The finish line is just the beginning of a whole new race
During our lunch conversation with a bunch of collaborators at Memorie Cafe Velocity, which is a fusion of Eurasian Portuguese food, it brought back memories of the Portuguese Settlements in Melaka where you can get authentic Portuguese food for relatively good prices (or at least that was how it was but mind you, the last...

Just thought of posting a quick one that 1) illustrates how Barcelona is taking city streets back from cars with it's Superblocks model, and 2) the video giving some background to how the "blocky" nature of Barcelona was conceptualized back in 1859.

The plus point of staying just 1KM away from the starting point (Likassquare Condo) is that you can afford to wake up later and just saunter your way to the race venue.
