Hola! ¿Qué tal? A batch of Tuesday news 👀
Cusi-News: Tourists are being warned about jellyfish. Because of the weather, huge numbers of phyzales (jellyfish that live in tropical and subtropical waters) have been thrown ashore. Some beaches have raised red flags, with only 12 people getting a bite on La Cière Beach. The bite is not fatal, but painful.
The authorities are preparing a law that will protect bars and small companies located in villages. In 17% of municipalities, hospitality is underdeveloped, the bar and store around the corner may be the only place to meet and entertain locals. Under the new law, bars, restaurants and small businesses in villages will receive subsidies and support to help them stay afloat.
The authorities have also launched a new campaign against speeding. It is the most common traffic rule violation in Spain, so there will be more officers on the most problematic stretches until April 23. The violation carries a fine of 100 to 600€, and in some cases the loss of 2 to 6 points of the driver's license.

Can a foreigner get married in Spain? ❤️
Two subscribers in love asked us. Let's understand the question.
Briefly:
• Yes, a foreigner can get married in Spain. However, there are certain requirements and procedures that must be followed.
• Both parties must be at least 18 years old.
• At least one of the parties must be a legal resident of Spain for at least 2 years before the date of marriage. But if the couple is not resident in Spain, it is still possible to get married.
• One must get special permission from the authorities or apply through the Catholic Church.
The process of applying for marriage:
1. First, the couple must first obtain a certificate of no impediment to marriage (also known as a certificate of no marriage or certificate of civil status) from the embassy or consulate of their country. The certificate must be translated and certified.
2. With the documents in hand, the couple must go to the Spanish Civil Registry Office (Registro Civil) and submit an application to get married.
3. Then you have to wait 15 days and you can go get married. The ceremony must be performed by a Spanish judge, priest or government official and two witnesses must be present.
For extra reassurance, you can consult a lawyer. He will help make sure that the marriage is legally recognized and will tell you about the different requirements for marriages in the different autonomies.
Bonus option: getting married in Gibraltar. Citizens of any country can marry here, regardless of nationality or residency.
💍 If you got married or married in Spain or Gibraltar, congratulations! Share your experience in the comments.

Wednesday News ⚡️
Residents of Barcelona complain about digital nomads. Because of their influx, it has become more expensive to rent an apartment and drink beer in the bar, which cost 6€. Renting a room in the Poblenou area will cost 1400€, even people who grew up here have to look for cheaper housing.
The Spanish government will turn Sareb Bank's toxic assets in the form of apartments bought during the economic bubble into affordable housing. That's 21,000 empty homes, 14,000 occupied homes that will receive government support. Also, 15,000 homes will be built from the ground up.
The government is also going to raise the «ceiling» on rents. It wants to pass a law limiting next year's rent increase to 3%. Now the limit is 2%. Large landlords — individuals or firms that own five or more houses - will also not be able to raise rents.

Here in this post we talked about parks where you can walk your dog. But we forgot all about ourselves 🥺
Correction. Barcelona's four best oases of tranquility.
📍Ciutadella Park
A park in the northeastern part of the Old Town, created in the late 1800s. It has a zoo, lake, walking paths and museums.
📍Park Güell
A park with a Gaudi museum and panoramic views, an architectural ensemble of buildings, stairs and sculptures. You can bring your dogs here. Admission is paid!
📍Parc del Laberint d'Horta
Neoclassical park: a labyrinth of cypresses, a pavilion with a terrace, water structures and picnic areas. It will appeal to romantics and lovers of long walks. Admission costs a couple of euros, and on Sundays and Wednesdays admission is free.
📍Parc de Cervantes
A tranquil park with a rose garden, grassy spaces, mountain views and a children's playground. It's especially nice here in spring, with rose bushes blooming all around and smelling delicious.

In June in Barcelona there will be total cultural chaos. Grec is coming to the city 👀
Grec is a big cultural summer festival where French tightrope walker Nathan Paulin will cross the Paseo de Gracia on a steel cable. No, it's not a clickbait.
All in all, from June 29 to July 30, the festival will feature many, many things: 88 different shows, 32 performances, 15 concerts, lots of dancing, performances and circus. Renowned choreographers and screenwriters have been involved in creating all this fun.

Message for Murcia residents: you will be very hot next week. Temperatures will be above 35 degrees, with the hottest Thursday.
Residents of Spain go to Portugal to buy cheaper food. Prices are lower there because of zero VAT, with the cost of some products dropping by 6-19%. The tax cut itself will be in effect until the end of October.
A record number of striped dolphins playing with the waves were spotted off the coast of Barcelona. And Mar a la Vista, a company that organizes sailing trips, also saw whales.

Spain has a new law on universities. This post is for prospective and current students, teachers, and those who are now looking at ways to emigrate 🧑🎓
And studying is on the list of options. The law came into force on April 12 and it is quite extensive. Let's tell you what's changed and what you need to know.
The law will allow universities to continue their educational endeavors. Part of the changes are about internal operations, which we're not as interested in. About it briefly:
• The way faculty are evaluated has changed. They will be evaluated based on qualitative and quantitative data, available publications and their impact, linguistic diversity and professional experience.
• The Erasmus exchange program has included Catalan, Basque and Galician.
• Private colleges that practice gender segregation will not be able to be assigned to a public university.
• The number of temporary contracts will be reduced from 40% to 8%. They are the main reason many faculty members feel unstable.
• Spanish universities can create «centers» or campuses abroad, where teaching counts in Spain as well.
The government wants the law to encourage people to learn new things all their lives, to help adults be in demand in the labor market. They plan to achieve this by making universities more accessible.
💶 Something about tuition fees:
• The government previously set maximum tuition at public universities and eliminated tuition disparities across the country. The new law has fixed that. Tuition can now only be reduced or maintained, but not increased.
👀 Are there any students among you?

Saturday recommendation for those who are going to walk around town today and then at some point snack on something unhealthy and tasty 🍔
Yes, there are plenty of those. At Rooq Chicken, you can go for unhealthy and satisfying calories in the form of chicken wings, burgers and caesars. It's tasty, classy and atmospheric.

Where to look for vintage?
We wrote here about Els Encants and recently we discovered another market. It's Sant Antoni Sunday Market and it's a book market that opened in the middle of the last century. Every weekend, more than 300 vendors come here to exhibit their books and thousands of book lovers gather to look for something interesting. It's not just books, but also posters, stamps, magazines and other necessities. And in the nearby Sant Antoni Market you can buy fresh produce and eat tapas.
Address: Carrer del Comte d'Urgell, 1.
Working hours: Sunday 8:00 to 15:00
Take the example of the señorita in the picture who was already in 1955 picking out books for her library. Author: Ramon Masats.

How Spain’s new housing law will affect those who rent here ⚡️
The law was approved in mid-April and will primarily affect renters.
Among the changes:
— A rent cap that applies even to existing leases;
— specifying the «stressed» areas where prices have risen the most;
— Realtor fees are now paid by the landlord.
Hundreds of amendments have been made to the law and it is already controversial. Let’s find out how it will affect tenants.
🖍 Limiting rent increases. The government extended the 2 percent increase ceiling to 2023, 3 percent will be in 2024.
🖍 New contracts. The cap on rent increases does not apply to any new contracts or those entered into after 2019. By the way, any increases must be communicated to the tenant in a «reliable manner, by fax or email» one month in advance of the increase.
🖍 The best part of the law. It shifts the responsibility of paying fees to the agent to the owners, not the tenants.
Prohibits charging more than what is stated in the advertisement or in the contract. For example, forcing tenants to pay utility costs or municipal fees «la comunidad».
🖍 «Stressed» neighborhoods. The law combats skyrocketing rents in high-demand neighborhoods. Local governments can now declare neighborhoods «stressed» and correct price imbalances. For example, freeze them or cap rental prices.
A neighborhood is «stressed» if:
— the cost of housing in the neighborhood exceeds 30 percent of the average net household income in the neighborhood.
— The purchase or rental price has risen at least 3 points above the CPI (Consumer Price Index) for 5 years.
What are the negative consequences?
Despite the perception that the law is made for renters, experts warn that it could lead to higher prices and hurt renters. Owners will be forced to raise rents, decide to sell properties or break contracts to enter into new ones.
Is it a good law or will it only make things worse and more expensive?

Hola!
Car traffic in the center of Barcelona has been reduced by 17% in the last 5 years. All thanks to «green zones» restricting traffic and replacing some traffic lanes with bike lanes. At the same time, pollution levels continue to exceed limits.
Renting an apartment in Barcelona costs as much as renting two apartments in 40 provincial capitals. We must say that the authors of the calculation took the average price of 1,696€ for an 80 sq.m. apartment in Barcelona. How true does that sound to you?
News for electricians: a court in Spain has ruled that it was illegal to fire an electrician for drinking beer at work. The employer claimed that he drank more than 3 liters of beer in a day. The hearing failed to prove that the alcohol made the employee «drunk or intoxicated» to such an extent that he was unable to perform his duties. The company was ordered to return the fired man to work and pay compensation of 47,000 euros.

The weather is coming so hot that authorities are thinking about opening public swimming pools earlier and changing school schedules. Meteorologists warn of a high risk of wildfires.
Renting accommodation will become safer: in Barcelona they want to ban unlicensed advertising of tourist apartments. Platforms for renting such accommodation (e.g. Airbnb) will be obliged to provide high quality data and will be subject to more thorough inspection. Already 2 million euros are allocated for such control.
