    Nice video. Thanks for sharing. You’ve locked yourself a nice rental at €800 per month. Those were COVID prices. I believe rents are more expensive now. I would add another €200-€300 to your total to get a more realistic calculation. Good luck

    You get the wrong transport card .
    make sure you use the T-usual card
    30 days for 20 euros
    unlimited travel in the city on bus, sub, tram

    • @PauliusCreates
      @PauliusCreates  ปีที่แล้ว

      You are right that it’s definitely cheaper and probably best option!
      What I personally found tho is that my wallet mess up a ticket and then it becomes unusable. But i guess with transport card this can be avoided now !

    I know you had lived in London, do you find Barcelona much much cheaper? I’ve only been to visit a few times and I found it so much cheaper. We are looking at moving there and I’m curious

    • @PauliusCreates
      @PauliusCreates  8 หลายเดือนก่อน

      I wouldn't say "much much" cheaper. But it's definitely cheaper. Especially something like transportation, eating out etc. Rent is quite high but definitely not as high as in London though.

      Hey, I was going to CFA Barri Gotic , in general you can search for CFA in Barcelona and it will give you public schools. They normally enroll people in September, but it might be worth just reaching out to them to get exact date.

      On busses they aren't , on metro I think it depends on the size, but generally yes and in terms of trains (intercity), some allow it and some don't you'd have to check whichever you take

      Apologies for slow response. A lot of companies ( especially international ones ) offer remote positions after covid. I am actually working in one right now too. Of course it is more common in tech ( or tech powered ) industry.
