Easter Holiday in Spain Hello all and first of all: Happy Easter! I want to talk about Easter Holiday, here, in Spain, nobody is working from yesterday (the 24th of March) to next Sunday, because everybody is on Easter Holiday. If you are a very religious person, probably you are going to stay in your town and you are going to the church and to see the processions which are celebrated everywhere in Spain, but the most beautiful processions are in Sevilla (in my opinion), other people choose to go to the beach, since the good weather is starting, spring just arrived, and if you are lucky you can even swim in the sea. Another thing very typical here, and a thing you are surely going to do, is eating "Torrijas" (French toast), Torrijas are made with bread and milk (some people use wine instead of) and then covered with eggs and fried on the pain, and finally covered with sugar or honey. ¿What do you usually do on Easter Holiday? Happy weekend!

Christmas time We are almost at Christmas, Everybody likes this dates, they are dates full of hapiness and excitement, especially for the kids. But each part of the world has different customs on Christmas; for instance, here, in Spain, on New Years` eve at 12:00 o´clock we eat twelve grapes for each ring of the clock`s bell, first ring, first grape, second ring, second grape...and like that until twelve grapes! We always are laughing at our family trying to finish every grape without choking, and then when we finish all the grapes we start hugging and kissing to each other and shouthing "Happy New Year!". Another spanish tradition at Christmas is "The three kings", every January 5th, we leave our shoes on the living room, expecting that, the next day, those three kings have left our present next to our shoes, this is a secret for all the kids in the world, everybody knows that that presents are left by our own parents, but if you see a child on the street you have to know that you can´t speak about that near him, it´s the universal secret.

Madrid Hello, My name is Gema and I live in Madrid. I was born in Mostoles, Mostoles is a south city of Community of Madrid where I grew up, I have been lived here since I was a baby and currently I still live here; but lately, I am thinking about move to Madrid city, because I think it is much interesting than Mostoles, and I work in the center of Madrid, so I wouldn´t have to drive and take the underground every day from Mostoles to Madrid. I would have less time to get work if I move to Madrid city. But first I would like to safe some money since I live with my parents and that facts alow me to spend less money than If I would live alone or with some friend. So, by the moment, I think I will stay at home, and maybe next year I could move to Madrid city.
