About me

About me
I was born in Caracas, lived most of my life in London, also spent some time in Buenos Aires and Leeds, and finally moved to Barcelona in 2011. My passions are good food, reading, films and filmmaking, family and family history, and Barcelona.

Why Barcelona?
What I love about Barcelona is that I find new things in it to be amazed by all the time. It's a city that is constantly renewing itself but still manages to retain its sense of tradition, music festivals that bring the world together into one spot, to people in my neighborhood who take the time to greet you in the street and ask after your health. Barcelona retains its soul as the Roman port city where all peoples and civilizations meet and rub up against each other in constant flux. I couldn't live anywhere else.

Nice Spice

Curry on the Mediterranean

"Nice Spice" Barcelona is the curry restaurant I head to when I get my regular cravings for hot food. I often bump into the cook when I go food shopping!

Bitacora Barceloneta

Small place, great tapas

"Bitacora Barceloneta" in Barcelona was originally recommended to me by friends; now it's been one of my favorite places to eat fusion tapas for some time!

Base Nautica

Surf, sail and drink, all year round

"Base Nautica" is different from the legion of xiringuitos on Barcelona's sand. For one, it's more quiet and chilled out. It's also open in winter...

Rambla Poblenou

The street cafe life

"Rambla Poblenou" in Barcelona is the main wide pedestrian street in this neighborhood. It's a mix of local & touristic but it's a great place to hang out.

Public Libraries

Free for all

The "Public Libraries" in Barcelona are so good, I really think they make it my ideal city! They're well-stocked and are never more than 15 minutes away...

Parc del Forum

Open spaces for sport and sci fi

"Parc del Forum" in Barcelona hosts festivals, has a conference centre and is great for swimming. Honestly, it reminds me of science fiction!

Sala Beckett

Walk this way for theatre

"Sala Beckett" in Barcelona is a cutting-edge theatre in Poblenou. I like watching plays in Catalan here. There's also a bar-restaurant downstairs!

Parc de las Aigues

Green oasis near Gracia

"Parc de las Aigues" in Barcelona is an ex-private 19th-century-mansion ornamental garden; it's great that we can all enjoy this gem of a park now!
