🇪🇸 A Sun-Kissed Weekend in Barcelona: Art, Tapas & Beach Breezes

#summervacay Barcelona in the summer is electric — vibrant street life, Gaudí’s dreamy architecture, and that salty breeze from the Mediterranean. I started my weekend at La Sagrada Família, then wandered through Park Güell with a picnic in hand. Afternoons were spent getting lost in El Born and the Gothic Quarter, chasing shadows and snapping photos of secret courtyards. At sunset, I made my way to Barceloneta Beach, grabbed an icy sangria, and let the sea soundtrack my evening. Tapas hopping was a must — spicy patatas bravas, garlicky prawns, and creamy croquetas everywhere I turned. Two days wasn’t enough, but it was unforgettable.
