While this apartment is no more than a mile-and-a-half (Google-mapped and walked) from almost all of the tourist attractions, I had a snapshot of daily life as it unfolded in a lovely and safe Barcelona neighborhood, for it is in a quiet and clean pedestrian street, lined with trees, birds, sitting benches and outdoor restaurants and cafes.
Stayed a month - would stay in this apartment again in a heartbeat. Thanks, Drew, Tamar, Lee and Lali!
