Hello pretty:
Before anything I must apologize, my English is not very good, but I will try to deliver an attack.
Only I will tell to you that in Spain he is not everything so bad. They lost your suitcases, they robbed your bag, and the cars are manuals and the aida´s car spoils to you, and… likely that you notice that everybody watches you in the street. But… everybody watch to you so that for them you are exotic, and so that they really like you.

Believe that you are a good very intelligent girl and. you are working by a good future, and you will know to understand the Spanish culture in its measured joust.

Spain is consumed in the society of the well-being. The quality of life is between highest of the world, being located by the unit of intelligence of the British weekly magazine the economist in tenth place, in front of countries like France, United Kingdom, the United States or Canada. This causes that the inept ones of the Spaniards worry about things like not giving classes in the afternoons, when they would have to increase the hours of school so that their children can be more competitive in a society every day more global

The Spanish young people do not show great vital preoccupations, although its degree of optimism and happiness before the life is high. The causes of the happiness of Spanish youth must, fundamentally, to the harmony of their interpersonal relations with the friends, the pair and the family. To them it does not worry to them anything else that to my way to see is a delay


Spanish youth fundamentally identifies with its town or city. This feeling of root so hard towards its surroundings closest causes that they are very little arranged to mobility by no reason. This is another delay and I am, very to my grief, within this group


The young people have a dual nationalistic feeling and moderate, they are considered in general as Spanish as of its respective communities. Although to reside or in an historical independent community does not determine its autonomist inclination

But as I said not everything is bad

After living under a dictatorial regime for more than 30 years, the Spaniards developed to a total collective spirit of liberties and licenses, that some have described like the “great Spanish liberalization”. this it is the country of the individual liberties. If therefore you want it, it is possible that you can do it.


The Spaniards remain long time abroad and for that reason they have developed a capacity to talk very fluid and open; he is not strange to establish one healthy conversation with them in bars, taverns and places of leisure in general. The greeting to two kisses, one in each cheek, is perhaps the greater physical courtesy than they offer to his foreign visitors. Nevertheless, another class of physical contacts between the people reserve to the pairs or the old friends and is unusual who people are very expressive in this sense. Between the men, this contact reserve to the crossing of hands without much effusive. The speech is fast although haste is not had and the tone usually is imperative without it indicates superiority, misfortune or distance. The Spaniards are very direct and expressive in their opinions and judgments, which defend generally with honest and frank arguments.
The Spanish is proud of his form to be and to act, mainly in which he talks about the care of the geography of his country, which defends over everything. The economic crises which it has had to face Spain in century XX have made arise the other side of the Iberian character: the one of protection of its sources of use and the competitive vision with the other European nations
The Spaniards are mischievous, sleepwalker, proud, religious, brown, short, dirty, vague, no precise, loving of the family, smokers, extroverts, passional and temperamental, but also we are loyal and we will go to miss to you, or at least this Spanish who is sorry that you go away so soon. You enjoy of New York, and it learns the good thing of all the sites where you go. You must work hard, and forget the siesta. No foreigner forgets the siesta. Jijiji.


You return when you want. Here, you have a friend and a house.
