll come to admit I don’t wear them quite as much as I ended to when I bought them haha.

A LITTLE BIT OF TODAY

Good evening!

Here are some pictures to give you an idea of how the day was spent, before I make a full post after dinner. Now I’m just editing pictures, longing for 8 o' clock so I can go downstairs for dinner at the hotel. There’s nothing good at dinner anyways; yesterday I decided to try some fish and it came with the skin on… but I didn’t realize this until I had already taken a bite. I was slightly repulsed haha.

Talk to you soon!

FIRST FEW HOURS IN SPAIN

Hola ;) 

The flight over here was surprisingly alright (with airline Rossiya), although I’m pretty loyal to Air Canada and stand by my belief that it’s the best airline ever =) I just love feeling safe on a flight no matter what. I read in a magazine that flying in an airplane is like flirting with death- very true. Especially when you’re flirting with death 4 times in 3 weeks, it can be quite the risk haha. Oh, not to mention my flight number was 911, uh, a little too soon don’t you think?! LOL

Anyways, Tossa De Mar, the little city we’re staying in is beautiful, we’ll go to Barcelona soon to check it out, but as for now we’re surrounded with a quiet, historical city and the beach. 

Here’s some pictures of this afternoon, I’m off to dinner at the hotel now (hope it’s good… bad food = bad sonya)!
