One of the less busier spots to see the penguins. Not one of the best days weatherwise but the experience was still worth the stop.

Alicante Blues

It's been so long since my last post and I apologize for that. Life has been a tad bit busy lately with work and everything in between. When life takes over I guess you just have to go with the flow and that's what I've been doing. Hoping to get back into blogging again this week but lets see how my week turns out. I love spontaneity.

Stroll through Alicante, Spain

Cascais, Portugal

A little paradise 20 minutes away from LIsbon. Less touristy and a perfect day trip! This is Cascais.

Time to catch the last train back to Lisbon.

Autumn in Barcelona

Perhaps they are practicing for X Factor!

What do you call the feeling of the cool air mixed with the warmth coming from the sun?! A beautiful autumn day in Barcelona!

Stack of 10€ Bills

This is what 1000€ in 10€ bills looks like. This was a small production for mobile tv that we were shooting at the beach.  

summer weekends

I love summer. So much life and so much love in the city like no other time of the year. The pants come off and the shorts come on (unless you're the infamous naked man. In that case everything comes off except tattoos. but good for him. He's got a penis. and he is proud! wooo hoo). For the rest of us, shoes off, flip flip flops on. This is summer in Barcelona. The city is just hustling with tourists and locals hoping for a glimpse of the sun and some eye candy. This Saturday my lovely Swedish friend and I started aimlessly walking down Passeig de Gracia (one of the biggest shopping streets) and found ourselves at Vincon, one of my favourite shops here. Although I can't afford anything, it's nice to look at. I call it the very expensive and designer IKEA. Everything you can imagine for your home and more. Cute things. Practical things. Comfortable things. Useless things. They've got it all. They also always have a unique window display that draws attention. We also managed to discover a small gallery inside. This is the store where dreams and ideas start to unfold of a life we may or may not have some where down the road. We continued walking to more shops and found our way at H&M. It's rebajas time. SALES SALES SALES. Also H&M pricing is much more to my liking at this point in my life. and the journey continued onwards to the beach. After a day of walking. What more could you want than a pitcher of Sangria while people watching and admiring the view. Priceless. mmm. Summer. I like.

Spiderman...lost?

I wonder if this was the evolution of the Statue of Liberty...
