Hi, I am a multi-disciplinary designer and have lived in Barcelona for more than nine years. This city has captivated my heart and continues to surprise and delight me, practically on a daily basis. No wonder I am passionate about my surroundings! There is so much beauty, art, shopping, food and action to see, do, experience and above all, enjoy, to keep me going for quite a few years yet…
Apart from my activities as a designer, I also run the Cute Suite, which is a suite of rooms for rent in the delightful neighbourhood called El Raval, in the Old Town (Ciutat Vella) of Barcelona. On these pages, I will share with you the things to do or see in Barcelona that I find inspiring, enjoyable or simply note-worthy. I hope you enjoy your visit!

Hola chica. Wat een ontzettend leuk blog. mag ik hem toevoegen op mijn blog Spanjewensen?
¡Hola Anne! Hartelijk dank voor je compliment. By all means, voeg ‘m toe – jouw blog is ook erg leuk!
Hoi Lisette, ik kwam op je blog via Bloesem en daar kwam ik weer via mijn werk; ik ben een boekje aan het eindredigeren waar dit in voorkomt. Je maakt mooie foto’s! Leuk om ‘mijn’ buurtje zo in beeld te zien.
Groetjes, Esther
Hallo Esther, hartelijk dank voor je compliment over mijn foto’s! Fijn dat je mijn beelden over ‘jouw’ buurtje leuk vind… Groetjes, Lisette

It was a delight to discover your cute shop! I’ll be round soon to take photos…. Hasta pronto!
Hey!!! Lovely blog!!! I’m from Barcelona but living in England. After seeing your beautiful pictures I got a little homesick :_( But happy at the same time you got to show the true beauty of Barcelona so other can appreciate the little details that make this city so unique. The great thing about this city is that wherever you look there is a little thing that catches your attention and you showed it really well on your blog. Is nice to see people from other countries see and feel Barcelona the same way we do.

Thanks very much for your lovely comments! It’s hard not to delight in all the lovely details that are all over the place in BCN – they still catch my eye after 7 years and no doubt will continue to do so for more years to come… xx
i took the same photo of the gaudi tiles when i was in barcelona last year- your blog is making me miss it !! :(
They’re lovely, aren’t they? You may have to come back for another visit, he he!
Happy September to you and may you enjoy the new season!
Barcelona and Spain have had the influence of the East and West, Islam and Christianity, Europe and Africa, the junction and influence of many cultures and peoples, the simultaneous fusions and reinterpretations of traditions and practices, the cauldron and wellspring of ideas and innovations . . . .
May you continue to find inspirations in Spain, where it rains mainly on the plain!
Thanks very much! Lisette
You are very welcome! Cheers!
