I try to remain open minded about everything. The world consists of approx 198 countries & they all have their pros & cons, Spain included. I must say, i do love the generally warm, bright & friendly nature of the Spanish, plus their wonderful hospitality. My husband, who is Norwegian, just loves Madrid & said he could easily live there for some years. Take care and peace to you and to all.

    I live in Andalucia and your video gives a true version. Should you return I strongly advise visiting the white village of Mijas pueblo( about half an hour from Malaga) It's extremely beautiful. Also not to be missed is the amazing village of Setenil near Ronda. The houses ,shops and restaurants are built into the rocks. Slightly inland are the beautiful emerald coloured lakes and nearby the famous el caminito del Rey. The AMAZING rock formation at el torcal is truly something not to be missed,as one feels as if one is on another planet. Please do come back to capture more.

My tour guides were Qualified Historians by the Spansih Gov.all who spoke about the flourishing of Iberia during the Islamic period. Islamic Iberia was a beacon of light during the European dark ages, Muslims, Jews and christians lived in harmony, this would be unthinkable in Christian lands.

      Western media brainwashing? The scholarly research is there for you to read. Let's get this clear...the Moors were not an invited force in the Peninsula. Spain was a Christian territory long before the Moors invaded. What is so difficult to understand about the word INVASION?
      Perhaps you think INVASION of Middle Eastern lands happening now are good and there to make those nations civilized and bring democracy?

The stunning flora and fauna, the forts, historic buildings, the sun, the food, the general culture. An amazing country & i'd even say, is still quite underrated unfort. Take care. Peace
