Even though it is my second trip to Spain, my first in Barcelona has not stopped amazing me from the moment I stepped of the plane!

| Where I live, Residence Pere Filipe Monlau |
I live in the old original part of the city which originally had a wall around it. Every street is filled with life and every building seems to have its unique details.
 |
| Las Ramblas- The most famous street in Barcelona |
 |
| Las Ramblas |
Street performers, vendors, restaurants, cafes, and other stores line this street and make it one of the most lively places to be during the day. I take it on my walk to class everyday :).

All in all, I was so impressed with all the people and places we went on the first day. AND I carried on a perfectly normal conversation with the cab driver on the way to the residence from the airport! Maybe my Spanish isn't as rusty as I thought. haha
P.S.- This is just the first day! More to come...
Un abrazo,
