Barceloneta
Happy Monday! I am celebrating today! Why, you ask? Well, today it is 9 years since I arrived in Barcelona! So I thought I’d share with you some images from my archives and reflect on these past years…
There have been many visits to the beach, to enjoy the sun and chill as well as gaze our at the horizon to calm stormy thoughts, and walk along the promenade in all kinds of weather.
Carrer Notariat
It has rained, sometimes incredibly heavily, and there have been tears every now and then when things got a little too overwhelming, or when joy made my eyes brim with the salty stuff.
Carrer Nou de la Rambla
Many gorgeous sunrises and sunsets have been enjoyed, and the spectacle of fluffy, multi-coloured clouds documented from my former home on Carrer Nou de la Rambla. (I still miss that stunning view!)

But all in all, of these past 9 years, the balance is positive, and there are many days when Barcelona offers me bliss! :)
Have a wonderful week, everyone!
wow 9 years, congratulations! Heres to another 9 … or more.. cheers xoxo
Thanks! It’s kind of hard to believe, Irene, because I have lived ‘here and there’ all my life… Madrid was the longest stretch so far: 9 1/2 years. It looks like Barcelona will turn out to be a winner! ;)

Happy 9 years! This is a really lovely post.
Thank you x2 Jessica! :)
