My partner and I will be moving to Barcelona for their job in a few months and there are a few things we’re worried about with the move. Primarily we have two dogs that we will be moving with us. Anyone know what it’s like finding an apartment to rent with multiple pets? We’re worried we will have a hard time finding a place with the dogs. Also, I’m concerned about finding work for myself there as we’re aware the local job market and economy isn’t great — we won’t need me to make an income but I’d prefer if I had a way to make money for myself still. I don’t speak Spanish (starting lessons) but I do have over a decade worth of teaching experience in yoga and other forms of fitness, wondering if it’s an option to pick up gig work in the industry easily so I’m not idle while we’re there.
Any tips or personal experiences shared are greatly appreciated.
Hi. As a Spaniard, I can tell you that finding an apartment with the dogs will be very difficult but if you are patient you can do it. Also, consider nearby places like Badalona. If you want to work why don’t you try posting advertisements on expats in Barcelona’s Facebook group? Yoga in English for expats sounds like something that may work.
