- Do you live where you want to live?
- Yes. I live in the middle of the Eixample, which is very good.
- Would you like to move? Why and where to?
- No, I am fine where I am.
- Do you spend time in your neighbourhood and with your neighbours? Do you have the shops you need nearby (baker's, grocer's, dry cleaner's)?
- Yes, a lot. For some shops, such as the baker's and the dry-cleaner's, it's a bit of a walk, but there is everything here.
- As well as doing your daily shopping (if you do it) do you have places and services for all your needs?
- Yes.
- Do you stroll around your own neighbourhood for pleasure or do you go elsewhere?
- I like walking around. In my neighbourhood and in other places.
- Which are your favourite cinemas, theatres and clubs?
- Both for cinemas and theatres, I look at what film or play is on, regardless of where it is on.
- And which are your favourite restaurants, bars and cafés?
- We have the best in the world, and I like tapas bars just as much as top-class restaurants.
- Is there any public area where you like to go, to sit and chat?
- To have a chat, the person is more important than the place. Normally I meet up with friends in restaurants.
- When you have to act as a guide for visitors, where do you take them?
- The old centre and to see the work of Gaudí.
- What is the most appropriate, funny or surprising adjective you have heard to describe Barcelona? Which one would you use?
- That it is a liveable city. I think it would be more so if we Barceloneans behaved in a more civic-minded manner.
- Of where, between the sea and Tibidabo, do you have the most memories?
- A son of mine lives by the sea, and I have good memories of being there, I like the old centre very much, and my two children went to school near Tibidabo. I have good memories of the city from one side to the other.
- Which is the best place (a park, a café, a seat in the city) to have a romantic date, or to be able to whisper sweet nothings to a loved one?
- Anywhere.
- What colours or smells, when you see or smell them anywhere in the world, remind you immediately of Barcelona?
- The colour blue, for many reasons.
- When you have had to leave the city for a while, what have you missed most?
- I always miss people. I am somebody who doesn't relate much to places.
- Which of the changes that have been made in the city recently are you happiest with?
- The renovation of certain zones in the old Chinese quarter.
- What don't you like, and what would you do to change it?
- I would like cement covered areas to be green. I would put more green areas in those areas which have been renovated.
- Add anything you would like to say, and that we haven't asked
- I repeat that we should make Barcelona a more civic-minded place.
