Europe, Spain, Travel · 8 July 2011

Barcelona part 1: Sight Seeing

May I present to you the first load of pictures from Barcelona. Prepare, cause there are many more to come! I became a real shutterbug, snappin’ everything I saw. I just didn’t trust my memory enough, so I had to capture everything on film SD-card. Barcelona was my first ever flight experience. I had never been in a plane before, so imagine me beeing pretty scared. Now I can tell you that flying is so much fun! I especially loved it when we landed in Brussels around midnight, you could see al the citylights! So pretty.
I dedicate the first picture to Outside Voice’s feature “Get The Picture: Challenge“.
For which I was too late to sign up for…

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

1. Our plane is getting ready for boarding
2. Buying fruit at a local Boqueria
3. Placa D’espanya
4. View from Montjui
5. Park Güelle
6. La Sagrada Familia
7. La Ciudadela
8. The beach
9. Spanish flag

 

Stay tuned to see more pictures from my latest trip!

The Streek GR Kust had been on my must-hike list for a while and I'm so glad I finally went and did it!

Infamous for its high rise buildings and concrete boardwalks, this trail will show you that there is in fact a very different side to the Belgian coast too. The trail alternates between beach, dunes and woodland, making for a varied view along the way. Don't forget to circle back to the boardwalk sometimes for a much deserved waffle or ice cream! 😉
