Hi everyone. My wife and I are going to move from the US to Europe in the next 1-2 years. We have narrowed it down to Lisbon and Barcelona. We really like both places a lot. While Barca is much more touristy than Lisbon, its location is much more convenient to travel to the rest of Europe.
I am wondering how other people have felt about moving to Barca if you don't speak Spanish? We plan on learning, but at first, we will be relying on English. In Lisbon, English seems much more common. Also, I have heard about there being some changes where Barcelona is "forcing" expats to purchase apartments a bit further out of the city. Is that true?
I appreciate any feedback.
