Next year (in its first half) a gastronomic market from Time Out will open in Barcelona 🌮
The food and cultural market will gather under one roof all the best that the Catalan capital is known for. It is based on a simple idea: the editors and experts of Time Out choose the best food, drinks and cultural events that the city offers, and then gather them together and make them available to everyone. By the way, you can go to such a market in Lisbon.
The location has been chosen as the observation deck of the Maremagnum shopping center. There will be 14 different cuisines, 1 full restaurant, 2 bars inside and 2 outside overlooking the city.

• You need a written proof that you have been working remotely for one year.
• It is possible to apply for a visa from inside the country, the main thing is to be in the country legally. Even with a tourist visa.

Good morning Spanish! Got some news for today 🔖
Travelling by train across the EU will become faster and cheaper thanks to new green transport rules. This will be helped not only by funding, but also by better coordination, regulation and promotion of rail services. In the future, trains are planned to connect Germany, Denmark and Sweden, to launch a night train from Paris to Venice and from Amsterdam to Barcelona.
Do you blame yourself for sometimes buying clothes that don't fit? It happens; there's a story of unwise spending on a larger scale. Two Spanish tourism bosses spent 258 million euros on trains that turned out to be too big for the tunnels. Before they realized their «embarrassing blunder» they had managed to order dozens of new trains.Better yet, they should have bought jeans one size smaller.

Today all news are about transport. So happy transportation news day ⚡️
🚲 «Bicycles... What do you think about it?» — Spanish companies ask employees. All because of the initiative «En bici al trabajo» («To work by bicycle»), which encourages the use of a bicycle instead of a car. The initiative is already working in several European countries, and additional payments are being considered for companies whose employees ride bicycles. A French employee can earn up to 800 euros a year this way.
🚗 Car sales in Spain are up 51%. The country leads Europe in car sales. In January alone, 760,041 new cars were bought in the EU.
🚞 Railway operator Renfe is celebrating the anniversary of the route Madrid > Barcelona with an unusual sale. Fifteen years of operation and 15 euros per ticket. The sale will last until February 25, with tickets valid for travel from March 15.

The Lonely Planet editors were asked, «which route to take in Spain so you can see the best of it?» 🚀
There are two such routes. Today we will tell you about one of them. The first route: for a calm northern trip.
🌳 The green north coast is not the most popular destination so it’s not crowded and has great beaches.
Plan:
> Start with a couple of days in elegant Oviedo, the capital of Asturias. There are Doromanian churches, markets, an art museum, and delicious food.
Eat at Tierra Astur. It has inexpensive lunches and award-winning cider.
And Gloria was opened by Michelin-starred brothers.
> After Oviedo, hop on the train to Arriondas (on the picture). 90 minutes and you’re in a town at the foot of the mountains. And then to the beach, take the train to Ribadesella, the pearl of the Asturian coast.
Then go to the fishing town of San Vicente de la Barquera. From here you can go to Santander, where the Centro Botín art gallery designed by Renzo Piano is located.

One bright yellow house in Barcelona catches the eye and stands out sharply from its neighbors 👀
It was designed by the architectural firm Mach. The adjoining buildings helped provide privacy, making the front and rear facades of all three floors glass. On the ground is a heavy plinth, on it is a light metal structure, open to the landscape and the sun, and the yellow color perfectly harmonizes with the greenery and the blue sky.
