[Leica] Barcelona

[izb04 at aber.ac.uk (Ilan Zvi Baron)]

Hello, I was advised to put a message here by friends on the Leica forum.

I'm going to be moving to Barcelona shortly and will be there for 3 years. I
don't speak any Spanish or Catalan and could use some friendly advice on
moving there. First, I've got my R9 insured in the UK, but not in Spain and
I was wondering if anybody out there can point me in the direction of a
reasonably priced insurance company I could use. In the UK I've been using
photoguard. Second, are there any photography clubs with dark rooms? I
assume that there are, and the university there might have something, but if
there is anything out there that comes recommended I'd be interested to hear
about it. Those are my Leica related questions. I've been to Barcelona once
before, but only for a few days. I don't know much about living in Barcelona
(such as finding a place to live, etc.). Any advice in this regard or other
thoughts would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks a bunch!
