Barcelona - Gourmet articles
When you come to Spain, you have to learn about Tapas, the Spanish side dish culture. Tapa means lid in Spanish. The original origin is that in the bar, the general customers are standing by the bar to drink, and there is no place to put down the wine and side dishes. Therefore, in order to save some convenience, the bar staff will put down the wine and side dishes. The saucer covers the wine glass. besides…

Barcelona (2)
There is no jet lag to get up early to visit Parc Güell Güell Park. The gate and some of the buildings inside are made by Gaudí. It feels like he built it everywhere in Barcelona. Part of this park requires buying tickets to enter, but after checking online in advance, most people said that it is not necessary. The part of the free visit is enough for shopping, and there is no reservation…

Barcelona (1)
This is my third trip to Europe, but this is my first time alone. I finally arrived in Spain, where I have been wanting to go since I took Spanish classes in college. Spain has been on the top of my list of travel destinations, but I didn't expect it to happen so soon. If it weren't for the fact that I've been tracking planes in any destination around the world since December...

Portland, Crater Lake, California Redwood State Park (down south)
There's not much else to do in Vancouver other than eat, so we decided to go back to the US early and go to a few more places on the way. When I went back to the United States to cross the border, I stood in line for two and a half hours. The road from Northern California to Canada did not pay any tolls or tolls, but the irony is that you have to pay the tolls to go to the Sanban urban area.

Vancouver
Today, when I was driving from Seattle to Vancouver, my friend and I were driving across Canada from the United States, and we were unexpectedly asked a lot of questions by a serious and expressionless border inspector: How long have you been in Canada? Why are you here? Where do you live? (Live at the owner of the sofa?! Have you met before?) Where do you two live in the US? Drive all the way from California? In the United States…

Portland, Seattle (up north)
During the Christmas vacation, I planned to fly to Portland alone and then play in Vancouver. I mentioned it to my friend, and he decided to join me without any arrangements for the Christmas vacation. Since there were two of them, they drove north instead. Yesterday, I drove almost 8 hours to Bend, Oregon at midnight. I got up in the morning and went hiking on the small hill of Pilot Butte in the city. It was really cold in the early morning...

Tayrona National Park
In fact, before I came to Colombia, I didn’t know about other cities except Bogota, Medellin and Cali. If it wasn’t for the Argentinian friend I met in Beijing a year and a half ago who strongly recommended me to go hiking in Tayrona National Park, I wouldn’t know about San Francisco at all. Marta is a city in the north of Colombia.

santa marta
When I came to Santa Marta, I met (or should I say "I didn't meet"?) a sofa owner who was the most willing to help and trust the sofa guest since I used the sofa guest software last year. I originally planned to live in a youth hostel, but the sofa owner took the initiative to contact me on the day I came to this city, saying that the apartment where he lived with his wife and daughter could accommodate me. …

Cartagena
In the afternoon, I arrived at the third stop of the Colombian tour: Cartagena, a seaside city. When I got off the plane, a burst of heat came to my face. It was more than 30 degrees and the humid coastal climate made me sweat immediately. I just watched a pirated movie in Bogota-Will Smith's new movie Gemini Man, which was filmed here. Ordered two…
