El Barri Gòtic

My name is Marta Rubio and I was born and raised in Barcelona. I spent my entire childhood in the Horta neighborhood, on the outskirts of Barcelona. A wonderfully quiet area outside the busy city center, filled with greenery and a family-friendly atmosphere. When I moved to the Netherlands, the Dutch always asked me for my tips for their city trip to Barcelona. This eventually led to the creation of this website. It's with great pleasure and pride that I introduce you to my city.

Barcelona with Marta is a travel site about Barcelona, created by a born and raised Barcelonian. Here you will find all my Barcelona tips for a unique and successful trip to Barcelona, but also if you want to settle in Barcelona and thoroughly enjoy all the beautiful things the city has to offer. Because a city like Barcelona is only truly known when you dare to venture off the beaten path and follow the tips of a real local!
