After almost one year living in Poble Nou I truly believe I am allowed to analyze this RCN district and explain here all its pros and cons. Oops sorry, poble nou is the old fashioned name, now it is being called 22@ by hipsters and community managers.
22@ is located next to the bitch beach, in the northern part of da city. Since it is not really close to the center, it is still keeping its old identity with ancient stores, catalan children, and barça supporters. Nevertheless, gentrification has been lately kicking in, and all of this cute cosy atmosphere is mixing with 5 stars russian hotels and Dubai-shaped skyscrappers. Hey, for the record, I'm not saying any of this is bad. At all.

Interesting things to do in 22@: mmmm well, there is the cheapest gas station in da city. You can also drink really good orchata. If you like horchata, of course... And, yeah, there is this martial arts academy I go to, so I can release the unbearable tension of living in 22@. Did I mention the beach?
Summing up, 22@ is a really nice place to live and work, but if you wanna have fun... Stay away! Run! RUN FOR YOUR LIFE!
