The magic fountains of Montjuïc are exactly what they sound like… magical! I have to admit that the first time I visited the Magic Fountain I was pretty skeptical. I mean, let’s face it, an illuminated fountain that changes color in time to music sounds…well, pretty cheesy if you ask me… but that couldn’t be…Continue Reading “The Magic Fountains of Montjuïc – Barcelona, Spain”
The Salvador Dalí Museum is unlike any other museum that I’ve ever been to. Not just because of its contents, which are entirely interesting and unique. But mostly because Dalí did not allow the museum to be arranged in any logical or typical fashion. Dalí wanted the museum to be like him and his art…Continue Reading “The Salvador Dalí Museum in Figueres, Spain”
In honor of my 25th birthday I decided to share 25 of my favorite photos from my travels over the years. Instead of detracting from the experiences, photography actually enhances my travel and I love looking back and reflecting on my trips through my photos. They may not be the most technically perfect photos, but…Continue Reading “25 of my favorite travel photos”
My trip to Girona was by far one of my absolute favorite trips that I’ve ever taken. It’s been about a year since this trip, yet it was so memorable that I feel like I was just there a week ago. (you can also check out my video version of this trip) Last July (actually exactly…Continue Reading “My trip to Girona, Spain”

Barcelona is an incredible city filled with parks, culture, art and history. The Parc del Laberint d’Horta is one of the city’s oldest and least well known. Barcelona has many beautiful parks, but el Parc del Laberint d’Horta (Horta Labyrinth Park) is different than the others – it is a huge maze. The Laberint d’Horta in…Continue Reading “Parc del Laberint d’Horta – Barcelona”
The night of San Joan by far is one of my favorite nights in Barcelona. (slightly beaten by La Diada de Sant Jordi) … but it is yet another tradition that makes Spain so incredibly special. One thing I loved about living in Spain is that there seemed as if there was always something to celebrate… some sort…Continue Reading “La noche de San Juan – Barcelona”
Admittedly I did not like Madrid too much my first visit (during my time studying abroad)… there were other cities in Spain that really captured my heart (Seville and Barcelona especially). But luckily I returned to Madrid with my boyfriend, dying to give the city a second chance… and during my second visit to Madrid…Continue Reading “Madrid, Spain (Video Edition)”
One thing that I love to do when I travel is to take videos. I feel that videos really capture the essence of a place and the feelings of a trip very well, in a way that pictures can’t quite do. I’ve begun to do for most of the trips I go on, I have so…Continue Reading “Girona, Spain (video edition)”
