Barcelona price? Help!?

Question

Hi there -

My friend and I are considering going to Barcelona with EF Language schools - I have 2 questions.

1) For 3 weeks, how much money would one want to have for (a) food? (b) outings?

My friend really would like to go, but is concerned with the money. She has never been anywhere and I would really like to go with her. How do I motivate her without forcing her?

Any arguments for travelling when like this when you're young, and spending the money?

Thank you so much, your help is really needed and appreciated! :)

There's no better way to learn Spanish, unless it's for six weeks!

Hmmm.  If you have to pay your own way for three weeks of food, you need to figure about maybe $30 - 40/day for food.  Entertainment is going to be up to you, but if you figure a museum every, what? three days or so, at $10.00 (the most you'll probably pay) figure 70 or so for museums, and another However much you think you'll spend out at night...$30.00? how many times do you expect to madrugar (stay out past dawn)?  three, four, five?   $1000 should cover everything but clubbing.  I have no idea how much that would run you.  You might want to push that up a bit.  

But, it's just going to be so much FUN!  And she'll come back so much more confident for class!
