Agent Orange wrote: hey Spanish people! I'm going to Spain from April to August! I will work there with an old guy, play some records for him that he can sing on... making some money, having a good time. I will have an apartment there as well. I was wondering how I get started with a social life over there... The language could be a problem, maybe that I'm Dutch and only speak 2 languages. I will be hanging in and around Malgrat de Mar (I've been there before last year and from experiences I know it's nice there). Sooo... some help/advice to get started is veeeeery much appreciated.
Well, that's a touristic city if I'm not wrong, usually everbody should understand english quite well, but if you could learn some basics from spanish or catalan would be better, and people would appreciate it.
To start a social life, I think that depends on how open you are, so just try to be as nice as here, and I'm sure you wont have too much problems to make friends.
Oh, and get used to have lunch at 15:00 and have dinner at 22:00

vicen no olvides la siesta, se tedrá que hechar una siestesita después de comer, jejeje tipical.
Bueno, siguiendo con el hilo, opino igual que vicen, me gusta escribir bien y leer lo que esté bien escrito sin llegar a obsesionarse, aunque no cuesta nada poner lo acentos.
También opino que si uno va a un pais debería esforzarse por aprender su cultura e idioma y no meterse en una burbuja, esto vá por tí Agent Orange.
Así que ya sabes la siesta es obligatoria entre otras cosas y aprender algo de Español tampoco es malo (esto va por The Prodigy también).

Thanks thanks Vicen!
Well, I´ll be living in Malgrat De Mar... That´s quite different from Barcelona.
Very touristic... but I have to concidering I have to make money. I´m quite outgoing, but not a party-dude. Soooo, it depends... social life is always hard, in another country. I guess I'll be fine but I just have some minor doubts... it's for 6 months you know?

I know I go every year to Barcelona, but I live in a touristic village, with lots of tourists from outside coming in summer, so, it's the same as Malgrat de Mar.
Try to make friends with people working at the same place as you

Blah blah blah and blah blah blah. The important thing: the Agent Orange has the best fucking nickname and avatar here, really kicks ass, makes me laugh each time I see it.
Little orange, you're spending 6 months here, so if you go to Madrid, I'll be paying the beers.

Thank you, that is fucking cool of you.
Now imagine I got the best nickname with my old name... I thought it was never possible to make a new one even better. hehe There's a lot of thought put in my new nickname
Anyway, Oranges are also from Spain, but that's just a coincidence... and yeah, I will probably go to madrid for a weekend, maybe around May. I should and will let you know.

Holá! Cómo está la gente aquí? Espero que estén bien.
Hace poco meses volví a estudiar español, mi nivel ya está mejor que la vez pasada.
Ojalá vaya de viaje a Latin America o España un día. No sé cuando.
Hasta luego!
