My stay: "Tomitina (mountain Biking)"

written: 25 August 2005
Hi, First time i have used this site, and i'm off to bunol this month for another great "tomitina". Last year i came across a family run b&b just 15mins from Bunol, who let me stay with them upto the tomitina in bunol(tomatoe throwing festival).They even took me and collected me as they knew parking was going to be a problem. The great thing about the trip was that they run Mountain Biking trips from the "Casa" and i'm hooked. been back twice already and they have run some great days out for me and my BF and mates. Thing to do is let them know your staying in Spain and you get it a lot cheaper than uk residents. anyone interested ive them a look at TraxnTrailz.co.uk but don't tell them your in the uk. There great supllied bikes first time and all the equip and really looked after us. FRED

Pros: great adventure weekend
Cons: have to sahre a room and bathroom with ur friends

"Origen y diversidad"

written: 29 December 2002
Valencia anda ya por su tercer milenio. Es una de las ciudades más antiguas de Europa y en sus alrededores se establecieron lo que los antropólogos llaman "los primeros pobladores". Recordemos Edetania.... Valencia es un crisol que ha amalgamado desde Íberos y Felicios hasta estadounidenses. En verano, si visitamos sus terrazas es normal escuchar las lenguas más exóticas y contemplar inesperados modos. El "Mio Cid" lo estudian en Argentina y Tirant Lo Blanc "nació" de la pluma de dos valencianos.

'Vaca profana' by Caetano Veloso: "Drink orchata!"

written: 03 July 2000
I've never understood why it is only possible to find orchata in Spain. I find it the most refreshing and natural drink around. It's made out of 'chufa' which are some sort of nuts that are delicious when put in the water for a while... <br> As brazil's Caetano Veloso says in 'Vaca profana':<br> Mas eu também sei ser careta, de perto ninguém é normal Às vezes segue em linha reta, a vida que é meu bem, meu mal No mais, as "ramblas" do planeta, "Orchata de chufa, si us plau"

Pros: tasty, fresh, healthy
Cons: milky
