i lived in barcelona for a year rented a 5 bedroom 4 bathroom airconditioned appartment, furnished with antiques for 1200 euro/ month. in the best part of town, on a hill above the smog. went skiing in andorra every weekend in the winter. only a 3 hour drive. was pretty sweet
Barcelona is now simply unlivable. They have a really serious crime problem with the gipsies and the illegal immigrants. Barcelona changed a lot in the last 5 years. Stop putting crap up. Europe is not a good place to live. Many Americans come visit Europe with high hopes only to be extremely disappointed. Sure there are areas where crime is lower, sure there are areas where the weather is good, sure there are areas where women are pretty. But all these things in 1 place ? That's not Europe, that's a dream you won't find in Europe.
My only experience in Europe is staynig in hotels. Based on that experience, I frequently paid like $250+USD/night for some really crappy rooms. Water stains on walls, molding carpet in corner of room, no AC, etc. It's just a different culture when it comes to what a reasonable accomodation is.
This is funny since America is way more violent than Europe. It is in their nature because they genocided indians. You can see all the shootings happen in USA, not in Europe.
For me and a lot of other european, we dont want to live in USA, because you are all crazy over there, everyone have a gun, everyday someone goes shot. Thats totally insane. OK. for an american its pretty normal. But think about it how it would look for you if you would be grown up somewhere else than the beautiful god blessed world police states. ???? Didnt you see the movie by michael moore about that gun shit in your country. We need the guns, to protect ourselves, wuahahaha we are all so afraid of everyone. -------- I like USA, i like to do spend my holidays there, but i dont want to live there, sorry. Mexico sucks too, to many drug gang assholes. Canada is cool, totally different from the states. The poster before me is right, USA is maybe the most violent country in the world, i mean every day someone gets killed by shooting. thats actually a reason to be afraid. I need that safe feeling, that only the police, military, hunters and maybe some gangster have guns, and not everybody. over and out.
It's absolutely not. Crime numbers are way higher in Europe than in the USA. No shootings in Europe? On what planet have you been living?
Yeah, that's what the left wing press wants you to believe. If you believe Moore's movies then their is something wrong with you. In Europe, the USA only comes in the news when they can show it to Europeans how negative it is over there. Nothing is farther away from the truth. They do that to hide the mistakes all the left wing people have made here in Europe. Open your eyes and see it for yourself.
I am really considering that you could maybe be right !!??? I am just a stupid sheep controled by the mass medias. its not my fault, i am sorry. we are all being permanent manipulated by these $§$%"%" mass medias. fuck them idiots !!! Acutally, always when i was on vacation in the states, i really liked it there, especially budweiser - i love it. And can believe it or not, i have never seen a gangster or someone with a gun, very strange. But when i put on TV, i always see the bad and gun crazy americans. I am sorry, i think you people are not so insane how i first thought. (just kidding) In Europe is violence too - France, UK. the youngstars starts for rebellion, the arabian revolution comes to europe and then maybe to america. ???????????
traderslair pls stop trolling. europe and the US are both pretty safe if you use a little bit of common sense and stay out of the lesser neighbourhoods.
