About Me (assessment)


A Culé, A Barcelonista, A poor poor student. 




At the NGV

Being a 20 year old student in Melbourne with four more daunting years of studies ahead of me, I have decided that I need to spice up my life a bit and hopefully make another addition to my list of unforgettable experiences along the way.

As the influential writer pico Iyer says - 'we travel, in essence, to become young fools again — to slow time down and get taken in, and fall in love once more.'. Slowing down time and disconnecting from my surroundings and responsibilities is exactly what I need to... well, refresh myself in preparation for the coming years. 

So traveling it is!

Choosing Barcelona as my destination was a very easy task, the city is defined by eccentric architecture, innovative food and a vibrant street life...oh and did I mention Barcelona Football club?!


Nou Camp

I am a BIG Barcelona fan, I've supported them since I was 7 years old, so visiting the club and getting to meet the players would be a dream come true for me. Barcelona,  the city, has an incredible football atmosphere that can not be found anywhere else in the world. With futsal courts around every corner and great matches lined up every week, it is every football fan's paradise. 


I plan on getting lost into this new world, relax and just take my mind of things, and what better place to do this than the spectacular beaches that Barcelona is famous for.





and not to mention its history-rich, breath-taking architecture.

Sagrada Familia

Sadly, but nonetheless true, being a student is synonymous with being poor. Therefore, my angle is that of a football fan exploring and enjoying the wonders of Barcelona on a limited budget.
