We were clear about it. The cover photo of our special Love & Travel, in which Rigoberta Bandini and Alizzz would share a bed, in addition to being the protagonist, had to be on a boat. But not just any one, but on a sailboat named Delacroix. Because the freedom of the traveler is increasingly related to tranquility, with "my own way" and that "nothing stops me", not even a great sea like the Mediterranean. The slow tourism has come into our lives and also to our shores!

While we're at it, we have to confess that Barefoot is actually the launch name of the sailboat with which we went out to sail 'mediterranean' with both artists and, best of all, it can be rented both by the hour and for a whole week. It departs from the Marina Vela Port of Barcelona and belongs to the fleet – made up of more than 12 boats – of This is Med, creators of tailor-made experiences for companies and people who want to experience the sea in an extraordinary way in Barcelona, ​​Sitges, Costa Brava and the Balearic Islands.
