    Flo6x8 Barcelona 08.02.12 Esto no es crisis, se llama capitalismo rumba catalana - YouTube

    "This isn't a crisis this is capitalism"

    Stunning way to demonstrate against the injustices foisted upon people by the banks in Spain. Spain is Different still.

    What do you think?

    Crisis in Spain, two different faces of Spain within just a few days

    I have just been sent a wonderful YouTube film of a demonstration in Barcelona about the crisis in Spain.  It is wonderful (breath-taking really) and shows the best side of Spain and the culture of Spain.

    The demonstration is set within an office of la Caixa, one of the biggest banks in Spain, and revolves around a by-line stating that ‘it is not a crisis – it is capitalism’.

    Do watch the film (it is very short) – and then ask yourself where else in the world could this happen?  Wonderful…

    Holidays in Spain and the top four tourist attractions in Spain!

    I was surprised by the number one spot in Spain's tourist attractions, will you be?

    So, what are the top four tourist attractions in Spain – the ones that have the most visitors per year? Well, as of 2011, they were:

    1.  The City of Arts and Sciences in Valencia (3.7 million visitors).

    2.  The Sagrada Familia in Barcelona (3.2 million visitors).

    3.  The Prado in Madrid (2.9 million visitors).

    4.  The Alhambra in Granada (2.3 million visitors).

    What a terrific cross-section of the old and new, dispersed right across Spain!

    In fact, I think anyone who knows Spain well would probably have had all the above four placed on their list of ‘must-see’ Spanish cultural attractions, albeit possibly in a different order.  Certainly, all are quite incredible and each and every one justifies a visit.

    Living in Valencia, I was gratified to see the City of Arts and Sciences in Valencia on the list and delighted to see that it made top place.  It is extraordinary and visually quite stunning.  Santiago Calatrava had an astonishing vision and it says much for the confidence of Valencia that the city embarked upon this massive, revitalisation project – let alone executed it.

    Central And Good Value Valencia Flat For Sale

    If you are looking for a decent city centre project in Valencia that has potential to rent out at a good rate after changing a few things at a very good price then this apartment may fit the bill. It isn't the most elegant building but the location is excellent and the price per square metre is well below comparable properties in the area. Might be interested in a sneaky lower offer too, you never know. 

    Take a look and get in touch if you feel that it may suit your needs.

    Yesterday I was taking a look at another attic flat on Calle Cabelleros and it was a total mess as the owner is doing it up. However it has great potential and has been reduced in price greatly. By next week i should have some decent photos because he might well have finished cleaning and adding a second bedroom. Keep in touch because flats with outside space like this in the centre of Valencia don't come up that often at this price.

    Fantastic Property in La Pobla De Vallbona Reduced By 30,000 Euros

    This excellent property in La Pobla De Vallbona has been reduced by 30,000 Euros today by the owners wanting a quick sale. There has been plenty of interest at the previous price of 250k so now at 220k I expect even more. Five bedrooms, two bathrooms and a lovely outside space with pool just a couple of minutes away from Betera, La Pobla and la Eliana on a well looked after estate with all facilities.

    Jason Webster "Or The Bull Kills You" Interview - YouTube

    An interview with Jason Webster about his new novel "Or the Bull Kills You". Jason writes about Spain and Spanish life for many publications and obviously he writes his own novels. He was kind enough to mention me and my work in an article on Easyjet Magazine which you can see here too (Unfortunately the link needs registration for some reason. The article is on Page 94 of the magazine once registered)

    I have also interviewed Jason and you can find it here
