After waking up on a lazy saturday I love going to La Boqueria market (Mercat de Sant Josep) to buy some vegetables, fruits, fish to set up a nice lunch at home.

This is the perfect place to read a book while you enjoy a good coffee and a tasty and organic piece of cake. They also do a delicious brunch.

Poblenou in the district Sant Marti, it means "new village" in Catalan. This area of Barcelona was mostly factories, today it is a modern residential area which is home to the @22 Barcelona hi-tech business district. Is one of the most overlooked areas in they city, and in my opinion has many great things to offer.. run-down in parts, but very open with tons of light and close to the beach, Poblenou is perfect for anyone who wants to live a slightly more quite lifestyle but also have complete and easy access to the craziness of the city centre.

Beautiful modernist building (inside and outside)
