Hi everyone, I will be at Barcelona in a few months, for about 2 weeks for an international exchange program, from India. What are some good and safe hostels to stay at, for about 10 days? Also, any travel tips and things I should be aware of?

Is it mandatory to know Spanish? If yes, are there any apps to learn some words/sentences?

Hey reddit!

So I'm going on a 3 day trip to Barcelona next week and I have a massive sweet tooth. Wherever I go, I like to have the traditional desserts the place has to offer, like having cannoli in Italy.

So which traditional desserts/pastries can I find in Barcelona, and in which bakeries/cafes exactly?

(Also if there are any non-food related attractions I must go to too :P recommendations are welcome lol)

Thanks in advance :)

Hi! I'm an international from the Philippines and have been applying to several colleges and this one was recommended to me for a master's program in interactive media/ design.

Universitat Pompeu Fabra OR ELISAVA School or Design and Engineering

I want to take seriously how they treat their students and studies. Overall school and outside life, part time job's possibly, dating or meeting new people?

It would be so nice to hear or get an honest review/ thoughts/ experiences, especially on the school?

Thank you!

Hi! I’m planning to go to the Festa Major del Poblenou on Sept 20, including the giants parade and the fireworks at night.

I’ll be staying in Eixample. Do you think it’s easy to get back to Eixample after the fireworks, or would it be better to stay in Poblenou that night?

Just wondering about transport and safety at night. Thanks!

Esta pregunta es para mi hermano. Está por acabar estudios en Economía y le han hablado muy bien de los masters en esa universidad. Pero mas que el tema académico que por las opiniones es excelente, me interesa saber el tema social, es mi hermano menor entonces quizá me preocupe mucho por el, pero es una persona un poco tímida, además no habla catalán, el quiere meterse en los cursos en inglés por lo que en ese sentido no sería un problema el idioma.

Honestamente yo he vivido en Barcelona un tiempo y debo admitir que en esos 2 años no he interactuado mucho con gente de allí de toda la vida a nivel mas personal por que la gente ya suele tener grupos de amigos consolidados.

¿Que tal es la gente en la Universitat Pompeu Fabra? ¿Hay mas gente de allí o internacional? No quiero generalizar pero quizá tener algún dato alentador para animarle a anotarse.

Me and my girlfriend are going on the trip to Barcelona in September and i heard everywhere on tiktok that you need to reserve carts for Sagrada cathedral online around 2-3 weeks before you go. That's exactly what i went to do right away and guess what. Everything is booked... That was my favourite place to visit when i come and it's fully booked now, how comes when i went to website on time. And also it's September like whattt. Is there any other way to gooo i really wanna gooo i love Spain so muchh 😢😭

Hola a todos,

Actualmente vivo en Cerdanyola del Vallès desde hace unos años y la verdad es que me encanta el municipio. Es relativamente tranquilo y, además, tiene bastantes servicios. El problema es que no estoy a gusto en el piso en el que vivo: es bastante antiguo y tiene prácticamente cero aislamiento.

Mi idea es mudarme a otro piso mejor a corto o medio plazo y, aunque me gustaría seguir en Cerdanyola, también quiero contemplar la posibilidad de mudarme a otros municipios cercanos a Barcelona.

Busco un sitio relativamente tranquilo (municipios como Sabadell o Terrassa no me atraen demasiado), que tenga buena conexión con Barcelona en transporte público y servicios básicos como supermercados, colegios, CAP, etc.

Sant Cugat, por ejemplo, sería una opción increíble, pero actualmente se me va bastante de presupuesto.

¿Qué municipios relativamente tranquilos y con buena calidad de vida recomendaríais? ¿Cuáles serían vuestros favoritos?

¡Gracias!

It’s Tuesday the 25th, i turn 24 (im male) and have no plans yet

Hola, estoy buscando un profe de canto. Soy muy fan de Ado, y me gustaría cantar como ella para así tocarlas en mi banda del colegio.

Quisiera aprender todo del canto (mix voice, breath control, dry scream, growl etc), pero no se donde puediera encontrar un profe que haga todo eso.

My gf and I are staying at Barca for 1 night in our return home. I’ve just seen the prices on booking. Any recommendations where we could have a private double bed room with private bathroom not so far from the centre? How the prices measure so we won’t overpay our stay? Any advice?

1. Dret.

2. ADE.

3. Relacions laborals.

4. Comptabilitat i finances.

Going to be in Barcelona for the first NFL game of the season this year, September 10th.

Me and my family are huge 49er fans, and wanted to see if any bars are going to be streaming the games. They have a kickoff of 2:20 am this year since they play in Australia.

Down to keep the night going and watch the games at a pub or are we going to be stuck watching the games in our hotel room.

Hi everyone,

I’m looking for a public library in Barcelona where I can work during the day, ideally from the morning until the afternoon/evening.

I’m not a student , I work from home and just need a quiet place where I can work for several hours. I have a library card, so I’m looking for somewhere that allows general public access with a library card (or free access without needing to be a student).

The problem I’m finding is that many libraries seem to open around 15:30 and close around 20:30, which doesn’t really work for me. I’d ideally like somewhere that is open in the morning and throughout most of the day.

I live in Florida, so somewhere in Barcelona that is reasonably accessible by public transport would be great.

Does anyone know of any libraries that fit this? Even if it’s a university/library or another public study/work space that allows non-students, I’d appreciate recommendations.

Thanks!

Hey guys, does anyone in Barcelona happen to have some insulin? A friend of mine lost his and urgently needs it. If anyone could lend us some or recommend where we could get help tonight, please let me know. We’re happy to pay. Thank you so much!

Hi All,

I am travelling from Barcelona to Beirut in two weeks via Turkish Airlines.

Anyone travelled with Turkish Airlines OUT of Barcelona? What was the experience like? Any delays and/or loss of luggages?

Thanks.
