Barcelona's a great city, I recommend the Picasso museum, and a walk from the top of la Ramblas (the main shopping street) to the seafront at the bottom. Also the Dali museum if Figueras about 100km north would be a good daytrip.

All the food is relatively safe but only drink bottled water.

As for customs, just mind your manners as usual. Nothing outstanding I can think of that might offend the Spanish. Remember, however, that Barcelona is part of Catalunya, and some Catalonians are fiercely independent and resent being ruled by Spain...

And if anyone asks you hate Real Madrid.
