I live in Barcelona since, 2001. I love this city, I'd rather die than moving from it. work: you can work in Barcelona in english if you want. Comparing it with the rest of the country, Barcelona it's way more bilingual than the rest. You can live well with spanish anyways. But in the tech industry english is really awesome. Side by side with Madrid, Barcelona it's another big technological hub. I would really love to connect with anyone from HN to start projects (I have a couple in queue). lifestyle: Barcelona is relaxed. It's organized compared with Madrid. You have the beach near any point without making an hour in bicycle. Food is not expensive, prices are affordable. rent: since 2001, Barcelona was the 5th most expensive city to live in, but now, with the crisis, things changed a lot: I have a nice, new flat for 625€/mo. Fully equiped, not so centric located, but at 10min in train, 15 min in metro from the center of the city and 7 mins from the beach, so its a big deal.
