If you can create the opportunity to learn Spanish in Barcelona, seize it! Barcelona is to Spain as Quebec is to Canada. In other words, it is everything you expect of Spain, but with a bonus culture thrown in. Barcelona will give you a strong taste of Spain and a fascinating look at Cataluña and the Catalán language and culture. The Spanish you learn will still be authentic Spanish-Spanish. For the linguist in you, Catalán adds understanding to Spanish, as it offers a different view of the development of Spanish from Latin. When it comes to Spanish courses in Barcelona, I like Solbarcelona.com. It's a professional Study Abroad program that specializes in Barcelona only, offers lodging packages with local families (in addition to dormitory plans), and welcomes entire families.
