  28. Welcome to Barcelona!
    I love my city, and I hope you're enjoying here. Today there are a nice weather, and Barcelona looks so beautiful.

    Mi advice are:
    - You have to eat "pa amb tomàquet i pernil"(bread and tomato with jam)
    - You have to go to some restaurant or a pub in Born district.
    - Finally you have to go shopping in the vintage shops that are in the streets in Gracia and El Gòtic districts.


    Enjoy!
