- 3:35talk
- 3:35first
- 3:36about
- 3:36a
- 3:36little
- 3:36bit

- 3:41a
- 3:41good
- 3:41tourist
- 3:42if
- 3:42you

- 3:44Well,
- 3:44exactly.
- 3:45I

- 3:46have
- 3:46seen
- 3:46the
- 3:47headline
- 3:47saying
- 3:48tourists
- 3:48go
- 3:48home.
- 3:48And
- 3:49I
- 3:49think
- 3:49you
- 3:49might
- 3:49get
- 3:50the
- 3:50impression
- 3:50that
- 3:50Spain
- 3:52doesn't
- 3:52want
- 3:52visitors
- 3:53or
- 3:53that
- 3:53visiting
- 3:54Spain
- 3:54might
- 3:54be
- 3:54a
- 3:54problem.
- 3:55But
- 3:55it's
- 3:55certainly
- 3:56the
- 3:56case
- 3:56that
- 3:57Barcelona
- 3:58probably
- 3:58is
- 3:58the
- 3:59most
- 3:59troubled
- 4:00place
- 4:01where
- 4:02the
- 4:02town
- 4:03or
- 4:03the
- 4:03city
- 4:04sometimes
- 4:05feels
- 4:05overwhelmed
- 4:05by
- 4:06tourism,
- 4:06the
- 4:06impact
- 4:07that
- 4:07has

- 4:08prices,
- 4:08for
- 4:09example,
- 4:09or

- 4:11on
- 4:12food
- 4:12and
- 4:12drink
- 4:12for
- 4:12local
- 4:13people.
- 4:13So
- 4:13it
- 4:14is
- 4:14a
- 4:14real
- 4:14problem,
- 4:14I
- 4:14would
- 4:14say,
- 4:15particularly
