The bookstore La Fosforera, which defines itself as "a small literary garden" and began its activity in Arenys de Mar in 2022, has opened its doors to the "Volunteering for Language" (VxL) program. The establishment, known for its wide selection of books for all ages and topics, as well as its cultural activities, now offers its space for language pairs to meet.
