I try to continuously join programs to learn more about our history, art, and culture. I love to be in contact with people from abroad and show them Barcelona through walking tours in the Gothic Quarter and its hidden spots, by making them discover its gastronomy and wines, the art of Picasso, Gaudí and so many artists that had left their footprint here. I also give tours to the F. C. Barcelona Stadium. Barcelona is a spectacular place! Other tours will be in other places in Catalonia: Girona, Dalí Museum, Sitges, or Costa Brava.
