If Spain had a love language, it would be food. I discovered this in 2013, when I took my first steps outside the United States (Mexico doesn’t count, right?) and landed in Madrid, Spain. I dove straight into Spanish culture thanks to a girl named Kelly, a local to Madrid.
Exploring Madrid? The good news: the city makes it easy. Whether you ride, walk, bike, or glide on a scooter, this guide covers every way to move around Madrid with ease...
To this day, Barcelona is arguably my favorite city in the world. I can't put my finger on it, but there is just a certain charm the city emits. It could be the peculiar, yet strikingly fascinating buildings designed by famous architect Antonio Gaudi scattered throughout the city, or perhaps the various food markets selling fresh and authentic local delicacies, or maybe the feel of the sea breeze from some of the most beautiful beaches I have ever seen. I could go on, but there is just a magic about the city I can't put into words. Hopefully for those of you who have not yet gone, you get to experience Barcelona - and just see for yourself!

Let me start off by saying this, I am not a foodie. I like food - no I love food. In fact, I love it so much that I rarely judge. So when I've traveled to Barcelona, I made damn sure that I ate Tapas anytime I had the chance, but I'm not the type to research or look up the best restaurant or see who has 5 star reviews naa-naa-naa-naa-naa. If it's tasty or looks tasty, I eat it, therefore I think my opinion on the best Tapas in Barcelona wouldn't be very helpful. But some people have been blessed with the palette - a sophisticated taste for the finest foods in the land. Luckily, I have my friend Crystal and her husband Isidro who are certified foodies and recently traveled to Barcelona in 2023.
