Hi, I’m Gabby – an Italian-American living in Barcelona and the creator behind this blog. Not too long ago, I packed my bags, left my familiar routines, and made the exciting leap to live in a new country. With dual citizenship and a lifetime of traveling back and forth to Italy, I’ve always been drawn to Mediterranean culture, cuisine, and lifestyle. But when I visited Barcelona over a year ago, I fell completely in love. Now, I’m lucky enough to call this sunny, vibrant city by the beach my home.
Why Barcelona? For starters, it’s sunny most of the year, which keeps my spirits high and my adventures endless. The food scene here is incredible, offering everything from traditional Spanish tapas to innovative gastronomic experiences.
Being close to the mountains means I can escape into nature whenever I need a breath of fresh air, and the shopping? Let’s just say it’s hard to resist the charm of Barcelona’s boutiques and markets. And of course, living by the beach adds an extra layer of magic to everyday life.
As for the language, I’ve been fascinated by Spanish since high school, where I first learned the basics. Over the years, I’ve continued to improve by immersing myself in Spanish TV shows and daily conversations, which has been both fun and rewarding.
Through Savouring Spain, I share my personal journey of embracing life in a new country, discovering hidden gems in Barcelona and beyond, and indulging in the flavors that make Spain so special. Whether you’re planning a trip to Spain, dreaming of relocating, or simply here for the food and travel inspiration, I hope you find a little piece of this Mediterranean magic in my stories.
Thank you for stopping by! Let’s savor Spain together.
