Indy’s BLOG – Payday

Yesterday or to be more specific, this morning,  Vil had an alcohol accident. 🙂 He came home from work,  walked me and while doing so he checked his bank account and “quelle surprise” : PAYDAY!

So we went for a little bender which finished this morning around 0730. It started quite harmless, one beer and some food. After the meal the bartender offered a free shot and Vil decided to have a brown tequila with orange and cinnamon. You can’t stand on one leg,  so he took another one and that was just the start.

While drinking until the pub closed at 03:00 I made contact with some nice people. Vil also enjoyed to have a chat and even more drinks. Well, that was not the end. We went  “street drinking” and finally we ended up at a nice place with a fountain. No idea where. There we had a few six-packs and around 0700 Vil was very happy to walk home. In the beginning we had a little problem with the direction, because Vil was too shitfaced to read Google maps, so i took the lead and around 0730 we arrived at home.

Happy days.

Indy’s BLOG – Have a legal smoke in Barcelona

Have you ever been to Amsterdam? The town with the nice Coffee Shops, where you can smell the sweet smoke nearly everywhere, the “Menu” contains sweet weed, quality hash, cookies and much more stuff that can make you fly.

You think Barcelona is maybe the same? Forget it! That’s Amsterdam and Barcelona is totally different.

In Barcelona, you can’t buy weed in a coffee shop like in Amsterdam because cannabis is still highly illegal, but there is one way for the desperate smoker to get high without any complications. You can become a member of a so-called “cannabis club” and enjoy your smoke on their premises, but you can smoke only there and you are NOT allowed to bring your smoke to your hotel or even carry it on the streets with you. Attention, when you get caught, you might have to pay a hefty fine!

Here are a few tips to enjoy a weekend full of smoke and no stress.

  • Never ever buy weed on the streets.
  • Never ever follow a street promoter.
  • Never ever smoke on the street. You might smell marijuana everywhere, but that’s not an invitation to smoke yourself.
  • Inform yourself about the conditions on how to join a club. Normally you need to be 18 or 21+, have a valid ID and an address in Spain, which not be a hostel or hotel or someone who invites you and becomes your sponsor.
  • Read about the club you want to join.

Q&A

What fine should I expect getting caught with weed in my pocket? Well, really depends on the situation and there may be no penalty at all, you pay a fine or you go to jail.

What’s the “best” association in Barcelona? There are plenty of associations in Barcelona.

Do I need to be a Barcelona resident to join an association? Nope, Someone can invite you into the club and become your sponsor.

How much is the membership fee to join an association? Mostly around 25 Euro a year.

What’s the quality? WOW!

How expensive is the weed in Barcelona? Around 10 Euro a gramme

Can you become my sponsor?

Nope! Sorry.

Indy’s BLOG – Bye Summer 2016 (Huge Gallery!)

Rain, thunder, and storm. Summer 2016 is definitely over, autumn arrived. It was an amazing time and we had a lot of fun. Bottom line. Vil risked everything to find a new place for us and for now it looks like he succeeded. He found a job, we live in Barcelona and slowly we settle down. Summer 2016 thank you for a wonderful time, you will never be forgotten.
