While walking down the sidewalks of this gorgeous city, you may wonder if you’re slipping inside a dream bathed in warm sunshine or if it actually is reality. If you like talking to and meeting new people, this metropolis is built on spending time outside. Barcelona has a wonderful expat scene, where people are unbelievably friendly and relaxed. Cheap rooms in Barcelona can be found in the more remote suburban areas. Hence, people stick to renting a single room. Renting a whole flat for one person is usually too luxurious as wages in the recent years have been pretty low compared to the rest of European cities. Additionally, Eixample is also very nice and you can go almost anywhere you want by commuting, since everything is in close walking distance. On the other hand, if living near the beach is important to you, you should most definitely try Badalona. They are friendly zones that offer cultural connection, genuine interactions, and overall great nightlife opportunities. Two of the most fantastic areas to live in during your time in Barcelona are surely Borne and Gracia. If you’d like to rent rooms in Barcelona, higher prices can be found near the city center, and lower prices in the suburban zones. They offer great commodities for all inhabitants. Rooms for rent come at an average price of €400 monthly. With up to 13 hours of sun per day on a yearly average, this location is rather dreamy for anyone. It is splendid in the delicious food it offers, the various cuisines, and the unforgettable wine. Moreover, it is one of the most diverse cities in the world, where locals and foreigners live happily mixed. The citizens of Catalonia deem it unnecessary to leave when everything is situated within walking distance or a very quick train ride. The beaches are crystal clear and the mountains have some of the most amazing hiking trails. Can't recall what kind it was, but it looked good and she had no complaints.Barcelona has a great location with access to both the Mediterranean Sea and the Pyrenees Mountains. It had a white goddess dressing with fresh mozzarella, grape tomato, pickled red onion and black salt. Usually the fresh, hearty bread is something I find really necessary (it's never the same when I make it at home with a piece of basic wheat bread), but this version had a griddle english muffin and it was a departure I much enjoyed. I also got a second meal (don't judge me! I brought half of each home) and had to get the avocado toast, which is a go-to of mine for breakfast/lunch/brunch. I got the mail and went for the hash browns - loved how crispy they were. Been a long time since I had them and these were pretty fantastic - you can order them as an appetizer or as the meal with a choice of potatoes. I was so excited to see Scotch Eggs on the menu.

The place is really cute and the dishes are cuter and everything I could possibly love about brunch is on the menu. She post tons of cute throwback tableware that she sells in her vintage booth at area shops and markets and her Instastories are a lot of fun. By the way, her Instagram page is Check it out. She hadn't been there either and we set a date. I reached out to a gal, Nina, that I had only known online but who lives in the area - we had both been following each other on Instagram for a long time, had common friends, had been at some of the same artisan markets, and were in some online groups together - to see if she'd like to meet up for brunch and finally meet in real life. They've had a longtime location in Palos Heights that I have not visited, but have been hearing rave reviews about for many years, so I couldn't wait to try out the new location. One of these new restaurants is the Harvest Room. Just across the Illinois/Indiana border in Munster, a new little strip has been built on Calumet Avenue (not too far from Three Floyds Brewery) that has brought some new dining options to the area.
