This might be the highlight of the year: I got tickets to see Cate Blanchett perform in "The Seagull" at the Barbican in London! 😱😱

All the tickets had been sold out for months, and they just released few new ones today. OMFG, this is absolutely incredible—I’m so excited! 🤩🤩🤩

You might still be able to find a few tickets from today’s release here: barbican.org.uk/whats-on/2025/

I celebrated my first month in London by seeing Cate Blanchett live in The Seagull at the Barbican.

I didn’t love the play—felt like a chaotic script—but being just a meter away from her was incredible, and her performance was amazing.

She and Kodi Smit-McPhee (on her right side) also star in the "Disclaimer" show on Apple TV+, which is set in London, and I recommend it!

Theater, museums, concerts, meetups, and cultural activities are my favorite part of London. Madrid has a great and huge cultural offer too, although it lacks English-language theater and shows, they are in Spanish instead.

I've always felt that Barcelona is way behind when it comes to cultural events and museums, which is a shame.

What I do miss about Barcelona is its fantastic public infrastructure—especially the transportation system—along with its modern public libraries, night safety, and the convenience of having everything packed into a very compact, beautiful and functional city.

@marinaaisa really on museums in Barcelona? I think museums are pretty great in Barcelona and people visiting often comment to me as much. On cultural events, it feels a lot to me, of course not as many in English but such a diverse blend.
Glad you’re enjoying London!!
