Where to Eat?

Anywhere. That was my favorite part. All of the food was fantastic. And with some many things being tapas - small plates - made it so easy to try and sample all kinds of new and different foods.

Travel Tips

Everyone was very friendly and lots of English speakers.

Barcelona is in the Catalonia region of Spain (and its capital), which has its own language Catalan. Great news though, most people who live in Barcelona are bilingual in Catalan and Spanish. As well, many people understand English. Find out more language tips.
