First, the fact that you do not want to disclose some details in public is enough to make me or anyone else suspicious. A way around the system? I am sorry but I just can't buy it. Second, the inforamtion in those websites is perfectly valid, at ... Read More

are there filipino communities in girona, catalonia? by marcguerrero

why aren't there so many filipinos in girona compared to madrid, barcelona and other key spanish cities?

emarinuk

Because Gerona, Spain, is small and may not be so attactive to them? Filipinos for now settle where they have jobs (usually restoration or healt-related). Obviously Madrid, Barcelona, coastal cities have much to offer than Gerona or other cities ... Read More
