Wine Tastings and Classes Salut Wine Studio is a tasting room and an educational space that hosts tastings, private events, workshops, and classes about wine. Salut offers several different wine tastings that introduce clients to local wines and cavas. Clients can choose from Spanish, Catalan or sparkling wine tastings, or join one of the monthly themed tastings, such as natural wines, single varietal wines, and international wines, among others. In addition to a regular schedule of wine tastings, Salut hosts private events and winery tours for groups, including corporate cocktail hours, team building events, and 5-week and weekend wine courses about Spanish and French wines. Those looking for a more informal experience can attend one of the weekly afterworks or vermut Sundays. All wines are available for purchase. Events are hosted by Melissa Leighty, a WSET level 3 certified wine expert with extensive knowledge about Catalan wines. Check out some other local wine bars and bodegas.   About Meagan BellovinMeagan arrived in Barcelona in 2019, having left behind a full life of family, friends, and career in Austin, Texas.

Hair Expression at Royal Oak Your hair is a reflection of your creative spirit. Whatever your jam is, your hair should be able to reflect it. Hair is not an afterthought, but rather as important an expression of your personality as what you wear, or what music you listen to; but that doesn’t mean it should be a pain to maintain. Giving you easy-to-maintain hair that fully expresses your creativity and sense of style is at the core of Royal Oak’s philosophy and service. They strive to give clients what will work best for their unique hair and style – and something that is also totally achievable at home between salon sessions.     About Meagan BellovinMeagan arrived in Barcelona in 2019, having left behind a full life of family, friends, and career in Austin, Texas.
