Our trip to Barcelona started when we found Sean’s apartment! Its décor and location said, “Come and enjoy Barcelona!” Sean picked us up at the airport, which made a long trip much easier. The apartment, which was stocked with basic food and drink for breakfast and snacks, allowed us to experience the Modernisma feeling as we enjoyed the wonderful art and architecture of our surroundings. Better than the apartment was our host and his family. They invited us to share a meal, helped us get tickets to a Barça match, and made sure that our needs and wants were satisfied. We left Barcelona feeling that we had made new friends.
