Much of her free time was spent visiting different architectural monuments and museums in Barcelona, in particular the Sagrada Familia and the Catalan Museum of Art. She also attended numerous Spanish festivals and cultural events such as the “human towers.” On the weekends, T’Ericka took advantage of the opportunity to travel to various destinations throughout Europe. She was also able to travel to various destinations within Spain where she experienced distinctly enjoyable peoples, foods, and language.
