Videos from Barcelona

I recommend you a blog about Barcelona's blogs. It's called Barcelonasfera, this is their link...


You may know one of the blogs they recommend (The Australian New Zealander Catalan Society's Blog!!!), but this post is to recommend a new blog: Videos from Barcelona, they offer a fresh view of the city's landscapes. Have a look...

Messi's name goes beside Gaudi's in the index of Barcelona's greatest artists

Well, an obvious exaggeration but we redirect to this article on the Sydney Morning Herald, as a tribute to the champions....

Australian rap on the BBC

You can enjoy this fascinating 30 minute documentary on the BBC about Australian rap.
So if you are interested in music, education, indigenous affairs or life in Australia in general, I strongly recommend it. But listen to it soon, as most programs are only for a week or so.

Thanks Paul!!!
