48 hours and out: my Barcelona story so far

The first two days of my stay in Barcelona have been incredible. I've met a lot of fun people, seen some beautiful sights and taken part in some exciting activities. I would go as far to say it's been indescribable, yet I'm going to contradict myself and attempt to sum it all up in one post.

I'm going to Barcelona!

I'm sitting at home watching highlights of Chesterfield vs Swindon, surrounded by Barcelona guidebooks and listening to my mum make the last cup of tea of the day in the kitchen. My dad is driving me to Southend airport and wants to leave at 3am to make sure we get there in plenty of time. Is there any point in going to sleep?

No. And I'm far too excited to try!
