June 9th 2012- I finally made it to the couch surfing event in Barcelona after an eight hour bus trip and ran into some really great people on vacation. One shared his calamari and angry potatoes (a treat since I’ve eaten nothing but jerky, cashews and carrots since I started), another from Arizona named Kai bought my drinks through the evening and when he found out I was going to sleep on the streets he said no you’re not, you’re coming to stay with me. After the free concert we went to they went bar hopping then finally to a dance club. They, as a group, ended up going to a few places but nobody would let me in because I was in shorts, tennis shoes, a T-shirt and my outback hat. Kai finally offered to buy a bunch of drinks for the entire group if they would let us in and they did. Just had my first shower and loved every minute of it.
