![]() Overall, I struggled a little bit in understanding why everyone is hyping Barcelona so much. Nontheless, I’ve got to say that we were lucky enough to get the best tartar mixer of all times at Bravo24- a truly nice guy with a great sense of humour who was surprisingly kind and obliging compared to the rest. ![]() I don’t know anything about Spanish education, nor do I want to say anything about the current situation (Hell no – a political discussion blog? “It ain’t happen”!) but if you pretty much depend on Inditex or tourists, then you better start learning English properly. I don’t know what it is – either the language issue or a general absence of training.īut it’s definitely there. The food was okay, the service was okay, the atmosphere was really nice – only the fact that English is (generally!) not that widely spread made me feel a little tired after explaining everything 2-3 times. Generally, I noticed that customer service is extremely poor in Barcelona. Sunshine and a relaxing afternoon at the beach – what more could I have asked for?!Ī night spent at Bravo24 tapas bar of the W Hotel was one of my favourite moments – mainly because I was fully enjoying it with my favourite people around and nobody else interrupting (I turn extremely anti-social while being in this writing tunnel these weeks). Instead, I spent one day at the Costa Brava, which, much to my surprise, turned out to be the most relaxing day of all during this little getaway. I haven’t been to Barcelona in ages and it felt like visiting a city slightly from scratch again although there wasn’t too much time to check out the fancy places. Since I’ve been visiting for a more private occasion and rather followed a strict plan, which didn’t let me escape on random wanderings around for too long, I barely was able to get a full-on city experience. I way too long held back to these few impressions, shot back during Easter break when I skipped the monotony of writing and researching for my dissertation and, instead, hopped down to Spain’s most popular city (that’s what it seems like …at least). It should have been different with a postcard from Barcelona, thinking about the fact that there’s not such a distance between this city and London. ![]() My postcard from South Africa took ages to reach the blog.
