As you already know from previous posts, there is a Catalan tradition of which I am a true fan, the calçotada! This typical meal consists of eating a variety of scallion called calçot that is roasted directly on flames and eaten by hand, seasoned with a special sauce called romesco. Then, the embers are used to roast meats and sausages for the second course. The season begins in winter and goes until the beginning of spring. There is nothing I like more than going on a calçotada with friends, especially if it is a rural outdoor environment.

Last weekend I celebrated my birthday with my friends in the best possible way, spending a few days in a house in a village eating calçots. There are few things that can make me happier than some days in the mountains with my friends cooking calçots! A few years ago I celebrated it in the same way. You can see it here.
El fin de semana pasado celebré mi cumpleaños con mis amigos de la mejor forma posible, pasando unos días en una casa rural comiendo calçots. Creo que pocas cosas me pueden hacer más feliz que unos días en la montaña con mis amigos haciendo calçots en la barbacoa! Hace unos años lo celebré de igual forma. Podéis verlo aquí.
My second trip to Montseny was totally different. We rented a house in the mountain through airbnb in Sant Pere de Vilamajor. We were seven friends with one goal: calçotada!

__I kind of have started liking to spend lazy days in the mountains. It has never been the case. I've always preferred the big cities and the sea. Clearly Ideotta's love to the mountains is slowly seeping into me (although it will never overtake my fascination to the sea!) This winter I have been twice in the Montseny, a beautiful natural park near Barcelona. First time in the shooting of the brand Visual Poetry Barcelona and the second time for a calçotada (typical catalonian grilled food) with friends.
Cada vez me gusta más pasar días tranquilos en la montaña. Nunca ha sido el caso. Siempre he preferido las grandes urbes y el mar. Está claro que el amor de Ideotta por la montaña está calando poco a poco en mi (aunque nunca podrá superar a la fascinación que me produce el mar!) Este invierno he estado dos veces en el Montseny, un precioso parque natural cerca de Barcelona. La primera vez para el shooting de la marca Visual Poetry Barcelona y, la segunda vez, de calçotada con mis amigos.
