What's your name and where are you from?
Martin Brown from London, England.
How long have you lived in Barcelona? Why did you come here?
I have lived in Barcelona for 6 years. I came here from Mexico and wanted to get back to Europe and Barcelona seemed like a good choice, combining art, design, history and culture.
Where else have you lived and how does Barcelona compare?
London , Mexico City and Barcelona. I guess the difference as much as a anything is size - both London and Mexico are vast cities, while Barcelona is fairly small and had a more laid back atmosphere instead of a heavy urban one.
What are the things you miss from home/the other places you have mentioned?
Theatre and friends.
Why did you start the blog?
I have been taking photos of the city and other places for a few years now and wanted a more public platform for these images.
What makes you think you can offer something different to the other Barcelona photoblogs out there?
I hope to take the viewer to some places that perhaps aren't shown by other blogs, small everyday details, visual things that I see as well as the more famous tourist attractions.
Is there anything you've not included in your blog yet that you'd like to?
Still a lot of pictures to upload, so keep on checking for updates. I also want to start photographing people as its something I would like to try.
Is there anything you try to avoid?
The obvious.
I'd like to thank Martin for taking the time to answer the questions, and for agreeing to the interview. If you haven't already, I suggest you check out his blog and subscribe for his unique view of the city.
