1. My town: Badalona

Badalona is open to the sea and enclosed by mountains, separated from her older sister (Barcelona) by the river Besòs and surrounded by other similar municipalities.

I was born in Barcelona, but I live in Badalona which is known to everyone by Serrat song " Que bonita es Badalona " and it’s the third most-populated city of Catalonia. It is located in the comarca of the Barcelonès, suburb of Barcelona and part of its metropolitan area.

For some time the chimneys of factories have shut down and many industries have became museums, such as the iconic “Anis del Mono”. In addition, nowadays, Badalona it is home of the basketball team from this town, Joventut de Badalona, also known as la Penya.

In Badalona you can enjoy a Mediterranean climate and taste the typical Spanish food which it has a strong culinary reputation.
