The Catalan capital is one of the best cities in the world to come and live and work or just take time out from your routine life at home . . . but if you want to get the best out of this vibrant city, you really need to learn the language . . . or should I say languages?
I've taught English in the Catalan capital since 1988 and my aim in creating this website is to provide an in-depth guide to everything related to learning, teaching and translating languages in Barcelona.

About Barcelona and Catalonia

Going Native in Catalonia
by Simon Harris
As author of the acclaimed Going Native in Catalonia [Catalunya] and a long-term Barcelona resident or Barcelonin, I would like to be your guide.
The Catalans are a proud nation with their own history and culture very different from what you might consider typically Spanish.
It's no surprise that
- Barcelona is one of the most fashionable cities in the world
- Antoni Gaudí one of the most influential architects in history
- FC Barcelona is the most popular football club in the world
But once you get beneath the surface of this amazing city, you'll find so much more!
