Ohh, you mean, BarTHelona? 🪭🪭

Feeling so alive!

Its not particularly difficult for me to be moved to tears, i am known to be a crier. But damn this city, it made me cry so much. I spent 2 months in Barcelona from February to April of this year. I was there for an illustration residency that i applied for on a whim, and the city was an in between stop for me, as i was going to there, and then back to Berlin to pack my stuff and move back to Greece. And what an amazing decision that was. Barcelona was a breakthrough for me, in that it showed me there’s other cities for me out there, and that life can be lived elsewhere, and that Berlin is not all that. A sigh of relief, I wasn’t making a mistake moving away. This is a blessed place, kissed by god and all the other artists, and its my favorite city ever. I think it has a way of bringing out the best in people, and i havent met such friendly locals before, despite what they say about the catalans, and how gentrification has made Barcelonians unfriendly (and righteously so, may i add). Still, the streets bring peace, and the pigeons have souls and people smile there, and they dont seem to really want to yell at each other all that much - rare. There’s many landmark places i didnt yet see, many hills i didnt yet climb and beaches i didnt swim in still, so this guide, this experience isnt a . But a , I thank this city for teaching me how to enjoy my own company, how to be a social creature, how to live a little bit less materialistically, how to follow a gut instinct, an adventure and how to speak spanish! 🪭🦐🌊🌆

Cofiiii ☕️

Sometimes i perused the town like a local, and sometimes like a gentrifier. This is the duality of life. Take this into consideration as you glide through my guide. Some spots are old, some are new, some are owned by catalans, some by foreigners. Hopefully none are owned by Israelis 🇵🇸🇵🇸🇵🇸
