My friend and I decided to visit three European countries this summer Barcelona, Nice, and Venice. Barcelona gave me artistic vibes, creativity and vivid memories. I was mesmerized by the city&#8217;s architecture, creative street art, and how everyone had their own sense of fashion.<\/p>\n<p>Where did I stay: Hostel Live Barcelona near Las Ramblas. I am a big fan of hostels<\/p>\n<p>What did I do:\u00a0I am a massive fan of hop on hop off tours. It is the most economical way to view the city, especially when you are visiting a destination for a short period. Rather than visiting each tourist location one by one, this option saves you time and money. Here were some of my favorite stops: Sagrada Fam\u00edlia, Parc G\u00fcell, The Museu Nacional d&#8217;Art de Catalunya, and more.<\/p>\n<p>How to get around: taxi, walk, or take advantage of the hop on hop off tour<\/p>\n<p>Travel Tips: It is imperative to get your tourism tickets in advance especially when traveling during peak seasons, tickets are likely to be sold out.<\/p>\n<p>What to wear: Express yourself through fashion with colors<\/p>\n<div id='gallery-1' class='gallery galleryid-475 gallery-columns-4 gallery-size-large'><figure class='gallery-item'>\n\t\t\t<div class='gallery-icon portrait'>\n\t\t\t\t<a href='https:\/\/iamkirsteng.com\/new\/marrakech-morocco\/img_0424-2\/'><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"768\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/iamkirsteng.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/03\/IMG_0424-2-768x1024.jpg\" class=\"attachment-large size-large\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/iamkirsteng.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/03\/IMG_0424-2-768x1024.jpg 768w, https:\/\/iamkirsteng.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/03\/IMG_0424-2-225x300.jpg 225w, https:\/\/iamkirsteng.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/03\/IMG_0424-2-600x800.jpg 600w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 768px) 100vw, 768px\" \/><\/a>\n\t\t\t<\/div><\/figure><figure class='gallery-item'>\n\t\t\t<div class='gallery-icon portrait'>\n\t\t\t\t<a href='https:\/\/iamkirsteng.com\/new\/creative-vibes-in-barcelona\/barcelona\/'><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"768\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/iamkirsteng.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/barcelona-768x1024.jpg\" class=\"attachment-large size-large\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/iamkirsteng.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/barcelona-768x1024.jpg 768w, https:\/\/iamkirsteng.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/barcelona-225x300.jpg 225w, https:\/\/iamkirsteng.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/barcelona-600x800.jpg 600w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 768px) 100vw, 768px\" \/><\/a>\n\t\t\t<\/div><\/figure><figure class='gallery-item'>\n\t\t\t<div class='gallery-icon portrait'>\n\t\t\t\t<a href='https:\/\/iamkirsteng.com\/new\/creative-vibes-in-barcelona\/img_0314\/'><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"768\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/iamkirsteng.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/IMG_0314-768x1024.jpg\" class=\"attachment-large size-large\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/iamkirsteng.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/IMG_0314-768x1024.jpg 768w, https:\/\/iamkirsteng.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/IMG_0314-225x300.jpg 225w, https:\/\/iamkirsteng.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/IMG_0314-600x800.jpg 600w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 768px) 100vw, 768px\" \/><\/a>\n\t\t\t<\/div><\/figure><figure class='gallery-item'>\n\t\t\t<div class='gallery-icon portrait'>\n\t\t\t\t<a href='https:\/\/iamkirsteng.com\/new\/creative-vibes-in-barcelona\/img_0515\/'><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"768\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/iamkirsteng.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/IMG_0515-768x1024.jpg\" class=\"attachment-large size-large\" alt=\"creative, barcelona, iamkirsteng\" srcset=\"https:\/\/iamkirsteng.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/IMG_0515-768x1024.jpg 768w, https:\/\/iamkirsteng.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/IMG_0515-225x300.jpg 225w, https:\/\/iamkirsteng.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/IMG_0515-600x800.jpg 600w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 768px) 100vw, 768px\" \/><\/a>\n\t\t\t<\/div><\/figure>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\n<p>Did something unusual happen: Yes, I ordered shrimp from a restaurant, and its digestive tract was not removed. (I thought this was so strange and a first, but to my surprise, the waiter explained that this was common and its okay to eat the shrimp this way if it&#8217;s cooked.) The waiter was accommodating and allowed me to order something else. Overall, I like to think of myself as well rounded and cultured, but I guess my American ways got the best of me this time. Next time, I&#8217;ll be sure not to assume and ask questions before ordering. LOL.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>My next adventure has led me to Barcelona, Spain and this the first stop of my summer extravaganza.
