Barcelona
After a long time, I finally get to live in a different city for a while. I want to learn Spanish, dance, work, meet new people, and see how much I can grow through all of it. Hopefully, this is only the first of many places I’ll get to live and learn in. And most of all, thank you, Giulia. I honestly don’t think I would have made it here without you.
Kapitel 1: Not Quite Barcelona Yet
1 – 2 September 2026
I didn't even make it to Barcelona on the first try. Somehow, that turned out to be one of the best things that could have happened.
Kapitel 2: Finding a Rhythm
3 – 4 September 2026 · von Karl · 4 Kommentare
Work was already starting to feel normal. Everything around it still felt completely new.
Kapitel 3: Sunlight, Hotpants and Nowhere to Be
5 – 6 September 2026 · von Karl
The weekend started with sunlight on my desk and photos from the night before. It ended with one of those Sundays where almost nothing needed to happen. Somewhere in between, I thought a lot about closeness.
Kapitel 4: A Little More Mine
9 – 11 September 2026 · von Karl · 2 Kommentare
A few quiet days gave way to one of those evenings that just kept opening into the next thing. By four in the morning I was still dancing. Five hours later, I finally let other people into this little world I had been building.
Kapitel 5: Plan B, C, D and E
11 – 12 September 2026 · von Karl
A public holiday, people climbing on top of each other in the middle of Barcelona, a new person moving into the flat, Karleidoscope finally going public and some very stupid drinking games.
Kapitel 6: An elf to fall for.
12 – 14 September 2026 · von Karl
A pair of elf ears, an unexpected crush and the strange feeling of getting very close to someone very quickly.
Kapitel 7: Mithalten
15 – 16 September 2026 · von Karl
Versuchen, mit meinem Spanisch mitzuhalten, mit einer Salsa-Kombination – und einen Tag später mit Barcelonas Wetter.
Kapitel 8: Zu viel im kopf
17 September 2026 · von Karl
Henna, Rumba Guaguancó, sanfte Männer – und noch ein Abend, den mein Kopf nicht einfach einfach sein lassen konnte.
Kapitel 9: Irgendwo über Barcelona
18 – 20 September 2026 · von Karl
Ein geheimer Rave irgendwo in den Hügeln, ein verkatertes Montserrat und ein Sonntag im Park.
