I have been in many Spanish cities like Barcelona, Madrid, Valencia, Zaragosa, Taragona, Leeida and many small towns and villages. I staied in Spain 4 months. I like Spain so much due to the relax feeling I had while being there, due to how Spanish people approach life... long (2-4 hrs) siestas, pleasantly warm climat, interesting architecture, positive people, but most of all - cool and relax way of life, they don't run like crazy to earn additional cent. Spanish people just like to enjoy life. For an example, it's very typical to Spain when You walk along the street at summer time in Spain, You might see signboard at some small shop or workshop "Closed for vacations for one month", yes, for ONE month they just close it up and go for holidays! Have You been in Spain? What do You like most of this great country?

Spain is very interesting with a great culture and tradition. I have not been to Spain but I think it would be very educational to go there and see the historical places like the place where El Cid fought. I would like to hear Spanish music which is very passionate and emotional.
