Hello everyone,

I am a guy from Turkey and working for a British company for a year now. The company has branches all around the world and I chose Barcelona two months ago. Previously I was located in Istanbul. I am still doubtful if I did the right thing as I was very surprised to see that the Spaniards hardly speak English. Until I get a proper language course, it appears that establishing any connections to the Spaniards will be a futile try. I would really like to interact with you guys to share these clumsy experiences and exchange conversations. Hello to you all for now! 😊
