How to visit Barcelona
How I did it: I backpacked part of Europe with a couple of buddies in 2007. Barcelona was one of the best stops. It's so unique. The architecture was incredible! And the street performers blew my mind; their costumes were amazing. I couldn't believe the beach we stumbled on one day. It was absolutely awesome. Such deep, warm water. There's even a guy who goes around with a big platter of doughnuts on his head haha.
Lessons & tips: - make sure to see Gadhi's village!!!
- find the beach that's mixed into the city
