    Hello!
    Are you a Catalan person living in Galway or Co. Galway? Would you like to meet every now and then? I've been living in Galway since last 2006 and I've met lots of Spanish, Basque,...but I miss speaking my own language...and, "la terra es la terra":)...
    Hope to hear from you soon!
    Trish.

    I meant the city, not the club :)

    Things to love
    * Scootering through the city
    * The beach at night
    * Movies on big screen in Parc de Montjuic
    * Maoz on Carrer de Ferran

    Not to love
    * Pick pockets
    * Queueing at the Dali museum (damn touristy stuff)

    Will go back again in 2009!

    Oh! sorry...I thought you were talking about the club because Barca is the soccer club, Barcelona is the city. Barca is the abbreviation of Barcelona but only when talking about the club. Barcelona is Barcelona, no abbreviations. By the way, Barcelona is not Spain either! ;)
    Glad you like it! Just let me know if you need help!
    All the best.

    Well, whatever about Galway, I remember a friend telling me there were so many Basques living in the Beechmount area of Belfast that they were thinking of re-naming it BASQUEmount:D:D:D. Been to the Nou Camp and its an unbelievable stadium, would love to see a match there. And the football museum is fantastic.
