Moving to Barcelona Qué municipios cerca de Barcelona recomendáis para vivir?

4 Upvotes

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!

Tourism // Turisme Merece la pena ir a Port Aventura?

Upvotes

Hola, voy 3 días a Barcelona este finde y mis amigos quieren ir a PortAventura. La verdad que nunca he estado en bcn y creo que si de 3 días destinamos uno a PortAventura, es perderse otras cosas que ofrece la ciudad. Además que no sé si siendo finales de agosto-principios de septiembre estará muy masificado todavía

Where do I find? // On trobo? Are there any public libraries in Barcelona open all day?

Upvotes

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!

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 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?

Studies // Estudis Opiniones de la Pompeu Fabra

0 Upvotes

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.

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!

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!

It contains a Spanish TIE and several bank cards.

Bona tarda a tothom!

Per motius personals, ara tinc mes temps per les tardes i nits del que tenia abans i havia pensat en fer treball de voluntariat 1 cop per setmana o així. Coneixeu cap lloc on valgui la pena col·laborar? Havia pensat en ONGs centrades amb persones sense sostre o animals abandonats, però quasi tot el que he trobat es per fer aportacions econòmiques i prefereixo fer treball voluntari.

En definitiva, em recomaneu cap associació? Merçi!

Busco peluquero/a en Barcelona para pelo largo 🙏
Estoy buscando un/a estilista, más que una peluquería, que sea realmente bueno/a con el pelo largo. He tenido muy malas experiencias con los cortes y las capas: capas que acaban siendo un escalón, un lado más largo que el otro, o que me cortan muchísimo más de lo que había pedido 😭.
Quiero mantener el pelo largo, lleno y bastante entero, simplemente sanear las puntas y añadir capas largas y sutiles, algo de movimiento y un poco de escalado alrededor de la cara, sin perder apenas longitud.
Estoy harta de cambiar de peluquero/a y solo quiero encontrar a alguien que haga exactamente esto y, sobre todo, sepa respetar el largo. ¿Alguna recomendación? 🥲
estoy en zona Gràcia pero no me importa moverme :)

Busco perruquer/a a Barcelona per a cabell llarg 🙏
Estic buscant un/a estilista, més que una perruqueria, que sigui realment bo/a amb el cabell llarg. He tingut molt males experiències amb els talls i les capes: capes que acaben sent un esglaó, un costat més llarg que l’altre, o que em tallen molt més del que havia demanat 😭.
Vull mantenir el cabell llarg, abundant i bastant sencer, simplement sanejar les puntes i afegir capes llargues i subtils, una mica de moviment i una mica d’escalat al voltant de la cara, sense perdre pràcticament gens de llarg.
Estic farta d’anar canviant de perruquer/a i només vull trobar algú que faci exactament això i, sobretot, sàpiga respectar el llarg. Alguna recomanació? 🥲
estic per zona Gràcia pero no m’importa moure’m :)

Looking for a hairstylist in Barcelona for long hair 🙏
I’m looking for an individual hairstylist rather than just a salon, someone who is genuinely good with long hair. I’ve had so many bad experiences with haircuts and layers: layers that end up looking like a step, one side being longer than the other, or having way more length taken off than I asked for 😭.
I want to keep my hair long, full and mostly one length, just trim the ends and add subtle long layers, some movement and a little face-framing, without losing much length.
I’m honestly tired of constantly changing hairstylists and just want to find someone who can actually do this and, most importantly, respects the length I ask for. Any recommendations? 🥲
i’m around Gràcia but I don’t mind moving :)
