Hiking & biking weekend in Horta de Sant Joan (Terra Alta) [map] in the South West of Catalonia at the border to Aragón. Biking down an old railroad track of the Spanish civil war and two hikes in a gorgeous landscape. One at dusk with a beautiful sunset, the other one during the day with a crowd of hungry vultures circling above our heads. Great wines, a lot of Vermouth and plenty of delicious local food.

Another session of mushroom hunting in the Collsacabra mountains of Catalunya [map] with my friends Pascual from Argentina and Jordi and his family. We also visited Anigami, an outdoor- and adventure company owned by some of their friends and had quite some fun there. All in all another great weekend in España, or better Catalunya – not to upset anyone
