Doors to Spain

      Comments Off on Doors to Spain

Earlier this year, I took a much-needed vacation to Spain with my 2.5 year old. How brave am I? It was surprisingly smooth barring a few tantrums. But then, what’s a toddler without tantrums?

I was extremely inspired by Spain. A common theme I noticed across cities was the juxtaposition of the old with the new. Be it architecture, food or language (Spanish and Catalan). I am doing a series on my travels. See my posts on Madrid with a Toddler and Toledo with a Toddler.

Another thing that really intrigued me was the doors in Spain. I think of doors as a portal to another world. Something about doors always ignites my fantasy and Spain fed that fantasy! With this post I want to showcase pictures of some really unique doors I took on my trip. I hope you enjoy!

This one below was taken in Madrid, on our way to Puerta del Sol.
