Cafe Begur

We’ve recently visited Begur twice. 

During our first trip we stumbled upon this great place in the old city center called CafeBegur.

It was time for dessert, by the time we got there, so we made sure check out some of their finest. 

We not only enjoyed our treats but the place itself, as it had an “oriental” design and feel to it. 

Next time we got to Begur we wanted to share the experience so we brought along two friends and 

stayed for lunch. We weren’t disappointed, lunch was great, and our friends shared the same opinion.
Here are some pics I took.

Last day of summer at Cap de Creus

We got to the lighthouse at Cap de Creus in the afternoon of the last day of the summer.

We enjoyed a vegetarian Neapolitan macaroni and a vegetarian curry dish. 

Right when we were about to finish, a concert started and went on into the sunset. 

It turns out that every time we get here, the day becomes somewhat special.

today

Today we went to the Gracia neighborhood, it's our favorite one in Barcelona, especially this week,
since it's all nicely decorated for the 'Festes de Gracia'.

We found a new vegan shop and bought some tiramisu and cookies, ate some vegetarian empanadas,
did some shopping from a tibetan store, and headed home on an electric scooter, shot some pics for
some clothes, reorganized the house, and then sat back and relaxed. 

Quite a busy day, but fun for sure!

This Week’s - Places To Be - Photo Diary - Sopa Barcelona

When we used to stay in the Poblenou neighbourhood of Barcelona, we discovered a great place to 

eat, drink and to chill called Sopa. The place, as it’s name suggests, serves among other eco and bio 

food a great variety of soups. One other particular aspects I enjoy about this place is its general 

family business feeling. The place is very spacious, you have the option to eat or take away, and the 

food they serve is really healthy and tastes great. Among other things they sell clothes and 

accessories for yoga, and btw I heard they use the place for yoga classes as well. We went there at a 

weekend, and the place had a chill, pleasant atmosphere overall, very different from the busy and noisy Barcelona.

This Week’s Places to Be - Photo Diary - Ugot

This morning we went to a place really close to us, as we have seen it quite a lot of times without 

entering. It’s a cute place with a lot of light, decorated in a vintage style. They have a great variety of 

foods with vegetarian options, but we decided to go straight to the cakes. We weren’t disappointed, 

our cheesecakes were absolutely delicious. 

The place is perfect for a Sunday brunch, or for any other day in fact. They play music from the 60s 

but you can’t really hear it from the people chitchatting. Ah.. and they went vintage all the way since 

their cups and saucers are exactly as if they were from my grandmother's Sunday set. 

Wish you a great week, and here are some pictures from  the place.

Cheers from Barcelona !

This Week’s Places To Be - Photo Diary - Salterio

Barcelona seems less crowded this time of the year, now that the holidays are almost over,
so we decided to go to this small a tiny oriental restaurant - teahouse, called Salterio.

It’s a really, really small place by the way, and very, very cozy. Think of an oriental style cafe in the
gothic center of the city and you’ll get the feeling I’m on about. The place is almost entirely lit by
candlelight, has all kinds of teapots everywhere you look, the wall is made of stones, the roof has an
old wooden structure etc. I could go on forever.

Last time we took a peak inside it was so full we could’t get in, this time was no different either, but
we managed to find a place near the entrance to enjoy a cup of tea, while loads of people from all
around the world were trying their luck to get in as well.

The menu is quite diverse, has many different flavours and kinds of tea and vegetarian options for
snacks as well. We opted for a Yogi tea with vegetal milk and some sweet sardo made of apples,
walnuts, sesame and thin bread. 

The staff was really nice, there was quiet and good music playing, and I’ve heard someone say they
even have a band play live music sometimes, but I wonder how they make them fit in though. 

Happy 2016 everyone.

I didn't have time to make 2015 inventory and 2016 resolutions as I started this year by traveling, 

but as soon as I arrived home the first 'resolution' came along: to spend more time outdoors in order 

to connect to the energy of nature, breathe fresh air, relax body and mind.

The second one is self respect. We all deserve it :)

This Week’s Places To Be - Photo Diary - Nomad Coffee

My boyfriend is a big coffee lover and as Christmas is just around the corner, he decided to buy some coffee for the loved ones.

We went to Nomad, a coffee roasting shop in Barcelona. We visited the “show room” and tried out 

one of its coffees and cookies. The place is really one to recommend to those who love coffee.
