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.

Forget the Bus Turistic, the coolest new way to see Barcelona is a GoCar Tour. Lee and I went on tours with Lee's friend in town from Hong Kong, Christine and our friend Tom. You get to drive the streets in little yellow cars with a GPS system that takes you on a tour. The voice-guide is mildly humorous, and directions got a little confusing. It'll be interesting to see how real out-of-towners manage to navigate the roundabouts and small streets of Barcelona. But it was great to zoom around in a bright yellow car honking and waving at everyone who couldn't help but stare at us. Much more fun than having to pedal on a bike tour or sit on a sticky bus with 50 other people.
