The Spanish Digital Nomad Visa is a complete DIY process. This visa is valid for 1 to 3 years. You can travel around Europe with a visa. If you also want to DIY, you can check out Euler's guide in the comment area.
Barcelona is a small city with excellent bus and metro facilities. The essential software for traveling is Google Maps, which combines the functions of Baidu Maps and Dianping. You can accurately check bus and subway information. 1. Bus and subway : A single subway ride costs 2.55 euros (approximately RMB 20). For 20 euros (approximately RMB 150), you can buy an unlimited monthly pass. If you are under 30 years old, you can still apply for a 7-year card. Buses run at long intervals and need to be planned in advance. 2. Taxi : You can use Uber Boat or call a taxi directly. You can swipe your taxi card. The general cost of taking a taxi in the city is 10-10 Euros (approximately RMB 80-100).
Ola's diet is 50% homemade and 50% eaten outside. 1. Cook by yourself : Often go to the local supermarket chain MACDONA to buy groceries, simply cook, just cook the ingredients and seasonings together. 2. Eat out : There are many tapas bars in Spain with a warm atmosphere. Specialties include Spanish paella, potato omelette, empanada (the original npanada is incorrect), etc. The per-person price of the restaurant is 19-20 euros (about 100 yuan), which is very cost-effective compared to other European countries.
Barcelona is full of activities, with parties, markets, music festivals or traditional festivals happening every day. Activity information can be viewed through Guess and ra Guide (resident consultant), two software commonly used in Europe. 1. Regular events : During the film week in early November, movie tickets are reduced from 19 euros to 3 euros. There are Christmas markets, light shows, etc. at Christmas. During the summer, various districts hold events and even close roads for parties. 2. Tech parties : If you like tech parties, Barcelona has plenty of options. Tickets are 10-20 euros, beer is about 5 euros, and cocktails are 10-10 euros. Wine is very cheap, a bottle in the supermarket is only 34 euros. 3. LGBT Friendly : Barcelona is very friendly to the LGBT community and you may meet girls in clubs and strike up conversations.
There are many gyms in Barcelona, which are chain-like and have complete facilities, including weight lifting, group classes, swimming, saunas, etc. The monthly fee is 30-40 euros (approximately more than 300 yuan), and a registration fee of 20 euros is required for first-time registration. If you want to experience a different gym, you can choose a class pass, which is similar to a general fitness card and can be used for yoga, dance, massage, manicure, etc. You can also pay monthly and cancel at any time.
Taking Euler as an example, the cost of shared housing plus water and electricity is about 600 euros, a monthly bus card is 20 euros, an occasional taxi budget is 40 euros, a 50G data phone card is 10 euros, monthly catering expenses are about 600 euros, and occasional dinners and drinks are 200 euros per month. As soon as you play, you can add tickets to buy wine for 160 euros per month, a cup of coffee every day for 100 euros per month, fitness for 50 euros, participation in events, markets, etc. for 50 euros, and other miscellaneous items for 100 euros. The total is about 1,930 euros, or about 15,000 yuan, which is consistent with the cost of living in Bali. Similar.
Euler believed that choosing where to live was more than just geographical arbitrage or quality of life. Experiencing urban life in different countries and meeting local people is the meaning of travel. At the same time, Euler also designed a guide for digital nomads to share 4 years of trap experience and tips. It also features a community to answer questions related to living and working as a digital nomad. Looking forward to meeting more friends and exploring the world on the road.
