Secret Barcelona Guide by Rocio Sierra Carbonell
The secrets of Gaudi and the Sagrada Familia, a taxi-ride in the nude, a fantastic model railway network below the central station, a mysterious hand, an extraordinary dissection hall, an unsuspected anti-aircraft shelter, a deadly kiss, a museum in the back shop, some very special toilets, romance in love hotels or helicopters, ants and scorpions on the menu. Night and day, Barcelona only reveals its secrets to those residents and visitors who know how to stray off the beaten track. But you have to know where to look. An indispensable guide for those who thought they knew Barcelona well, or who would like to discover the hidden face of the city.
Rocío Sierra Carbonell is a freelance journalist and documentary filmmaker. Having lived on five continents, she now resides in Madrid with her two young kids. These days, Rocío mainly travels in her imagination, writing fiction for TV, theatre and feature films. After decades of writing about investment, finance and tourism, she is now immersed in the world of electronic music, finding the fusion of flamenco-funk-hip-hop particularly fascinating. A history graduate from the University of Barcelona, Dani Cortijo is now a secondary-school teacher. He specialises in the city's history and for years worked as an official Catalan tour guide, focusing on revealing unknown sides of the city to Barcelona locals. In 2009 he won Catalonia's Culture Blog Award for his altresbarcelones.com project, and has spent the past 15 years researching and shedding light on the history of the city through books, TV, radio and the written press. He has collaborated in a wide range of media outlets, most prominently Catalunya Ràdio, Betevé and, currently, NacióDigital.
