@@NomadBudget In my experience, it can be very crowded during events whatever summer or winter, much like in the video. On a normal summer weekend evening it can still be quite crowded, especially on the main streets, but not so much that you can't move around freely or keep your distance from other people, during the winter much less people of course. All this doesn't change the fact that property and rent prices have skyrocketed, which is a big impact on locals, that's unfortunately true.

Sorry but this seems like a very smalltown American perspective. I kept waiting for the insight but literally all of the reasons you mention were exactly the same 20 years ago when I went there the first time. The only thing that has changed is that 1 of the 8 reasons you mention, over tourism, has gotten much worse, and with that the city has lost its soul. None of the other things the video talks about have any relevance for why people don't like it ANYMORE because they were exactly the same 20 years ago when everyone loved it.

@@NomadBudget disagree, it has affected prices but not the other "issues" you mention, some of which aren't even really issues... the heat?? Just don't go anywhere in southern Europe in July period, that's just not a thing anyone does unless they love hot weather, and really not even worth mentioning because it's such common knowledge. Getting around by car in narrow streets? Welcome to Europe, where the most beautiful cities are many centuries old and therefore not car friendly, but where we also have great public transport so you don't need them to be. (and tbh Spanish cities are some of the most car-friendly in Europe outside of their old historic centers)

@BigSana25Ай бұрын
Balanced analysis, but please, don't come. We are overcrowded and mass tourism is destroying the city, its safety, its environment, its very social fabric, impoverishing the population and making the housing situation unsustainable. No more room to build and vulture companies buy whole apartment blocks to turn them into airbnbs, locals being kicked out by gentrification and skyrocketing rents that only the so-called expats and "digital nomads" can pay.... WE DON'T WANT MORE CRUISER SHIPS, NOR CHEAP FLIGHTS, NOR REMOTE WORKERS PAYING TAXES ELSEWHERE. We don't live off tourism, tourism lives from US. Jobs generated by it are often precarious and low paying. The poorest city in Catalonia id also a mass tourism hub (Lloret de Mar). We live in the indutrial heartland of Spain and we have enough economic potential to halve our tourism intake. We're not only a bar space for tourists to consume drinks disregarding the people here, their livelihoods and the places they've loved all their lifes, which are now touristy hellholes, like Park Güell or the harbour. People in Barcelona are just fed up, and this happens also in many other places on Spain. And, if you do come: be respectful, consume locally, be mindful of the noise you make, and get out of the city to visit the Catalan lands, which are much more than our capital. If you're a remote worker reading this: piss off.

@@NomadBudget I didn't mean to sound rude at all, I respect you and I understand tourists pick the offers they get, and most are not to blame. Even though some groups exhibit harmful behaviour, most just want to travel, explore and enjoy themselves. But the free market and unrestrictive propierty and commercial policies are just catastrophic in so many ways. My comment was just written from desperation, like many other people feel. The tourism model needs to change, and the debate is on the public agenda, people mindsets are changing here and in other tourist hotspots. It certainly changed the way I travel, when I do. I'm just afraid there's too much money and economic interests at stake for change to happen.
