Hello!.
I just read your email. It’s big news that you will move to Barcelona for some a few years. It could be a good experience for you and a great opportunity to improve in your job. It’ll allow us to see each other more often as well.
Let me give you some tips from Catalonia.
Firstly you must know that they speak their own language: the Catalan. Two of their most important festivities are the rose and book festival in on Sant Jordi’s day on April 23th and La Diada on September 11th. They have a wide variety of typical dishes: “pà amb tomàquet” bread with tomatoes and “botifarra amb mongetes” sausage with beans are well known.
Barcelona is an incredible city which offers you a lot of activities. You can visit interesting places and monuments and of course you can’t miss Gaudi’s architecture.
Furthermore you can choice choose between a wide cultural offering like: museums, theatre, opera, music festivals… or if you prefer night life you could found find parties every day of the week.
I consider that “barrio de Gràcia” is a wonderful square to live in. You can start to look for (or start looking for) an apartment in this zone. It’s near your enterprise company and has a good transport network. It’s pretty quiet but at the same time you have little bars and restaurants with international food.
I’ll be glad to help you in with anything you need, don’t hesitate to contact me.

Very well written Mariola! My corrections are in red and my suggestions to sound more natural are in blue/grey.
