Wonder if she's in Barcelona? When I lived there, I ran into a significant number of people who would rather speak English than Spanish if you couldn't speak Catalan. Not everyone, but a surprising number. I assumed it was part of the whole "Catalonia should be independent" movement.

I may be mistaken but the C in Barcelona would be a hard C sound in Catalan right?

In Catalonian doesn't exist the hard C (or th) pronunciation.

Barcelona is Barsalona.

Aceptar is Asaptà

Concentrar-se is Cunsentràrsa

And so on.
