The stationer's Carabela in Sant Feliu de Guíxols is a great example of a family business that has managed to reinvent itself, following changing trends. Its founder rode the industrial wave that shook up the town at the start of the 20th century, and in the '30s, was at the head of a factory for paper bags that employed over 100 people. Now, 85 years later, the fourth generation of the Massós family has turned this exquisite shop into a meeting place for scrapbookers and anyone who thinks that God is in the details.
