Had all my courses in English since I have been doing a International Masters Programme. All other students had courses in Spannish, we were an exception.

Personal comments
My favorite spots were the place where there were a lot of people. That about in any at any time in Barcelona. I very much liked my own neighbourhood "Gracia" which had a lot of small bars, restaurant and squares(plazas) with terrases. And I very much liked the neighbourhood around the Rambla, where there were always a lot of people. Best place: La Oveja Negra, just next to the Rambla. Everyone knows it, but it's so incredibilby easy to make new contacts over there. That's what I loved about it.

As everybody speaks catalan, it was nice to learn it, you don't have to, though, as everybody speaks Spanish too, but still, it is a good experience.
