Barcelona Due to cancellation I got the residence of Arts Council of Southeast Finland in Barcelona. One week visit was good to familiarize with local culture. The Mies van der Rohe pavillion is so stately, I had gooseflesh. The building is functionalistic. Its shallow pool fuctions well for rinsing swimming trunks.
