my secret garden

Lately I have been searching for quiet places with nature and fresh air in the crazy Barcelona, where I could walk 

and relax a bit and enjoy beautiful views, and I was more than happy to actually find what I was looking for. These 

photos were taken in one of the parks in Montjuic, and I am sure I'll be visiting these parks pretty often in the 

upcoming weeks.

yoga weekend

This month I had less blog activity, since I made a change in my usual schedule. 

I started an amazing yoga teacher training course in Barcelona, that includes lots of different classes, 

retreats, and workshops from the best yoga teachers representing all yoga styles, so almost 

every weekend I’m there. On Instagram and Facebook I have been more active though.

This weekend for instance I have been to a yoga retreat at a peaceful place in the mountains, 

where I will return for sure soon.

The retreat wasn’t only about yoga, but anatomy as well, which I found really useful to apply to

 the daily yoga practice. This retreat has been short of pictures, but I managed to take a few even if we barely 

had some free time.

almost summer in January

I took to opportunity after a long time, now that the weather is warm again, to do 

some yoga outside, at the beach. It’s a great place to practice, one of my favourite places actually, 

where I really feel that I can connect with nature.  Then we played around in the sand, next to the 

water, taking photos. I even managed to get my clothes wet by getting to close to the water. In case

you were wondering, I got my leggings and top from Rohnish, don't you find them adorable?

Descubriendo Catalunya - Photo Diary - Cap de Creus

It’s been a long time since my last post, I know, but I hope to make it up to you.

Last weekend we’ve been to Cap de Creus, a natural park here in Cataluna, a wonderful place to see 

nature at its best. 

We spent the afternoon at a terrace near the well know lighthouse,  tried some of the goodies they 

had, and we were surprised that the place was really affordable. No need to mention that the view 

was just amazing, we’ve experienced a beautiful  sunset and the rise of the full moon from the sea.

Sometimes I enjoy just photographing the surface because I think it can be as revealing as going to the heart of the matter.

“One doesn’t stop seeing. One doesn’t stop framing. It doesn’t turn off and turn on. It’s on all the time.”

Gorges du Verdon and Sainte-Croix Lake

During our trip to the south of France we visited Gorges du Verdon or Grand canyon of Verdon as you might say and Sainte-Croix Lake. The sight is wonderful and it is a great place to spend some relaxing days.
