Casa Milà I need to be here NOW. Did I ever mention how much I adore Catalan art? Hence the work of Gaudi. If you haven’t already grasped the genius of his artistry, clickity clack on the photo for a good read artfarts =) Aside from Santorini, Barcelona makes the cut in my “places to see before I die” handbook.
