Travel With Me Through the Unknown Spain
Beautiful towns you won’t find in any catalog
We have a wedding in Potes! — I happily said to my husband.
Where did you say?
It’s in Cantabria, close to Picos de Europa. It’s gorgeous!
I’ve got no idea of what you’re talking about.
It wasn’t the first time we had this kind of conversation. But this time we were going to do something about it.
My husband is from Scotland. When we met in Uruguay, I loved his efforts to learn Spanish and how open-minded he is. He had traveled all around the world.
As a tourist, he visited the most typical cities of Spain: Barcelona, Valencia, Granada, and Seville. He also went to the Basque country with his Basque friends. The rest of the Spanish geography was a blurry stain on the map.
