PARTY ALL WEEK LONG: MERCÈ 2014

Five years ago, I came to Barcelona to  visit Chris and to celebrate my 19th birthday. It also happened to be the time of the Mercè festival; it was the first time I experienced a correfoc and saw the castellers in the middle of the crowd at Plaça Sant Jaume. There were free concerts everywhere, parades, light projection shows, fireworks at the beach: I couldn’t have picked a better place to celebrate my birthday. This year, I was finally there again to enjoy the biggest festival of Barcelona!
