Bullfights

Hello!

I'd like to know what do you think about the bullfights "corrida de toros" in spanish, unfortunately is a typical Spanish tradition.
This tradition is celebrate in a bullfighting area, where there public of all ages, waiting for that the bullfighter kills to the bull. 

I am 100 % against of that tradition of course, I think is very very disgusting but I like to know the opinion of people of various countries.

 

Greetings to everybody!

Response an email from a friend Hello! I'm glad to hear from you! Your holidays sounds great! Well, in my case, I have to wait until August. Finally, my parents, my brother and I are going to travel to Sardinia, for one week (there life is more expensive than here, so we just have reserved an apartment for seven days). Well, this will be my first time since ten years ago that I don't go to Ibiza! I suppose that I've bored this island... I'm kidding! I really don't exclude the possibility of a little escapade in September, it would be great if you could come with me! In summari, I'm impatient to receive your postcard. I'll send you other when I'm in Sardinia. Best wishes, Cristina

Interesting facts about my country One of the most interesting natural features in Spain are the coasts, there are many types of coasts and all them beautiful. The best time of the year to visit my country can be summer, well, it depends on the person, but if you want to take a bath in Mediterranean Sea it is a good time! I recomend you visit Balearic islands! Menorca is a hippie island, with varied beaches and good food! Mallorca also has beautiful beaches, but is more tourist. Ibiza is my favourite island, I've been there many times! Is the combination of relax and party, depends on you, if you want to be calm you can stay in the northern, but if you wanna party you must be in the southern! But if you want to visit some historic cities of Spain, like Córdoba or Madrid, I recomend you visit them in spring or autum, because in summer the heat is insupportable!

Childhood I think that present childhood is very different from 30 years ago. In the past, there wasn't so variety of toys as now. It was typical to go to the street and play with your friends to football, to baseball, to hide and seek, skipping the rope, cycling... It was a childhood more sociable and more active. Also, you spent more time with your family playing board games at home. But now, the most common is play alone to computer games a couple of hours, sitting on the sofa. So children don't move and are unsociable. For this reason, I think that a good idea is to register them in extracurricular activities, is good!

Natural wonder The highest mountain in Spain is Teide. It’s around 3,718 meters and it is in Tenerife. Another popular mountain here in Catalonia is Pedraforca, is considered a magic mountain. One of the legends says that in New Year’s eve the witches gather togheter in Pedraforca and jump and dance over the bushes. Pedraforca it’s around 2,500 meters high. There are a lot of waterfalls in Spain, one of them is Cascada Chorrogil, in Jaén, it has a drop of 100 meters and it’s amazing. The biggest lake in Spain is Lago de Sanabria, in Zamora. It’s 53 meters deep. In Spain there is a famous desert called Desierto de Tabernas, is in Almeria and it’s very famous because there filmed a lot of Far West films, through of its similarities with the North American deserts.

The most interesting thing about Sweden The most interesting thing about Sweden is the nature and the scenery. I think is very beautiful and cleaner than here in Barcelona. Also, I think it's interesting the lifestyle. I haven't been there but it seems like quieter. And the salaries are better from here in Spain!

A description My friend Valeria is my best friend since 8 years ago. We knew in the school, and she always had a lot of boyfriends! She’s very pretty, and she has a big blue eyes and brown long hair. But her personality makes her different and special. At first glance, she seems rude and serious, but she has other best qualities! She’s really generous and helpful. She’s always spend time with me when I’m in problems, for example. Also, she’s practical , so she gives me good tips! But I can say her defaults! Ok, for example, she’s pretty mean, she’ll never invite you to the movies! And also she’s completely impatient, if we do an exam, she needs to know the outcome already! Sometimes she drives me mad!

An exciting experienceI I had a exciting experience last year, with my friends. We went to Montseny, to make a barbecue in the mountain and spending all day. But the time passed and was later to come back home, so we decided to spend the night in a hostel near where we are. When we arrived there, it seemed like a terror movie, the owner was crazy and his daughter too. We began to laugh for the situation, and they started to scream and shout and throw chairs and things to us!!!! So we began to run to the car!! Fortunately, only was a scare, and we arrived safe and sound to our homes!
