In Madrid, our home is the historic Colegio Mayor de San Pablo of the Universidad Complutense de Madrid. The Colegio is a striking neoclassical building built shortly after the Spanish Civil War, located in a quiet residential neighborhood surrounded by the University. It is equipped with classrooms, meeting spaces, a small theatre, tennis and basketball courts, and a lovely outdoor pool and patio perfect for organizing student-run activities such as dances, plays, meetings, and coffee houses. In Barcelona, we stay in the Barri G tic Point, a student residence in the heart of the lovely historic center of the city. In a neighborhood of narrow stone streets lined with small restaurants, art galleries, and artisans' shops, the Barri G tic Point is within short walking distance of the Picasso Museum, the cathedral, and the colorful promenade of Las Ramblas.
Breakfast is served in the residence and group dinners are offered in local restaurants and caf s.
Students are free for lunch so they may explore Barcelona's exciting and varied cuisine.
