Adios Barcelona

The days have passed quietly here in Barcelona since New Years Eve…a relaxing medly of friends dropping round to finish off the NYE leftovers and try their luck at Playstation Buzz, churros with hot chocolate (or as someone described them – deep fried donuts dunked in thick chocolate soup…yum!) on coffee shop terraces, fishy paella for lunch in little tavernas, cozy nights in with a cup of tea and a movie and beer and fanta lemon (a surprisingly nice and very popular concoction here…) alongside gossip and laughter at friends’ flats.

I have met a few more people, and spent more time with those I met on my last trip here. But most importantly I have spent time just hanging out with my friends here, doing everyday, normal things...the perfect quality time that I have craved all year long.

Loving people all over the world means that saying goodbye is a much more regular part of life than I would like…but as my wise and precious friend said as I shed a few sad goodbye tears on his shoulder – leaving only means that I can soon come back…

Till next time.
