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.

A few things to report today

1) Just posted a job listing, and we've had 27 responses in 2 hours. Not a new record but definitely a sign of the times.

2) Our cleaning lady just reported that the Mossos are all over our block and surrounding area indicating another big protest today. I haven't hear the helicopters yet.

3) In an effort to research our newly elected mayor, Xavier Trias the first non-socialist mayor in decades, I came across this article . I like what he has to say so far!

4) Pain in the Ash is BACK. This time it's a new volcano, Grímsvötn. 252 flights to Scotland and Northern Ireland have been cancelled so far. We have a few Scotish guests staying with us, so fingers crossed they can make it home in a few days.
