Bye Winter

3/27/2019 1:37 PM fashionlifetravelBarcelona

Winters are rather mild in #Barcelona, and now we are facing that period when tourists are already sleveless and locals still stick to their jackets and boots. Although warmer temperatures are always welcome you know I always hated spring, mostly due having to cope with asthenia (here ) -which went away already- but this time there is a lot of pollen everywhere and believe me the wind is not making the spring entrance easy.

The good thing is that the sun stays up until about 7 and honestly it feels so good to get out of the office and see it is still sunny and streets are filled up with people walking around and having drinks in the cafés and terraces. I cannot wait to wear sandals once temperatures rise and of course wear all my favourite sunglasses. I am so far enjoying coffees and wine glasses on my sunny balcony, while listening to some chill music (see here ) and talking to my friends who i cannot wait to see!

YES, the only thing i am excited about this Spring is that one of my best friends -who has lived in Germany for the past 7 years- is coming back home for good! What are your plans for this upcoming April? I hope the weather behaves during Easter and we get to make lots of plans outdoors :D So far I have enjoyed power walks around this beautiful city (here ), which is getting more and more charming every day.

And as for this March, I have been dealing with some drama in my head, as usual! lol. But i found some inner peace when visiting my favourite place, and took some weekends to visit charming villages in Costa Brava, I promise to show you more about it soon on this blog :D

If you are living in a big city and are looking for some ideas to soak up the springy sun, here are some ideas for you:

Power walks around 6 p.m. -when the sun starts to set so you can enjoy a walk while witnessing a magical sky.
Explore food markets.
Play the photographer role: why not taking shots of those beautiful places you love in your city?
Read a book in the park or just walk along the beach to get those chill vibes!

power walks around Barcelona

Now that temperatures are warmer and days last longer, instead of hitting the gym (which i stopped doing in November tbh), we are more and more eager to step outside and go for a power walk around the city. Barcelona offers so many routes inside the city and outside, for those who prefer some mountain or gorgeous views.

I used to walk around one of the main avenues that crosses the city and then go a bit uphill but always without leaving the urban neighbourhoods. Now that my roomie has more time than before we have been trying new places and we have discovered lovely parks and areas from where you can see the whole city at your feet. Last week we started walking uphill and ended up in Parc del Turó del Putxet and in Bunkers del Carmel.
