Real Travel Adventures Goes to Barcelona

The wintery mix outside may have many readers longing for warmer weather. Brew yourself a café con leche and settle into my latest travel story, published in the current issue of Real Travel Adventures International Magazine. We’re going to Barcelona!


Real Travel Adventures is an online travel magazine that draws the eyes of half a million unique visitors each year. The current issue features my travel story, called “Spanish Holiday: Part 1, Barcelona.”

I’ll admit that the published story has been cut down to size, and much of the detail and experience has been omitted or altered—rendering some reference confusing or unexplained. But the story will give you a glimpse of Barcelona’s beauty, along with its darker side.

So warm that chill with me in Barcelona at Real Travel Adventures International Magazine!
