Hostel Territory

So we've set off to Barcelona to live the dream and open our very own hostel. We're keeping this journal online to keep everyone updated of our progress, adventures and mishaps navigating Barcelona's booming tourism industry, Spanish bureaucracy, and daily life in Catalunya.

So now we're in the full swing of things. We had our first fully booked night on Tuesday. There's a food convention in town, so a lot of our bookings were related to that. We finally got nice chairs in our lobby, so it's great to sit around with guests and chat.

So far, we've met a lot of really great and interesting people. We had two Belgian girls stay with us that work for a company that makes artificial sweetner. The left some samples and some mock-late. Even better, there are two Spanish guys from Johnsonville with us now who are leaving us with brat samples! (My inner mid-westerner is coming out). We had a Japanese guy on a round-the-world trip here last night who showed us his great pictures and taught us magic tricks. We bought a guest book to keep track of everyone staying with us.

    Can't wait to drop by and see the place. You have awesome decoration and every furniture I believe is a piece of art.

    I would imagine it will be fully booked going forward.
