Hot Wheels. Quick Stop, BCN.

Updated: Jan 27


Besides my unwavering love for luxury sunglasses and the thrilling excitement of skateboarding, I have developed a profound passion for cars that has only intensified over the years.

Cars, to me, represent not just a mode of transportation but a symbol of freedom, adventure, and engineering marvels that ignite my imagination.

In 2021, I made a significant purchase that would further fuel my automotive enthusiasm, I bought a brand new Mustang.

This iconic American muscle car was not just a vehicle, it was a statement of my personality and my love for speed and style.

Over the course of three years, I cherished every moment spent behind the wheel, navigating the bustling streets of the city.

The Mustang's powerful engine and sleek design made it an absolute joy to drive, allowing me to experience the thrill of the open road while effortlessly merging into city traffic.

It was a great car to have in the city, providing both comfort and a touch of adrenaline whenever I needed it.

As the pressures of daily life began to weigh heavily on me, particularly during a tumultuous period in my country marked by unrest and uncertainty, I felt an overwhelming urge to escape.

To relieve the tension and find some semblance of peace, I decided to take an impromptu trip to Barcelona, a city that holds a special place in my heart.

My plan was simple yet exhilarating, to skate along the vibrant streets and experience the thrill of driving a supercar, all while immersing myself in the rich culture and beauty of the city.

During a time of chaos and turmoil back home, I found myself suffering from sleepless nights.

The frequent war alarms shattered any semblance of peace, leaving me in a constant state of anxiety.

The stress was palpable, making each day feel incredibly intense and overwhelming.

It was in this context that my desire for a getaway became a necessity, a chance to breathe and escape the harsh realities of my environment.

Arriving in Barcelona felt like coming home, it was a city I had previously lived in for an extended period before the onset of COVID-19 disrupted lives worldwide.

The moment I landed and took transportation back to the familiar neighborhoods where I used to wander daily, a wave of comfort washed over me.

The atmosphere was completely different—more relaxed and easygoing—especially when compared to my home, where the sound of bombs flying overhead had become a grim backdrop to everyday life.

In Barcelona, I allowed myself to unwind and indulge in some good books, savoring the luxury of time and space.

I moved between a few locations and hotels, each offering unique views and environments that enriched my experience of the city.

From the lively, crowded streets to the tranquil parks where I could find solace from the clamor, it was truly nice to have some time to myself to explore and reconnect with my passions.

During my stay, I made it a point to visit some friends, and I thoroughly enjoyed skateboarding with a few of them in downtown Barcelona.

The energy of the city, combined with the camaraderie of my friends, made for unforgettable moments filled with laughter and shared adventures.

Additionally, I took the opportunity to meet up with some acquaintances from the glasses industry who had established businesses in the area.

It was truly heartwarming to catch up with all the homies, reminiscing about old times while also discussing new ventures and aspirations.

An exhilarating moment of my journey was having the opportunity to drive a stunning yellow convertible Lamborghini Huracán.

The moment I slid into the driver’s seat, I felt a rush of excitement like no other.

The roar of the engine and the sheer power at my fingertips were exhilarating, making every twist and turn of the road feel like a thrilling adventure.

The experience was not just about speed, it was about feeling alive, embracing the moment, and enjoying the sheer joy of driving a supercar in a city renowned for its beauty and vibrancy.

Barcelona is truly a great city, rich in culture, history, and stunning architecture.

The blend of modernity and tradition, coupled with the warmth of its people, created an atmosphere that was both invigorating and comforting.

My time there reminded me of the importance of finding joy in life, even amidst chaos, and I returned home with a renewed sense of purpose and inspiration.
