While in Barcelona, I also made friends with a Kiwi (New Zealander) named Cameron who was staying at my hostel and working as a deckhand on a ship in port nearby. I was impressed and intrigued with his job and the way he was travelling and likewise was he with my magic and pictures.

Hello! Do you speak English?
Yes. Only! I responded.
Its a phrase Ive taken a liking too. I must look very European, because I get to use it quite often. Other English speaking travelers often speak to me very slowly at first. A few times Ive made up my own language on the spot and watched them try to figure out where I was from. Spanish people will carry on complete conversations with me until I repeatedly tell them I dont speak Spanish. I must mumble, because they dont seem to notice Im responding in English. Maybe I just look Spanish or maybe its the fact that I do a very good Hola! and the only other phrase I know is Yo Hablo Espanol! (I speak Spanish!) I do like the Spanish language. Im trying to figure out which language Im going to take a serious stab at learning. Its a toss between that and French right now.

Phil, that writer/photographer I befriended in Bangkok, needed a website to promote the new book hes working on. I spent most of my days in Barcelona building it for him, so although I was there a week or whatever, I didnt see that many sights. However this didnt bother me much, which brings me to my next point.
Im getting sick of sightseeing.
I was in and out of the Luovre, which I think is the biggest museum in the world, in less than an hour, I took the metro to the most famous cathedral in Barcelona only to sit in the park across the street and read and just today I did a full lap around one of the biggest churches in the world, went into the ticket office, looked blankly at the lady sitting in the booth then patted my stomach and lied to her saying ‘I need to eat first before turning around and walking back outside.

Here are a some images I shot while walking around Barcelona this week. Open markets, sidewalk entertainers and a crazy park designed by the famous architect Antoni Gaudi.

This song popped into my head the other day. It’s a cute little diddy, so I figured I’d share. These are the girls I hung out with for two days in Kolkata, India. They’re musicians and best friends and they sang everytime we got in a taxi.
