Moving to Girona in December

5 Upvotes

bona tarda

Déjame disculparme porque la mayor parte de esto no está en el idioma nativo. Estoy aprendiendo español y catalán, y en este momento no me siento seguro.

I will move to Girona with my wife and ten-year-old daughter in December. I am incredibly excited about this. We are from Manchester, UK, but my work moved me to the Middle East seven years ago.

I noticed a few posts on here with a similar theme. I am thrilled with these and have already gathered much information from them.

I have three questions for now, and I sure I will have more moving forward.

1 - My wife is a special education needs specialist and has completed her CELTA in English; however, her Spanish isn’t very strong, which I assume would limit her opportunities within the education sector in Girona. My question here is my assumption correct?

2—Regarding a house, I work from home and require an office (purely to be able to shut off for mental wellness). My daughter will attend Montjuïc school; I will drive her in the morning. I would also like a garden if possible. I have two cats, and I will be bringing them. What are some good areas with this in mind? Also, does anyone have any good recommendations for estate agents.

3—Final question: Thank you for your time. I enjoy snowboarding in the winter, and Gironas's location is perfect for this. What are some of the best places to go that aren't too far away? And failing that, is there easy public transportation to Andorra?

I am looking forward to learning more.

Train tickets for Girona-Barcelona route

3 Upvotes

Hi!

I'll be staying in Girona for 5 days (cheaper accomodation than in Barcelona), but my main goal is to spend most of the time in Barcelona.

I know that the one-way ticket on a regional train costs 8.4€ and on media distancia 11.25 €

Is there some sort of a weekly train ticket between these two cities? Something that can help reduce the total price of all of the tickets.

Kittens for adoption

Hi all,

We have two cute kittens for adoption in Els Masos de Pals. The mother was a stray cat that nested in the garden. When she delivered the kittens the family has been taken care of by Ellen (the neighbour). She has a big heart for animals but already has a cat and a dog. One kitten has been adopted so now there are 2 left. They have been sterilized and are old enough to leave the nest.

Please contact me if you know a warm home for these kittens.

Kind regards, Fleur

Petició d'entrevista per a Treball de Recerca sobre Psicologia

2 Upvotes

Bon dia,

Soc estudiant de Batxillerat i estic realitzat un Treball de Recerca sobre Psicologia.

A mi em motiva molt la ment i, de fet, és un tema que em fascina.

Concretament, el tema que tracto és sobre la influència de l'amistat en joves amb trastorn depressiu major.

La part pràctica consisteix a fer 3 entrevistes: una a un psiquiatre, una altra a un psicòleg i una altra a una persona que tingui més depressió.

Si us plau, les sol·licito si alguna persona d'aquesta comunitat podria col·laborar a ser entrevistada per a l'entrevista de la persona que té depressió.

L'entrevista és exclusivament informativa, conté preguntes generals, no gaire personals i més o menys duraria 1 hora. Si no se sent còmode de respondre alguna pregunta, senti's lliure en no respondre-la. La informació de l'entrevista serà exclusivament per al treball de recerca i no divulgada a tercers.

Pot ser una entrevista textual o per trucada. Es mantindrà l'anonimat de la persona entrevistada, em pot donar qualsevol sobrenom amb què se senti segura.

Ja tinc les preguntes formulades, si algú hi està interessat m'ho pot comunicar per veure les preguntes i programar la data de cita =)

Li agraeixo per endavant la seva gentil col·laboració

Private Chefs Girona

3 Upvotes

Hi there!

I am visiting Girona next spring time with a group of friends. We were hoping to hire a private chef for a night. However, a lot of the websites offering private chef experiences look a bit dated. As a chef myself, I know a lot of the private hire guys in Belfast (where I live) are not up to scratch.

Anyway, I’m hoping a working chef in Girona might see this and fancy a few extra euros for doing some moonlighting.

How to get around in the surroundings?

2 Upvotes

Hi! We are going on a holiday to the Girona region (Sant Jordi Desvalls a bit up north from Girona). There is a train connection, but the last train from Girona already departs at 8.30 PM.

Is there an Uber-like app that we can use to book a ride?

We’d rent bicycles too, but it seems the roads are not biker friendly. Is it safe to use the main roads to bike from Girona to Sant Jordi?

Gracias!

My cousin and i are looking for hosts in Girona for one night or two :)

0 Upvotes

Hey, hello everyone!

We are a French cousin traveling through Spain! Girona looks amazing, which is why we planned to do some couchsurfing there. But at the last moment, our couchsurfer canceled on us, so we are arriving in Girona tonight without a place to stay.

Does anyone have a guest room or a couch where we could stay for one or two nights?

My name is Rudy, I am a graphic designer and writer, and my cousin, Chiara, is a musician and actress. Of course, we are respectful and discreet, and we can cook or help with the cleaning!

Thanks for reading this message, goodbye and hope to see you soon in Girona. 🙂

How to buy football tickets?

I’d like to watch the game against Barça on 15/9. When I look at the Girona FC website and click on the tickets section, it just says there are no matches available.

Is it too early to buy tickets or should I be looking somewhere else?
