Weey better then Los encantes

You who live in Barcelona are probably familiar with the market Los Encantes by Glories, if not, you are a complete naco and you should go and check it out. There you can find clothes for 1 euro, vintage and new things, you can find nice jewellary, and also a lot of shit. You need to prepare yourself to dig in, in order to find the treasures. I'm one of those, because I get so excited everytime I get to a market. Today we was to the market and I got more excited then in "The action", I will get to it later.

This weekend was a normal borring weekend, I was working. I got to bed after work without doing anything, sadly but true. I feel exhausted here quite frequently and I think it's due to the hight over see, or I'm still having a winter depression. Winter depression comes with dark and here there are a lot of sun so I doubt that. I miss my friends though, but I need to learn how to deal with it since I will be traveling a lot in the future. Your friends are gonna be moving around as well. This is the adult life I guess, and it's boring.

Now I totally lost my point of this poster and I know it's pretty normal for me, I can't stay focused, too many things around. My promise to myself today was to try to wright less and put up more pictures since that is the ideal of a blog. Many times I can not stop writing.

We had a wonderful day today, waking up more or less early, driving the car in the refreshing weather, a good mix of sun and wind. The weather is perfect here besides the a little bit too chilly nights, it's winter though. We went to a market called El mercado de Molino. I was trying to find it on google but there are no information, so I will just show you some juicy pictures of what I bought and the market.



Fotos: Shoes to the left are Mrs Claus shoes, meaning looks like the shoes the wife of Santa Claus would wear. The other pair is the famous witch boots.

I also have bought a classy pair of stripper shoes, for working, not as a stripper but as a promoter. Other things I found on my way, a lovely 20's dress, underwear, the red socks you can see in the photo, a diadem and everything cost almost nothing. We also passed by a commercial center in Interlomas where I bought christmas cards which were way more expensive then the things I bought at the market.

This was just the start on my treasure hunt here, Kike told me there are many more bigger and better markets. What sucks is that I can not bring with me too many things and I have too many things waiting for me in BCN. I need to bring all back to Sweden to continue my journey, and it's two IKEA bags, and one big suitcase of stuff. I can not separate myself from my things.
Here follows more picture from our day, I found this really weird candy and for Kike, of course, completely normal candy. It's a spoon of chili-sauce?





At the market we got to eat Tacos, not too unusual, and I'm sure it was the cartilage of a pig-ear in mine.



I didn't mind so I went to ask for more, for Kike. I just eat one taco in the street and my stomach answers with pain. Your stomach has to adapt to the bacterias that are in the food here. It's hard work. What will not kill you, will make you stronger, in this sense it's so true. Now I'm gonna relax after dinner and probably watch a movie. Good night.
