primavera

Today, we celebrated the arrival of spring on our rooftop terrace with friends and neighbours.

It was so nice and the sun was really hot. From now on I would like to celebrate the change of the seasons more. To slow down and take a moment to look around. To observe the change of temperature and of light. To not just let time fly by without noticing.

I hope your weekend was sunny. Is spring showing itself where you are, too?

Igualada

Last week, on a grey day, I went to visit the Igualada cemetery (by Enric Miralles and Carme Pinòs) with my school.

It was a nice coincidence that I had a black and white film in my camera. There couldn't have been a better place to use it.

I loved the rough materials the architects chose. The curved walls are made of stones and iron rods, old railway sleepers give the floor a beautiful pattern, and the concrete tombs also act as retaining walls. Moss and grass are growing on them. The place is built on several levels and seems to melt into the surrounding landscape.

I know it's a cementery, not the funniest thing to start your weekend with. But I hope you like the photos.


This week for me has been mostly school and work. And a lot of internet distraction.

Have a sweet Friday evening friends.
I think I'll spend mine on the couch. Any movies you have enjoyed lately? I'd appreciate your recommendations.

hello september!

It's grey and windy today. My feet are a tiny bit cold for the first time in months.
The shops and cafés that are closed during August are opening their doors and cleaning windows. The streets are full of traffic, everything gets back to normal.
Septembers in Barcelona are still quite summery, but you can feel the transition from summer to fall and I love that; the light is different, warmer, in the morning you can wear long sleeves, and there are definitely less tourists around.

Tomorrow I'm going to Munich to visit my sister over the weekend. Do you have any suggestions, like comfy cafés, nice shops, beautiful secret places? I don't know the city at all, and my sister just moved there.
I would love you to leave me a comment!!

The photos are from a family brunch in France and from my apartment, shot with the wonderful Ilford Delta 3200.
