Well said, Sosia.
After reading it , I remembered the CNN advert about tourism in Spain, which they end by saying " SMILE, YOU´RE IN SPAIN!"

I await your story.

Crotalito, Spain is a very varied country, full of contrasts. Both human and geographical.
We have beautiful mountainous areas and lovely beaches. There is even a desert in the south. The north is my favourite part, it is quite green and reminds me of my beloved England.
I live in Madrid, which is a big city and I guess very similar to all the modern cities of the western world. In the past few years Madrid has changed a lot due to immigration, which in my opinion has made it a lot more interesting.
It is a vibrant city, full of bars, museums, theatres and cinemas. We also have all kinds of shops, parks... I'm sure you have heard of Prado Museum and Retiro Park.

i'm not a great writer. But Gemma is here!!
It's like the USA but more compact, a lot of differents places but all worth them.
Great monuments (Alhambra, Mezquita, Sagrada Familia, El Prado) and parties (Sanfermines, Fallas, Carnavales, EL Pilar, La tomatina...)
We are a powerful tourism place, so we must have something!!
