We try to make it a point to not just attend the trade show and leave… I love exploring the different cities and learning about the culture.
Barcelona had a lot to offer. It was my first time there and we allowed ourselves 4 free days to explore.

One element of Barcelona that I personally found inspirational was the architecture. From small store lined streets and massive gothic cathedrals to modern Calatrava monuments, the city is rich with layers.
