To discover
Valencia is among the best cities in the world to live in, according to the Forbes and Times rankings, thanks to the balance between professional life, quality of urban life and the cost of local living. Furthermore, Valencia is a small, affordable city, but offers all the comforts and benefits of a big city. It benefits from 300 days of sunshine per year and a perfect combination of beach and mountains. The ancient bed of the Turia river is the breathing space of the city; a large park that stretches across the city where you can walk, play sports or enjoy an incredible natural environment in the heart of the city.
Barcelona is an ideal city to live and study. Thanks to its privileged location, surrounded by unique architecture and landscapes combining beach and mountains, the capital of Catalonia offers a pleasant living environment also due to its cosmopolitan atmosphere.
Barcelona also stands out for its Mediterranean atmosphere and lively streets. The entertainment possibilities are endless. You can stroll along Las Ramblas, stroll through a traditional market like La Boquería, or stop off at one of its urban beaches or one of the many terraces in the historic center.
Good to know
One of the best things about Valencia is its low cost of living. You can easily find an apartment in the city center for €500 or €600 and a shared room for much less! Food, shopping and going out are much more affordable than in other European cities, making Valencia an ideal city to spend a semester.
The administrative and economic capital of Catalonia, Barcelona has Catalan as its official language. A mixture of Spanish, French and Italian, Catalan can be difficult to understand due to the often swallowed syllables. A language heavily repressed in the past, Catalan is today a language recognized by the government of Catalonia. The teaching of Catalan is also compulsory in Barcelona schools. Nearly 95% of Barcelona residents understand Catalan and 70% speak it. However, Castilian is the second official language of Catalonia.
