Default Possibly moving to Spain, Barcelona area???

Hi everyone

I am currently living in Italy and could possibly be moving to Spain to a new office my company is opening in Mollet de Valles.

I was wondering if anyone had any advice on a good place to live around there. It will be just me and although I can drive I would be hoping to not have to buy a car so require good public transport. Of course this may not be possible depending on where the office is.

Does anyone have any suggestions? Would it be possible to live in Barcelona and commute to Mollet every day? Also does anyone know any good websites where I can look at flats for rent?

Cheers
Tommy

I cant tell you too much, although I have visited Barcelona and loved it.

In the old Olympic village near the front there are some fairly nice apartments, although I expect they are not cheap, and are of course relatively new. It's fairly close to the centre

We were also in Badalona (just north) for a few days and parts of that were very pleasant. Theres a pedestrian area in the centre with lots of shops and bars. Its a short train ride to Barcelona City, so quite handy for commuting.

Like any big city Barcelona has good transport links to the surrounding areas so choices are a plenty.
