    Default A renovated Spanish home

    Near Barcelona, an ancient oddly-shaped building becomes a comfortable weekend home.

    lol, love the pic of the kid staring at the wall, it's very existential. I like the second view, but hate the rest.

    Not digging the stone walls at all. It looks too cave-like.

    So cold, need rugs. And I fear the walls crashing down in an earthquake. Soooooo very cold... I love the bathtub but of course also fear it...heaven forbid I have a few glasses of wine while soaking in the tub.

    trust me, you want a cold, stone house in andalucia. winters are super mild but summers are so fucking hot you want nothing other than a cold stone floor to lie down on, naked.
