When I travel I really like to visit museums. I try to visit the most interesting places. I like to take photos of the most beautiful gardens or buildings. I especially liked the beaches of Puerto Rico; the water was incredibly crystalline (crystal clear).

Hot weather without any doubt. I like to enjoy a day of sunshine day. (I enjoy a sunshiny day.)

I like both, especially if the beach is like the ones that you can find in Puerto Rico.

I remember that I tasted a really disgusting dish called “callos”, was made of beef tripes and cow’s nose. The dish was tasty anyway.

It has a wonderful new culture to get to know. The tasty Spanish food, their love of the outdoors, Spanish films, fine wine, fine ham and friendly people.
