and Restaurante 9 Reinas in Barcelona.

I really like Can Pau – love the venue and the food. The duck is great! But I have many favorites. Ibiza have plenty of amazing restaurants.
The best sunset spot for a cold drink…
I could say the west of the island, you have plenty of amazing venues to enjoy the sunset with a cold drink! The list is too long… Sunset Ashram is one of my favorites for sunset.

I love this song, always it makes me happy and I remember me the essence of real Ibiza. It always in my mind and heart.
Your favourite Ibiza dish
Bullit de peix

Spending all day with my love and good friends. Enjoying the beautiful nature of this amazing island, going at the beach in the morning…
eating Bullit de peix at noon…
…and in the afternoon going to an open-air party (over the sand). And later where everybody would like to dance!
