Should You Invest in Peer-to-Peer Lending in 2026?
The world looked very different for P2P lending investors in 2018. Bank savings accounts paid next to nothing. Government bonds were a joke. If you wanted your money to actually grow, you either accepted equity risk or you went looking for alternatives — and P2P lending, offering 10-15% annually, was a compelling answer. That case […]

The Best Electric Bike Kits for Brompton in 2026
I love riding my Brompton in Barcelona and other places when we travel. In fact, I’ve taken it with me all over Europe since it’s so easy to travel with it, whether it’s by plane, train or car. It’s a great means of transport, but it’s also true that if you live in hilly regions […]

Frescobol – My Favorite Beach Sport
This summer I discovered a new sport that I love to play on Barcelona’s beaches. It’s called Frescobol. Frescobol is unique because instead of an opponent, you have a partner, and the goal is to support your partner rather than to try to win or score points. At the most basic level, it is a […]

Riding a Bicycle in Barcelona
Barcelona is quite a bike-friendly city. The number of bike lanes is always on the increase, and in general, drivers are quite conscious and respectful of cyclists, although you find exceptions. It is also a city that is plagued by comparatively high levels of air pollution, and even higher noise pollution due to the exceedingly […]

Bouncing the ball before serving in padel serves to focus the serving player on his next shot and point, and there is no rule saying how many times the ball can be bounced. The only rule that is related is that about time wasting, however, I’ve never seen a player being given a warning due […]
The Importance of Proper Mobility in Padel
As part of my journey to becoming a top padel player, I recently went for a mobility evaluation session at the sports department of Fisiogestion in Barcelona.
