The nights the Barcelona family and I slept out on the beach under the stars were always epic.

The men would create a bonfire to cook over and then we would all jump in the salty sea. We made music and danced. We put our sleeping bags close and talk about things that mattered. The family consisted of youth from

Portugal, Israel, Brazil, France,Venezuela, Italy, Spain, Mexico, Chile, Finland & one other American from California…

so  our conversations were full of different points of view and varied topics.

Sometime around early morning we would pass out with our belongings in the middle of the close circle we made with our sleeping bags to make sure that the pick-pocketers stayed away. In the morning, we woke and again jumped in the sea. We spent a few days at a time living this way… beautiful, peaceful times those were.
