A Fateful Spanish Drama

When there's a splat of blood and vicious commotion, the world swiftly turns its head faster to the source. Ironically, we tend to recognize more with the drama of bereavement than of life! That's why even if it's bloody and utterly evil, we are held captive with the majesty of bullfighting in Spain.

Bullfighting is not just a saddistic duel but may be a harmful dance to death. One miscalculated step and the horn of the mad bull will find its way through the strong matador's skin. The red cape is not just a bizarre ornament nor a fashionable blunder, but a matador's way to eventually bring down the dangerous opponent inside the ring. Every step is a chance to strike back or to defend honor and while we see it more as harmless fad, bullfighting in Spain is bestowed with much respect for the courage and glory of stepping up to the challenge.

Little do people see, bullfighting commenced as a sports venture dedicated for aristocracy back in 711 A.D. Before, while royalty got to use horses, the regular bullfighters stood barefoot on the ground, facing the most harmful match of their lives. With intense drama and exciting anticipation, bullfighting is another open attraction and spectacle you'll surely love in Spain.

Why Most Visitors Desire to Visit Spain

I could not deem that Spain ranks as the world's second most toured site after front runner France. To be included in the list of most visited sites is such a admirable achievement for a country like Spain. It only means that Spain is one of the most exciting and most beautiful sightseers destinations in the globe.

If you're also wondering why Spain reached this feat, here are my beliefs about it. Spain has many sightseer destinations that are truly great and amazing to see. For instance, if you're looking for magnificent beaches, you can drop by in the sites like Segovia, Andalusia, Toledo, and Salamanca. There are also other magnificent beaches in other sites of Spain like Rias Baixas, Mallorca, Salou, Valencia, Benidorm, Catalonia, Canary Islands, The Cantabrico, and Balearic Islands. But if you are the type of person who appreciates exciting sites, Barcelona and Madrid are your perfect choices. You can also visit other exciting sites like Pontevedra and Vigo in Galicia, Sevilla, Cordoba, and Granada.

Now, it depends on the site where you desire to go. But as long as Spain is your site, you can be sure of a striking and one of a kind vacation.

Expect Exciting and Tricky Men's Tennis

Last time, I wrote something about the pitiable performance of Spanish popular tennis player, Juan Carlos Ferrero. I do not know if he was able to read it because just this week the former world unsurpassed player made it to the Cincinnati Masters competition. Unfortunately, Ferrero lost to Andy Roddick but I understand what he has attained so far is a good development in his ailing tennis career. That Cincinnati accomplishment is a superb boost of confidence on his part as the important US Open in New York draws nearer.

It's been a long time since he played last in the semifinals and this must be very extraordinary for him because of the issues he had gone through. Personally, I am also cheerful for this latest improvement on his career. First, he being able to hammer world number two and fellow Spanish Rodel Nadal, is something that can bring back the spark in his vanishing career. Second, it can also encourage himself and help him grasp that he is still young and that he can still play competitive tennis.

The Cincinnati Masters competition only tells us that eventual frontrunners Federer and Nadal do not anymore dominate tennis. Come backing players like Andy Roddick and Juan Carlos Ferrero assure us that men's tennis would be very exciting and stimulating these coming days.

My Dazzling Spanish Pal

When I was young, I really desired to marry a Spanish girl because I find them sexy and dazzling. Back in college, I had a Spanish pal who introduced me to this dazzling girl. She was unquestionably sociable and very nice even if that was the first she met me. To tell you sincerely, I was so discreet that time because I did not know how to react in front of her. She is so dazzling and her smile is so wholesome. These words are unquestionably understatements of how she unquestionably looks like in person.

My pals were teasing me already to court her because according to them it's evident that the lady also liked me. Nonetheless, even if I unquestionably liked her, there's a certain part of me saying that I should not court her. Feasibly, it is my instinct that is telling me that we're not going to click as match. Consequently, what I did was I maintained my friendship with her and you know what, until now we still keep in touch and talk about our own families. Currently, she's married already but we remained good pals. She even invited my whole family to visit the different picturesque sites in Spain.

Enjoyable and Impressive Rome Adventure

My first visit in Rome was nothing but impressive and very enjoyable. All of our preparations like hostel arrangement before the vacation paid off because we really had a nice time. We were fortunate to find a comfy hostel where we could stay for two weeks.

Hotel Modigliani was such a blessing for us because it made our stay impressive and comfortable. It was one of my chums' suggestion to make a arrangement in one of the hotels in the middle of the city. We took his advice because we did not want to encounter hostel drawback when we reach our destination. We went there to enjoy the splendid view of Rome and not to be bothered with our hostel matters. Fortunately, we saw this hostel on the internet and made a arrangement for all of us.

At first, we we're all nervous because we have read that some tourists encountered drawbacks regarding their online arrangement. Nonetheless as soon as we entered the room assigned to us, all of our fears were gone because our money was not wasted after all. The hostel facilities and amenities, together with the friendly hostel, staff were all great. That's the explanation we propose to come back in Hotel Modigliani next year.
