Hola! So sorry I haven't posted in a while! Day to day has become less adventure and more regular life. School's been good, spanish is improving, and I'm meeting some locals! Weather is finally cooling off which is nice, and I'm getting around the city a lot easier. Today was a big soccer game against Barca and Real Madrid, big rivals. Yessenia and I went to our friend, Jorge's friends house and they had a small bbq and we watched the game. There were just 6 of us, and the owner of the house lives all the way north out of the city almost and it's so beautiful. It's lush with green trees and plants and it's actually quiet! It's very peaceful out there and over looks the city because it's higher up. We had bbq'd mushrooms, zuchini, peppers, biiiig shrimp, chicken, pork, and beef strips! It was an awesome feast. The people we met were all very fun. They live in Barcelona, but come from everywhere. The owner of the house is Nigerian, the woman is Caribbean but grew up in Holland, and the other guy was Serbian I think. Jorge is Spanish and is from Galicia. He brought this amazing wine that comes from Galicia. All in all it was a fun night.
We also went to Park Guell today. It's a beautiful, lush green park filled with Gaudi's work. There was this romantic electric guitar player playing in one of the hidden green park areas, which was very nice. It also had a beautiful view of the city.
