Adventures in Figueres

By Fiorella Torrejon

Day 6th was the start of new adventures in Figueres and Barcelona, Spain. We woke up early on the day to enjoy our last french breakfast which consisted of savory and sweet croissants, and right after that, we took a private bus from Paris to Figueres which was about 5 hours. We were able to rest in the bus while making it to such a magical town. We learned there that Figueres was the native town of Salvador Dali which was the main artist we focused on that excursion. After exploring the Figueres streets, we finally made it to Dali’s museum, I was baffled to see such an amazing surrealistic pieces and imageries, specially in the era that it was developed, i've also learned there that Dali was a very special introvert person but due to his deficiencies in other life terms, he was able to create such empire with his mind and make it unforgettable preserving his image and ideas forever.
