REGULAR EXPAT BLOG MEET UP- 30 March by NRGreer
Hi everyone. Great night at The Temple Bar. We discussed the possibility of having a regular, monthly, meet up. Very informal drop in for all º£½ÇÂÒÂ×gers, friends and whoever else wants to come. I am thinking the last Friday of every month. ...
I haven't been on here for ages, been super busy with moving house, work, etc. etc. but I'll be there on the 30th. I live just down the road from there, but have never been in, I always just assumed it would be really touristy, I'm curious now :) Read More

We're moving to BCN in April 2012 - need help with a few things! by kaylaurabarcelona
- Can anyone recommend a nice area to live in the city? (was thinking Eixample area) - How much am I likely to pay for a decent 1 bed apartment? - Is it best to have an apartment ready to move into or come over and stay in a hostel whilst we ...
If you're looking for the best location consider: the city center=the most crowded and noisiest place in the world, is not a good value since the flats are old and expensive. Eixample is a good option and is not unusual to find good prices for good ... Read More
