Personal comments
There are so many places to go at night that it is hard to choose one place or a specific area, however, I enjoy going out in the Gracia barrio as there are a lot of smaller, more intimate bars. There are many places to visit in Barcelona; Parc Guell, Sagrada Familia, Parque de la Cuitadella, any other park in the city, Montjuic, Tibidabo, etc.

Overall
In the degree I learned to use languages in multiple fields, to write and speak professionally, to analyse the target audience.... I was given the opportunity to study abroad and that is an incredible experience, both academically and personally.

I've studied Business Management and Economics at UPF. With UPF I've had the opportunity to go on exchange to Wharton (University of Pennsylvania) and the University of California, San Diego.
