Color me wild

When minds can run creatively all around the place, still in Barcelona.

interior of the Sagrada Familia. Let light play with curves...

and colours...

How it all looks peacefull at first...

Yet another one, the colors looking even crazier here!

Just enough to make me smile.

It can be as simple as that, a dash of fresh air in a symphony of colors and sounds. Happiness, it's all that matters, and even though it can sometimes be quite hard to find, it's always here with us. Just nock on your door. Or mine, I'm always ready to look for it!

This weekend, I'm going back to some of my roots!

Peace.

How much can you eat?

You've come to the right place, there's an abundancy of tapas... Oh, how I love tapas!

Yeah... This gave me lots of ideas, you know I'll try to do this at home!

Paradise.

Nice door...

Have you ever seen such a small calamar?! I haven't. I couldn't believe it, and neither could the waiters believe my supefaction. They kept on coming and telling me I was funny. Funny, me? :)

Enough with the food, make room for Gaudì. Inside of the Sagrada Familia. Simply impressive.

There are so many more pics! I'll post them very soon.

Peace.

Almost no limits

in this city that is truly awake and crazy all the time. I've seen many big cities, but rarely have I seen so much activity at any time of the day. Yes my dears, it was Barcelona! Bustling with heat and people, its essence is incessantly very much alive. It gives countless opportunities for discovering improbable little streets and passages, crowded with shops and some really good restaurants, true gems! This whole idea of having a complicated city structure gives rise to a real labyrinthe for me. Otherwise, how would you explain that I found myself in the middle of the "hot" neighbourhood just a few hours after my arrival? It felt a bit weird to be surrounded by the "working girls" and their "bosses" who look at you in a veeeeery direct way... all you can think of at that time is ruuuuuuuun! I almost did.

Having breakfast on this square was a real pleasure.

Old town buildings, most of them in the hands of the state for different ministries. They would make interesting houses...

This reminds me a little of Italy, and makes me want to go there too.

dark little streets, full of surprises...

View from the top

What else to say, it was so good...

Peace.

The team is whole again!

The outcasts are back! YAY! What better way to celebrate that than to combine a wilderness park, a crazy hike, and fun on a real playground. All that and more, because it was in my favorite town in this country. In Zurich, my dear friends, I always feel good. Especially when I'm back again with you three darlings, my people, my family! Yeah, even though B. tried to empty me of my last ounces of energy, and may I say life, with one of the wildest and fastes hikes I've even done :).


Even bears have fun! The wilderness park/zoo in Zurich is really great!

Zurich and the lake, just loving it!

Zug lake... beautiful

My dearest. You can also see the Glaris mountains behind. I want to go there next, who wants to come?


Do you want me to be your lucky charm? wow, I can't believe I found it!

Also, I scratched my elbows terribly while playing on this playground that's meant for children. Yeah. As if that would stop me :).

Next, I'll be going south!

Peace.

We love Switzerland ;)

At least I do!

You don't need to go far to have a great day. I haven't visited Lausanne for a loooong time, and this time was really special, as if I had re-discovered this city in a new way... Of course, it all comes down to good mood, good food and good company!

Which one?

This one!

It makes you want to walk on the roofs. Quite litteraly.

View from my siesta position. Loved it! It was quite necessary, we ate a LOT. Really. The whole day. ( I don't mind:) )

Mhmmmmmm. Do I need to say more?

In a way, this is a small tribute to Switzerland. A calm, relaxing and lovely day, just like Switzeland, right?:) Even though "some" (ahem) people think that our accent is weird, and that Pully should be pronounced differently. Seriously? :)

What really matters at the end of the day when you feel that tiredness coming over you is to simply know that you've had a lovely day. D., thank you! You're getting that t-shirt (on the 13th, I will remember)!

Peace.
