Translation for 140 languages by ALS
Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things you didn't do than by the ones you did. So throw off the bowline.
Sail away from the safe harbor. Catch the trade winds in your sail.
Explore. Dream. Discover

Graffiti (Barcelona)


Maybe one could have an "even better" stay in Barcelona if the city planning wasn't reflective of Gaudi! Street numbers rise and fall without rhyme or reason, making finding any business not next to a Starbucks, El Corte Inglés, or McDonald's an adventure in itself. Case in point: Graffiti. The rounded building shown above is not the hostel and I could find no 257 along Arago Street (that's carrer or calle if you speaky the Spanish and not Catalan). BUT I did find 256! Close, but no Picasso.

So for all of you haters who bemoan the American global influence you'll be damn glad if you're lucky enough to count on a Mclandmark the next time you try to locate something in Barcelona.



Carrer de Arago 527-529
