Barbarakay is a fun person to have around, very pro-active, lots of get up and go. Our travelling experience was quite unique because we were working at the same time. She was always ready with a smile, had lots of stories to tell and was very easy to get on with.

She may have looked like a sad clown for Carnaval, but looks can be deceiving. Had a wonderful, if blurry, night for Carnaval. I just hope she makes it into Barcelona one day for another round of dancing!

Finaly I met Barbara, so we are living in the same city. From the very first time I talked to her I already knew that she is an very interesting girl. For sure I'm going to try to get close to Barbara and her boyfriend Jordi. We'll see... And she is the tiramisu master-queen.

Barbara is wonderful. We originally met at a Tiki party in London, and at the time I was sorry we didn't get to spend even more time together - since then, however, we have continued to write to each other, and I have loved every corrispondence. I am very excited for the day that I will see her again, and I hope it won't be too long! ANYONE who has a chance to meet my friend will be lucky!!!

Barbarakay and I met for the first time in June '06 when she visited London with her boyfriend Jordi. Since then we've kept in touch, become good friends and met up when I was in Barcelona. Both as a guest and a host Barbarakay is just great, I look forward to seeing her next time!

She's great! She's a wonderful woman and an amazing person. If you meet her sometime, you'll never forget her smiles, laughings and the great woman she is. She is very enthusiastic in all her friends, her family. Travelling is her passion and Christmas is her preferred time from the year. I'll never forget you!!
