The last sunday my boyfriend and me went to see one more time the apartment that we liked more between all the options we saw. We talked with the landlady about the conditions and we agree to start living in early April. The landlady told us that she will confirm everything during monday or tuesday and we went back home sure we already have our new flat. Four ours later the landlady contact us to say that finally she prefered a short time contract. Why it seemed that everything was perfect between her and us?

Spain has several authonomus communities but only two of them have problems with the central government in Madrid. They are Basque country and Catalonia. They have a different language that is mandatory to learn in the school and for apply to a public job. There are a lot of bascs and catalans who want to be independence. In Catalonia, a lot of politics and the people think that because we generated more money we have to give much more money to the central government than others communities. People think this is not fair (justice?), we give more and we have less facilities from the governtment.
On the other hand, Catolonia is not good apreciated in the rest of Spain because this reasons. There are a lot of people who don’t feel like a Spanish but is not the majority

Spain has several autonomous communities but only two of them have problems with the central government in Madrid. They are Basque Country and Catalonia. They each have a different language that is mandatory to learn in school and to apply for a public job. There are a lot Basques and Catalans who want to be independent.

In Catalonia, a lot of politicians and people think that because they generate more money they must give much more money to the central government than other communities. Catalans think this is not fair or just that they give more yet/however they have less facilities from the government.
On the other hand, Spanish people do not recognize Catalans as Spanish citizens for these reasons. In Catalonia there are a lot of people who don’t feel Spanish but they are not the majority.

I was born in Catolonia but I  personally don’t feel this way because my parents are from Mexico City.
