Thank you, Liza. The guide at the cathedral was so passionate, he inspired me. I’m glad you enjoyed it.

I visited in 2023 and loved it and only had the audio guide and even that was inspiring, but this added a level of whimsy that only you can add, so yes, I thoroughly enjoyed it

What a fun and informative way to bring Gaudi back to us, Francesca. Always wondered what lay behind his genius!

Cesca, one of the best things I’ve read lately. You are so so talented. I can’t wait to read more. I love that. It involved nature, art, God, and of course you and your questions and dialogue back-and-forth was so entertaining and informative thank you thank you thank you made my day

Francesca, what a treat to having been able to interdream with Antonio directly. I confess like Dali and Hundertwasser he does not belong to my favorite artists / architects and yet reading your interdream with him I thought, well maybe if I ever make it to Barcelona I'll consider it at least. And if what pushed me into the masses will be this essay. Just beautiful.
