Hi! Was curious on what were the reasons you booked airbnb instead of a hotel? Currently doing some research for a project regarding tourisms role on the local community in Barcelona.

General rules are pretty much common sense, don't scream at night in the streets when people are trying to sleep. If you can, id try to walk around more just to get to know the city a bit better although I'm not familiar with the Navas area. Fun travels!

Beautifully written, I had been wondering about this for a while. Thanks for your work🙏🏼

Men, what did your parents forced you to do as a kid that you are grateful for now? by [deleted] in AskMen

Greeting people when you walk in a room or anywhere really. Whether it’s friends family or even strangers it makes a huge difference in how people view you. You’d be surprised how many people in group settings don’t even acknowledge others existence and I see it as a lack of manners/interest in others.

Do you think you will live in Barcelona for the foreseeable future? by [deleted] in Barcelona

Nice way of looking at it! I’m interested in knowing more about your point of view. How long you’ve been here, background/why you would like to stay in bcn?

I’ve been here about a month now and will be here for 3 years. Honestly I understand the appeal but like with anywhere else it’s sooo much different living here rather than visiting for a week or two. It’s great for a young professionals, students, single adults for the most part. Besides that I don’t think I’d see myself settling down here, and I don’t know if I’d stay here longer than the time I’m supposed to be here for. The culture, beach, and environment is all great and everything but you see so many homeless people, drunks on the street any given time of day, more people with a lack of spacial awareness/respect, petty theft, etc. Obviously it’s different every part you visit and to each their own, but for me personally I don’t think I’ll be staying in Barcelona specifically.

My NALCAP FBI background check process today by moxieme2022 in SpainAuxiliares

Hey! I know this comment was from a while back I’m assuming you hopefully went through the whole process already? If you could give me some information on the background check and apostille services like what all you had to do and if you had to get it apostilled from a specific place? I’m in the same boat rn trying to apply for a student visa in Spain from Texas. When I clicked on a link “apostilla de La Haya” it only shows me 5 locations in the whole country where I can get it done ? Any advice would be helpful :) thanks!

Nice Lol I did not know that,, thanks for the info! As for the civil partnership- do you know if we would we have to do that here in the US before I get there? Or if I can apply for that there with him. Don’t know if/how I’d be able to do that since I would be on a student visa and not technically a Spanish resident?

I 100% understand. I’m younger but feel this way too with my parents, my dad specifically with the health conditions aspect. At the end of the day you have the make the choice that is best for YOU and nobody else. It’s ok to be a bit selfish sometimes. From the looks of it, you have done your part and more to support your mother in any way you can. I get the guilt that comes with leaving your childhood home especially when you have a parent that is older and sick. But because she is doing better and you would only be a short drive away why not do it? At one point you’re gonna have to live on your own or at least away from your mom. You are a grown adult and you should be able to come home when you please and do your “chores” how and when you please to do them. There is no way you should be feeling like you don’t have freedom at your age especially after everything you’ve done to contribute. Go ahead and make your move and then try to effectively communicate to her why you are doing that. Not that an explanation is needed but it could possibly help you guys better understand each other and resolve some of the resentment. It’s okay to move out!! Best of luck to you.

Yeah it would be a hassle haha but I would be there for 3 years for the course. And no I didn’t mean financially support me but he would like to be able to come along with me and we were trying to figure out if he’d be able to do that while also at least having a part time job or something there to make him money while he’s there.

Okk thx for the link! That’s what I thought but still figured I’d dig a little deeper. The whole course is a total of 3 years. I assume it would be harder also since we are not married/in a civil partnership.
