Living in Barcelona, Spain

I’m not very sure, but at this moment I would like to live in Spain, specifically in Barcelona because It seems to have a very nice life style. In urbanism I have been taught about that city and its planning by Cerdá.

First of all it is thought for the pedestrian, favoring the public walking, bicycles and public transport instead of cars. This way they make the public spaces the most important thing. Because of this it doesn’t matters if you live in a small apartment, cause there are plenty of parks and different public space where you can spend your time. I imagine that in that city you never get bored there is an intense night life, it always has big shows and concerts from artist that would never visit Chile.

Also I heard that the working day has less hours than here and that they have more free days.

In consequence, there exists a better lifestyle and I would feel comfortable because they speak my language. Also finding a job wouldn’t be too difficult and I would be able to see every day pretty architecture of incredible architects, like Gaudí.
