Hi Expats, I’m Lucie. Let me translate & handle Barcelona’s bureaucracy for you.
Personal translation & local support for expats — at the bank, doctor, city hall, or on the phone, in English, Spanish and French.
Three languages. One less thing to worry about.
A little help. A big relief.
Moving to a new country is enough of an adventure. Don’t let the language barrier slow you down.
Bureaucracy & paperwork
NIE, residency, empadronamiento… I know the drill.
Doctor & healthcare
Understand your appointment, not just the waiting room.
Phone, internet & bills
On hold for 45 minutes? I’ll take it from here.
Banks & accounts
Open an account. Sort a problem. Speak to a human.
Schools & teachers
Let’s make sure nothing gets lost in translation.
City hall & public offices
The right office, the right papers, a familiar face.
Kind words from lighter to-do lists.
Lucie helped us get our doctor’s appointment sorted. She explained everything, came with us, and even checked in the next day. It felt like having a friend at the clinic.
Three ways to get it done.
By your side
I come with you. A friendly face who speaks the language.
On a three-way call
You, me and the other side. Let’s sort it out together.
Leave it with me
Send me to the office, or I handle it by phone or online.
Some offices require an authorisation letter. I’ll let you know.
From “help!” to handled.
Tell me what you need
Pick a time and give me the short version.
I confirm the plan
I check what’s possible and confirm with you.
Simple payment
Simple, fast, and only after I confirm.
Simple help. Simple prices.
Remote
A three-way call, or I handle it by phone or online.
On-site
I come with you, or go to the office for you.
