I live in Napoli but if I could have chosen a place to live it would be Barcelona! I love the artistic and spiritual feeling of the city.

Enjoyed this Brian! Definitely gives me a lot to think about. Do you feel like you've been able to settle into a community in Barcelona and create some lasting relationships?

For sure, I know this can be difficult in some places but Barcelona is a very international city and there's events/meetups for any type of activity you might be into. Of course there are people who are transient and only stay for a year or two but over time I've built up a tight knit friend group with many of us staying here for the long haul. Come for a visit sometime!

Congrats on making this dream real. Too many slowly die from fear. It's really impressive you did it anyway and figured it out as you went along, living with uncertainty all the while.

How much are organs worth anyway ? Is that a Craigslist ?

And you can’t be comparing this place to the free state of florida with permitless carry and abortions allowed in the first 2 weeks ?

Not sure on the going rate for organs these days, will let you know when I find out, most likely I'll go with Ebay instead of Craigslist 😂
