Getting Connected
Beside the communities you can create in your coworking and coliving spaces, there are many online nomad groups on Facebook, Meetup, and WhatsApp. You can even get in touch before you come to Barcelona to start meeting people – and even find an apartment.
There’s a popular nomad meetup that has happened every Wednesday since 2020, and they also have a Facebook and WhatsApp group. A quick Facebook search for groups with the terms Barcelona + digital nomad will get you some solid ones, and you can also look for expat groups like this one and groups specifically for women, like Girls Gone International Barcelona. With your group of nomads, a great way to get to know each other and the city is taking tours. Look at our perfectly crafted small group tours created to highlight the best Barcelona has to offer.
