While in Barcelona I got to experience a completely different culture and style of life. I wandered the streets and squares of the Gothic Quarter where I got to see some amazing artwork and the Sagrada Familia which was an amazing church which was concentrated by Pope Benedict XVI. It was an amazing cathedral and incredible structure. Also, while walking along the street I admired all of the amazing architecture and art work which was displayed all around the city. I got to try some of their cultural food such as the seafood paella and fresh tapas at local restaurants. I really enjoyed spending some time in the Gracia neighborhood which had many little bars and restaurants on the streets to sit outside during the evening. My two favorite places I would have to say were the Camp Nou Stadium where F.C. Barcelona Football team plays which seats almost 100,000 people. When I walked into the stadium it was almost breath taking and an amazing atmosphere to be in. Besides visiting the stadium, my favorite place in Barcelona was the Magic Fountain of Montjuïc which was located below the Palau Nacional on the Montjuïc hill. When I walked to the top of the hill, I was able to look across and see the whole city of Barcelona. That was truly an amazing and wonderful opportunity that I would not have been able to experience if it wasn’t for SCL.
