Been to many countries from east to west. I think people generally are all the same everywhere once you get to know them better. One has to be open and not shy to reach out to the natives of any country to understand and experience the culture, food and beauty of each country visited. They are all very nice to visit except for those wartorn ones.

I did a grand tour of Spain a few years ago and I agree that the Spanish people are very friendly -- muy simpaticos. It was a fabulous trip.
Started off in Madrid, then traveled to Barcelona to see the Holy Family Cathedral of Gaudi. After Barcelona we headed due north to Rosas popping into Andorra and Perpignan France for a day. Then we went south through Valencia, Alicante, staying in Malaga, and visited Gibraltar. We took the ferry to Morocco and finished the trip in Granada, Cordoba, Jerez and Seville. The Alhambra gardens were magnificent.
I fondly remember this trip -- the food, the people, the country along with delicious wines, cavas and beers.
Spain has a lot to offer the traveler! OLE!

I traveled through Andalusia two years ago and fell in love with Seville. I learned to dance the flamenco,sort of anyway, at a class held at the Flamenco Museum.

Any special restaurants you'd be sure to go back to?
