Confused about dryer sheets
Hello everyone,
My name is Gerard and I am a happily retired mechanic from Fort Collins, CO. My wife and I are currently planning a 2 months trip in Europe from September to November (if our dear COVID wants it...)
We have looked at the typical cities: Paris, Madrid, Rome, Berlin, Barcelona, Athens, etc.
Regarding Barcelona, I have heard a lot of good things about this city. I guess it is way more different than here! I have found some beautiful online resources [MOD EDIT] but I am still not able to figure out what the best neighborhood for old people like us would be.
The Raval and the Gothic neighborhoods seem very beautiful but a bit too noisy and dirty. I have seen that the Eixample is classy and close to the center. However, I am also a bit afraid that hotels could be more expensive there...
Have some of you been to Barcelona? Where did you stay? Are there some places where we must go?
Also, don't hesitate if you have some other European cities to recommend
Thank you everyone in advance and have a wonderful day,
Gerard Manson
