21st Annual Smithsonian Magazine Photo Contest Travel
Untitled (Barceloneta)

I had always wanted to try living in Spain ever since I visited with my family in college. I fell in love with the culture, the language, and the art. At the end of 2022, I found myself without an apartment due to a crooked landlord. I decided it was now or never for my summer in Spain. I booked an Airbnb, plane tickets for one, and I was off on my solo adventure!
