Barcelona, Spain Summer 2016 Polaroid

Polaroids of My Time in Barcelona (and Madrid)

After spending the month of June 2016 in Italy, I decided to fly to Spain for two weeks. First, I revisited my favorite city in the world, Barcelona, for a week. Then I went on to Madrid, a city I had never been to before. My Fujifilm Mini Instax 8 camera came with me on this particular trip, which gave me the opportunity to take a few polaroids of my travels. Continuing my series of polaroids from each city I went to, here are polaroids of my time in Barcelona and Madrid.

Barcelona

I love Barcelona. I kind of wish I brought more film packs with me to take more polaroids of this beautiful city. I’m still in the process of learning this polaroid camera. So even though I took more photos, a lot of them came out dark. The dark ones I ended up tossing. Unfortunately, I also got sick with a head cold my week here. So there was at least one day that I did absolutely nothing. Still, I think I managed to get some decent shots.

Madrid

Madrid was one of those cities that for some reason I spent the majority of my time walking but not taking photographs. It’s that weird dichotomy of taking everything in without distractions–living in the moment and feeling it–or documenting everything all the time and never really taking anything in. I did get a few more polaroid shots, but even though I kept them, I didn’t bother scanning them since they were so dark.

I’m behind on sharing my Joy Journal spreads in my I’m behind on sharing my Joy Journal spreads in my Hobonichi Weeks. This was the week right before Christmas. xx
I’ve got a new YouTube video up, going through my I’ve got a new YouTube video up, going through my 2025 journals and sharing what’s lined up for 2026. I’ll be using lots of the same types of journals, just the next versions of them. These are my main journals:

✩ Pocket Filofax - my monthly/weekly planner
✩ Hobonichi Weeks - my joy journal
✩ A6 Hobonichi Hon - my soulscape journal
✩ A6 handmade fabric journal - my lovely journal (art/junk/scrapbook memory keep hybrid)
✩ B6-ish handmade journal - my unraveling journal (and OLW)

Though, now that I have this video up, I’m thinking about adding at least one other journal—a small art journal. So, I might have to film an update lol. But I hope you enjoy if you watch. 

What’s in your lineup? xx
Another week, another spread in my Joy Journal. I Another week, another spread in my Joy Journal. I got to go to another Ben Barnes show, my second one this year! xx

Gosh! This is my 12th Unravel Your Year workbook!! Gosh! This is my 12th Unravel Your Year workbook!!

@susannahconway, I know you don't know, but I found your blog back in early 2013 while I was Googling "Why is the measure of love loss?" My dad had just passed away, and I was a recent college graduate with absolutely no direction—the grief just consumed me. I had read Jeanette Winterson's Written on the Body in my last semester, and that first line just kept repeating in my head.

Why IS the measure of love loss?—I wanted to understand what I was feeling and who I was in that moment because I felt so lost.

Gosh, I pored over your words and photographs! I was captivated by your unraveling. I bought your book, filled out my first UYY workbook that year, and chose a word for my year for the very first time. I even took your very last session of Unraveling in 2015!

Your end of the year workbooks were my favorite, though. They've become a ritual I turn to year after year. I collect all of my journals I filled for the year, put on my journaling playlist, spread out on my sofa, and reflect over my words and experiences. I then fill out the first half of the UYY workbook. I pause and go through Find Your Word next, which helps me flesh out my word and theme for my year, before I continue on to unravel the year ahead.

I LOVE this process. 

Thank you for sharing your story and for always offering these!

I didn't mean to write so much, but 12th! I've unraveled and grown so much since then. (and I probably sound like a broken record, always sharing these workbooks, lol, but they're so good!)

Happy Solstice, loves. xx
