....So we packed our bags and moved to Barcelona... :-)

Hello friends, family and all,

so we're actually in Barcelona now! And we've created this blog so that we can share our adventures in this beautiful city and beyond with you all.

We've been here over two weeks now but we're still settling in. There is so much to do! Getting the appartment set up (even though it was fully furnished we wanted to add some plants, pictures, decoration, etc.), creating our lounging area on the roof terrace (incl. Mattes climbing into building sites at 3am to get the wood needed to make all things beuatiful), checking out supermercados and mercados (so Kati can start planing new kati's culinary cooking festivals), getting inet installed and all kindsa other fun stuff.

Mattes started school already - even though it's only a Spanisch course so far they are keepig him there from 9am to 6pm, even on Saturdays... Evil! Nonetheless he's found the time to dive into the moto-market of BCN and is now the proud owner of a beautiful black Vespa - and I'm sure he'll tell you alot more about that ;-)

I (kati) have been enjoying some days off and focussing on getting my back back into place after that evil lumbago (during moving season por supuesto). Joined an ab fab fitness studio (Holme's Place) and am realizing the boundries of my physical abilities in my new Pilates, Yoga and Thai Chi clases. Am improving, at least I hope so.

We actually even already had our first vistors: Saskia and Philipp popped by for a few days and we had some great times bbqing on the roof terrace and discovering new corners of BCN. We weren't the perfect hosts as first Mattes was sick for 3 days and now I am sniffling around, but we believe they enjoyed themselves anyhow - Thanks for coming, guys!

So, that's all for an introduction for now, photos of all events, people and happiness shall follow...

Hasta lueguitooooo
