In 2006 I took my daughter on her very first trip outside the UK, in fact her first aeroplane flight anywhere!
The destination? Barcelona, we stayed in Vilinova La Geltru, but it was so very close by train to Barcelona we could not resist showing her the amazing sights of Gaudi’s Barcelona.
This video will show the Casa Mila.
When Gaudi built the Casa Milà in 1912, most people had no idea what to think of it. The shape of the building is completely unique and like nothing the city had ever seen before. It is covered in limestone, glass and marble, and shaped by several waves that have an amazing effect on the interior of the building. Originally it was built as an apartment complex but now it functions as a museum and a venue that hosts several different art and cultural events.
Journeys From A Small Room 
What a special memory to share with your daughter! Barcelona is such a magical city, and Gaudí’s creations really do make you feel like you’ve stepped into another world. Reading this brought back my own memories of wandering around Casa Milà in awe.
