SPAIN
The land of tapas, flamenco, bullfighters and the “mañana” lifestyle
Welcome to SPAIN, where the sun never tires of shining, the food never disappoints and time passes so slowly. This country will teach you that a siesta is not laziness, but art – and that you can’t do better than with a glass of sangria or wine in your hand.
Spain is like a life guru – teaching you to slow down, enjoy the little things and eat as many tapas as you can handle. This country is full of sunshine, stories and unexpected surprises that will leave you in no doubt that you’ve arrived in paradise. Come with me to the places where Gaudi’s colourful architecture reigns supreme, looking like something Picasso created after a few glasses of wine.
If you’re looking for something deeper, take the pilgrimage route to Santiago de Compostela, which is for everyone: believers, non-believers and those who just like to get lost in nature. At the end, there’s a cathedral and a sense of having achieved something great – even if you’ve eaten more than meditated along the way.
¡Vamos a España!
CATALANIA
Catalonia is a region of distinction
It is no secret that Catalans have long been working towards the creation of an independent nation state. It is a ‘State within a State’ that has not given up on the idea of independence. And that’s why you’ll find a lot of designations in Catalan. So if you’ve come here to improve your Spanish, you’re not in the right place. Catalonia is one of the richest regions in Spain. Thanks to Barcelona, the resorts on the coast, but also thanks to the artistic legacy left behind by famous Catalans such as Salvador Dalí and Antoni Gaudí, it is the most sought-after tourist region in the country.
