About where you live

• Where do you live? What type of building do you live in?
I live in a flat on the higher floor of a four-level building, near Badalona city downtown. This flat has windows to the street, a quite big terrace, and a little balcony. We have only a neighbour on the floor.

• Is this a typical type of building in your city or country?
Yes, almost inside (big) cities. Buildings use to be multilevel, split between two or more flats. A good building is like mine. But others are true high-rises, with eight, nine or ten floors, and three or four neighbours for each floor.

• Do you like living there? Why? Why not?
Oh, yes, I really love where I live. Neighbourhood is quiet and clean, people are kindly and have good manners, the sea isn’t far, Badalona downtown has trade streets… More, you can take easily public transport; train, for example.

• Have you changed anything since you´ve lived there, or are you planning to change anything?
Yes, we have covered a part of the terrace with an aluminium structure. It’s so fine in summer evenings and nights.

Hi everybody:
I live in a flat of a four-level building, that it's a "dúplex"
I like very much my home becouse it's very big, with a terrace and very sunny.
It's in Tortosa's downtown.
For all this reasons I really like my home.

Hi Lluis. I was reading your message and I was sure to read "Barcelona", the I realized the name of your city is Badalona. I don't know where it is. I'm really curious. can you give us some information? thanks

Dear Paolo,

Badalona is a city at the north of Barcelona, very close to it; there is only 9 km between Barcelona and Badalona centres. Although Badalona has 210.000 people, and is the third city of Catalonia, it takes part of Barcelona conurbation, so a lot of people thinks that's the same of Barcelona city itself.

Best wishes,

Lluís
