Muchas gracias!

Ahahaha true and good points

The best areas depends a lot of your budget for renting an apartment. In both places is hard to find apartments avialable for more than one year because of the new reting law. Maybe your coworker can helps you if you finally decide to move to Madrid but I can also help because I was living in Madrid region for almost 30 years. Write me a DM if you need additional or specific info. The same for anyone who be in the same situation

I’ve been in Barcelona for 3+ years now, I agree with people that locals seem hard to connect, Barcelona is very international, I initially moved here for a job and most people at the company were foreigner, with foreigner friends and this seems to be a common occurrence, I’ve also lived in Sweden though and I’d say Barcelona is easier than that to make friends, it’s however not as easy as latin america

In your opinion, what is the best coworking space in Barcelona?

you gotta be kidding me

uhjkznqj welcome to 2023

I’ve been looking into moving my main account to ING, do you have experience with it? Recommend it?(ever needed support etc)
I receive a salary from a spanish entity so I’d get fees waivered in a nomina account anyway

pjlbywpp in Feb 2022 we paid 1300/mo for a fucking basement, I believe it

yeah then I'd recommend it; because the only disadvantage I find with it wouldn't apply to you with "NoCuenta" accounts, getting cash from non-ING atms always ask for a fee

This is surely more than London at this point

wait a second, the image says 1bedroom

I wonder if they are comparing apples to oranges in terms of location. Like, super strict city center for Lisbon vs a bigger area for others? It really sounds unbelievable it would be so expensive

Hi folks, I've just booked a flight to Gran Canaria landing on Sunday 24th. Any recommendations in terms of accommodation? I'll be there for 2 weeks

bzefzndg it's very possible. And I would like to see the average... I met people paying 4-5k for flats in Alfama back then

Do you have recommendation for affordable private health insurance ideally for elderly?

Anyone has a coliving suggestion for Tenerife?

Haven't been myself, but have heard stellar reviews from multiple people about www.ninecoliving.com/|Nine Coliving>.

Haven’t been myself either, but have heard great stuff about this 1️⃣ www.ikigaicoliving.com/the-space - Also they have a hot tub 😄

Folks who have lived in Spain for some time I hear everyone gets out of the big cities in the summer months? I’m supposed to be in Barcelona for a year, but I’m wondering if it’s a bad idea and I should go somewhere else for the summer 🤔

I leave barcelona on the summer because of the weather and the prices. So yeah, might be a good idea.

All depends on your situation, many apartments will increase their prices (like, more than double sometimes) so that’s a main reason why people leave.
But if you get a guaranteed price year round and you like Barcelona and want to stay, then stay

I was trying for the past two weeks to find a place in Madrid and it is hard. People answer to my DMs from FB groups after 3 days and expect everything to happen in a minute. That is not tourist friendly at all. Barcelona seems easier with finding they at least answer fast. Never had an issue booking a place to stay. If you guys know a group or somebody who can help find a place for two weeks in either Barcelona or Madrid please connect me. Anybody knows if there are any Salsa/Bachata groups because the ones I found online are almost non-existent.

Does anyone have recommendations for small to medium size towns/cities in Catalonia to live full time and start a family? Probably 15k-200k people. We are thinking maybe Terrassa, but have been discussing looking at smaller towns too.

I hear Girona is nice and well-connected

Hi everyone, I’m moving to Barcelona before the end of the year and wanted to know if any of you know how to find an apartment to sublet, I’m planning to move there but I want to find a temporary place first to see which part of the city I like best.

Have you tried the temp rental options of ShBarcelona? Alternately you can check out SpotAHome to rent a room for a few months; otherwise indeed the ads on idealista are mainly long term, esp now that the peak of summer rental is over

Hey, thank you for the tips. I haven’t checked the 2 first options but I’ll definetly take a look.

anyone currently in ibiza? I'm here for a week and looking for some people to hang out & co-work with 🙂

if anyone's interested this is a list of specialty coffee places in BCN maps.app.goo.gl/5bb4ZW6f3QVua7WQA?g_st=iw|https://maps.app.goo.gl/5bb4ZW6f3QVua7WQA?g_st=iw

Cool. Thanks. Found few unvisited places. )

Thanks a lot, I’ll look into :slightly_smiling_face:
I’ve already contacted Enso. They seem to have lots of rooms available for November, but it’s still a bit expensive in my opinion.

I've hired an immigration attorney to assist me with the digital nomad visa application. Next time that I speak with her I will ask for clarification on the requirements for long term residency.

Hi, I've been trying to find a studio/penthouse with beach-side view for up to 1200€/monthly to rent in Gran Canaria from December to April. Over the past 2 weeks I've been sending messages to Idealista renters. So far, I've only received 1 reply. Most of these flats are now also already rented out (listings have been removed).

This is the message I sent to the 20~ flats I've been interested in:
"Hola, estoy muy interesado en este apartamento y me gustaría hacer una visita. Actualmente estoy en Eslovenia, pero le pediría a mi amigo que viniera a verlo, si le parece bien.
Saludos cordiales"

Now I plan to get into some Whatsapp groups for Gran Canaria flat rentals... Is there a better way to go about this? Does anyone have any learnings to share with me?

I’ve been grappling with Idealista for about 10 days now. Learnings so far:

• Definitely setup a saved search you get new listings that match your criteria in your inbox as soon as they’re published.
• Gotta be very aggressive with the agencies – now I call first, if that doesn’t work try to message on WhatsApp and on Idealista. I’ve found if you’re messaging on Idealista, you’re almost certainly not gonna get a response.
For some reason, there are a ton of stale listings on Idealista as well. I don’t get it. I’ve managed to see 4 places in the last week or so from this approach. Muchos suertes 🙂

Be sure they really want to rent for few months. Idealista is more focus on long stay, at least 1 year. Maybe Airbnb works better. Probably sounds strange for a local owner used to deal with locals than someone who is not living there ask for a visit. Maybe provide more context info about who you are, share profesional profile o simple call them whether the number appears to talk directly to the owner.

I’ve found the opposite price-wise. Apparently, Airbnbs in BCN need permits, which the city no longer gives out. The studio I’m in in El Raval is ~€1900 on Airbnb (including Airbnb fees). If I wanted to rent something comparable furnished, it’d be closer to €1100.

Folks in Barcelona, if you’re a coffee snob or like working at coffeeshops, I just found a good one near Sant Antoni. Very nice owner and great work spaces. maps.app.goo.gl/EV1oqNNV5myizFbB9
