Today I decided to go to El Barri Gotic (Gothic Quarter) and left around 2pm. I tried to take the metro there but I couldn't find it because the city is just baffling. I cannot figure out where things are, especially because there's hardly any street signs and all the maps on the streets are turned in different directions - so confusing. So I walked for quite a while and finally found the Arc de Triumf which is a really nice place to be and it happens to be right next to El Parc de la Ciutadella, so I just gave up on the Gothic Quarter and settled on a nice walk in the park. There's also a zoo which I plan to go to, and I'm definitely going to spend some of my extra time in the park. It was a very nice little trip for the day. I was going to go to a museum or something more exciting, but I figured they would be less crowded and better during the week.
Then on the way home I had some issues with my metro card, but managed to figure it all out thanks to my broken Spanish with the metro assistant. I was really proud that I actually got by with what I knew how to say and hopefully experiences like that one will help to improve my Spanish.
