Recovering from another session

I grew up in spain and think it is ace...

We moved to the costa del sol when i was 3 (20years ago), and we moved about a bit on the costa del sol, but not far from each prrevious abode.
I went to spanish schools till i went to college in england, and mostly loved it. Even when i was at college io used to go to visit family and friends every half term/end of term. I am currrently trying to buy a house on the costa calida-murcia region.
Obviously when we first moved there it was horrible not being able to speak the language or really understand much of what was going on....
but i loved the sun and the beaches, and all the friendly people....
i went on various trips while i was at school, we went to granada,almeria,nerja,we went on s kiying trip witht the school to the pyranees.
I also used to go with my family to th sierra nevada for skiying, and to the alpujarras to relax in the m ountains.
I often vcisited coin-the set of the bbc soap -El dorado, as my mum worked there.
I went to asturias for a long weekend with my boyfriend at the time, which was amazing, we drove the length of spain and then had such a great time in asturias, where they have a very diffrent way of drinking cider!!!
obviuosly I have visited gibralta many times, and have seen it change very much in the last 20 years, but then agaijn so has spain,
The areas i used to spend most my time in were getting less and less traditional and more and more aimed at 'the tourist' or the ex pats....
I learnt the language (and am fluent) and mixed with all nationalities, spanish,english,swedish,italian...etc......
many british just try and stick to the british, and i dont think thats what you should do, but thats just my personal opinion.
anyway i think ive rattled on long enough
if you have any questions about spain, feel free to email me, if i can help i will :-)

Spain is many countries all rolled into one therefore the culture in Spain is very varied and interesting. Its Atlantic shores and the huge plains of the interior have very distinct characteristics. Similarly, the Mediterranean Costa's change вЂflavourвЂ™ as they sweep down from the Pyrenees through the pine forests of the Costa Brava. See http://www.spain4uk.co.uk/Spain_culture.htm for more details

Madrid is great - and the nearby cities of Segovia, El Escorial and Toledo are must see's. You can get there by train - a quick day trip.
Barcelona is also beautiful.
I basically loved everything about Spain. Only difficulty is if you're backpacking, most people don't speak (or don't want to speak) English - even train station staff, which can make life a little difficult.

I LOVE Barcelona. I just spent a month there and it was fabulous. The city is beautiful, the people are friendly and warm, the food is cheap. San Sebastian is also very nice and I like Granada.

Barcelona is beautiful, the wine tour and hop on hop off tour was really good, sooo much shopping to do their, and I wouldn't suggest driving around but would suggest some of their walking tours!!
