This last trip took me to Barcelona during a contentious time due to the Catalonia region considering ceding from Spain. While I saw crowds and heard the banging of the drums I managed to stay away from those hot spots. The most difficult disruption was the inability to get a taxi.

I went from there to Malta just a few days after the car bombing of the investigative journalist, Daphne Caruana Galizia.

New friends in Barcelona were having fun naming my blog entries with a “Debby does…”  hence the title of this blog.  My brother-in-law told me of an article he read about the 20 most dangerous countries for tourists and wondered how many I have visited.  Unfortunately I have missed six of them!
