In House Hunters International season 31 episode 105, viewers are taken on a journey to Barcelona, Spain, where a couple from Edinburgh, Scotland, are searching for their dream home. Jonny and Amber have lived in Edinburgh all their lives, but after a year-long break in Barcelona, they fell in love with the city and decided to make the move overseas.

The episode begins with Jonny and Amber discussing their needs and wants for their new home. They have a budget of €400,000 and are looking for a two-bedroom apartment in the city center with outdoor space, ideally a rooftop terrace. They also want to be close to public transportation as they plan to work in different parts of the city.

Their first viewing is a small and cozy apartment in Gracia, a trendy neighborhood known for its bohemian vibes and narrow streets. The apartment is bright with large windows and has a small but impressive balcony. However, the lack of outdoor space disappoints the couple. Next, they explore a newly renovated penthouse in La Barceloneta, a seaside neighborhood known for its beach and tourist attractions. The apartment has a large rooftop terrace with stunning views and is perfectly located for Amber's job. However, Jonny is worried about noise pollution from the busy streets and tourist attractions.

Throughout the episode, viewers see Jonny and Amber debating over their top priorities and finding a balance between location, outdoor space, and interior design. They explore different neighborhoods, including the Gothic Quarter, where they visit a large and modern apartment with a communal rooftop pool and terrace. Although the apartment exceeds their budget, they are tempted by the luxurious amenities and breathtaking views.

The couple also visits a charming and rustic apartment in El Raval, a bohemian neighborhood known for its street art and multicultural atmosphere. Although the apartment has a balcony and outdoor space, it is in need of renovation and has a complicated layout that may not be suitable for their needs.

As they explore different options, Jonny and Amber also meet with a local real estate agent, who provides insight into the competitive Barcelona housing market. They learn about the city's complex zoning laws, which makes finding an apartment with a rooftop terrace or outdoor space a challenge. They also discuss the pros and cons of buying a newly renovated apartment versus an older one that requires renovation.

In the end, Jonny and Amber must make a decision that balances their priorities and fits their budget. It's a difficult decision, but viewers will have to watch the episode to find out which apartment they choose.

Catalan Clash In Barcelona is a captivating episode that gives viewers a glimpse into the challenges of finding a home in a popular destination city. With beautiful apartments, stunning views, and a bit of drama, this episode is sure to entertain and inspire viewers who are considering a move abroad.
