becomes my tomorow's friend,
he who ever comes to visit,
Be welcome!
I don't know if I ever make it to your place.
But then I did not invite you to be returned the same gift from you.
Just promise me to remember what I did to you,
and if any other stranger comes across your path,
then do what I did and pass on the hospitality I showed to you.
Maybe then someday,
when I start my travel,
I will harvest the fruits
of what I once planted in your heart
and has been passed on
and some one will open his door to me.
This way the world will turn into a much better place to live.
Writen, on the 1st of September 2003, on occasion of my trip to Barcelona.
I didn't find many open doors, nor any VT members willing to meet up for a drink....3 forum entries and an event announcement and a growing sense of disappointment. My friends who have met me, and those who know me, will understand how sad I felt...
untill....
Untill two VT friends at the very end of my search for new VT friends, told me I was welcome.
Thank you so much Marie and Antonio (Listenandlearn) and Pere and Eva (Peret) for you kindness and the time we spent together.
You all added really very much to the value of this trip! I will never forget!
Always Under construction!
In a couple of decennia, if we are lucky to still be here, we might witness the result of years and years of construction.
Then we will look back at these pictures and wonder how never ending efforts can create such a beauty!

I enjoyed your tales of Barcelona & glad you met up with some vt'ers in the end :-)
Im really astonished about the huge quantity of 2 wheels transportation existing in Barcelona. Spetially the 2 wheels culture. I would like to come back and rent a scooter the next trip
You have written some useful info about Barcelona. Have a good 2006!
Always such a pleasure reading your pages, Dannie ! Amazing Gaudi ... lovely tips about the Trifasico and Creme Catalan :))
Danny, you did not tell, who the food hunter was!... I had a better time in Barcelona in February this year. Can't say the same for Madrid just recently visited. Nice page and tips.
