Barcelona is a perfect place to dream of, just as San Francisco (my 2 fav. cities on the planet).
The weather is nice, though it's less windy. The beach is fully usable. The main difference is you never ask yourself "is this legal?" when you want to do something well.. let's say unusual but harmless. You want to drink wine at the beach? Go on. People grow weed like this:
Don't worry about Catalan, everybody speaks Castellano (aka Spanish) there.
As an English speaker you'll pick up Spanish quickly.
There are some problems - the unemployment is high, salaries rather low and the reason people live with parents until their thirties is that housing is so damn expensive.
I wonder if you could be hired as a foreign one-person company. I know people used to work in the UK this way and they do in Poland now.
