My country it is a fabulous place. My city it's beautiful by her architecture.
If you are going to visit my country I recommend that you must visit our mountains, for example "Pico de las Nieves" or Ravine of "Azuaje", because in there you can find some of our endimic nature.
Other stops necesary in my country are the beachs, you can visit Las Canteras beach and dive in the sea.
The last stop that you must make in your visit its the neighborhood of Vegueta. In there you can see the architecture postcolonial and our cathedral.
The two plates of food that I recommend are "wrinkled potatoes with hot "mojo" and plugs of cherne with green "mojo", because they are typical foods of my country.
My country has many things that visit, you can enjoy the beaches and mountains, museums and of course there is the typical Spanish food.
My neighborhood is small and cozy, but is within a large city where many people.
I recommend to my country to visit the beaches of Fuerteventura and they are wonderful, I also visit the peak of Mount Teide, which is the largest in Spain, and could last the island of La Palma for their fantastic festivals.
I recommend eating two dishes from my country, omelette and potatoes with mojo, as are my favorites.
My country is nice, noisy, green, interesting and entertained. My town is sunny, dry, noisy, contaminated and very populated.
The Canteras´s beach is a good place to go because always is good time, the water is clean and is very agreeable to be there. Another place to visit is Vegueta. It’s the older part of Las Palmas. His houses and his streets are very beautiful. It’s a place designs to walk. Finally, another special place of the island is Mogán. This place is very nice. His beaches are amazing and his village is very beauty.
Some own for Las Palmas and delicious are kind of potatoes that name is "papas arrugadas" because they are healthy and tasty. Another plate is "gofio escaldado". He eats up warmly and accompanying for example with fished.
This is the best picture for me

My country is a fantastic and interesting place. My city is unique with a few incredible places.
If you want to visit my country, you must visit our beaches and our mountains as for example the “Teide” the volcano more highly of Spain or the beach “La Concha” of San Sebastian that is a very romantic places. Another very nice place of our country is the “Alahambra”of Granada .It’s very beautiful and very interesting of our culture.
I recommend you two plates food typical of the canary island are Wrinkled potatoes( papas arrugadas) with “mojo” sauce of pepper and fish with mojo too. These plates of food are very tasty.
My country is in an economical crisis time. My city is know because of its corruption.
In my country you can visit Corralejo's big beaches, in Fuerteventura's island, Timanfaya's mountain, in Lanzarote's island, and The Sacred Family, in Barcelona. Because they are beautiful places.
I recommend you to eat wrinkles potatoes and spanish omelette because these are the most typical plates and they taste really good.
For me Spain is diferent..why?, because if you are looking for great weather, nice people, the major number of bars, incredible sightseeing to take pictures and the culture of siesta, your country is Spain.
My city is Madrid, I love that place. Madrid, when the summer arrives is very hot but in winter you can practice winter sports like snowboard, ski and ice skating. in Madrid there are many young people so is the best city to go clubbing.Also is a good place for food lovers and food tourist.
You can´t go to spain and can´t back to your country without have seen the Cibeles fountain, the green montains of Asturias and the Alhambra in Granada.
I recommend for eat a typical food of Madrid called "cocido madrileño", and the most popular food in Spain, the PAELLA! if you want take the perfect pack you only have to sleep a siesta.
Call me if you came!
I think Spain is one of the best places to live. We have many peculiarities that make Spain a special country.
We are entertaining (we are the quarter country in Europe at videogames sales), relaxing ( we have one bar, cafeteria
or restaurant for each 134 citizens) and party-goer (Spain is the favourite destiny chosen by foreings students
by our partys) what more can you ask for?
One of the place I recomend you to visit is "Teide" the biggest volcano in Spain with 3718 meters of heigth.
Other place I would visit if I came Spain, it would be "Bernabeu Stadium" in Madrid, the football´s Olympus,
home of one of the best football teams of the world.
The third place I have chosen is "valencia´s city of arts and science" I think those buildings are the most beutiful
from Spain, specially "El ojo".
with no dude the best food in Canarias is our potatoes with mojo, you neither can return if you have not eated a
good plate of goat meat with sauce.
My country is a calm place, with an ideal temperature to live, where the people are wonderful and where we have a microclimate in Canarian Islands: every island has a different aspect.
The most important problem of Canarian Islands is their insularity.
I would like to recommend three wonderful places of my country: Taburiente's Boiler and the waterfall of colors, in the island of La Palma, the beautiful beaches of Fuerteventura and Lanzarote, and the enormous Teide in the island of Tenerife.
The autochthonous food of my city is very varied. In the island of La Palma people do very good sweets as for example: The prince alberto, bienmesabe, cheese of almond... In all the islands, the typical food is potatoes with sauce and the gofio. In La Gomera the almogrote that is a mixture of sauce with cheese, tomatoes.
The photo that I have chosen is a colage of images of La Palma.
At the moment I can´t add the images but in a future when I can add them I would like to obtain your opinion.
Up to soon. Sara!!!
I think that Spain y the best country but live, more exactly canary island.The island have got a good wheather and exelent beach and culture.
My country have got beauttiful place, there is diferent culture and the most important is there is a exelent lugar where you can go out with yout friend.
If you go to my city, "telde", can see that is a big city have got more or less 100.000 habitants and only havo got a one shopping center and two cinema, but is a good city because there isn´t a lot of people and you can walk in calm by the city.
If you go to canarias I recomender diferents food ,but the most caracteristics is " papas con mojo" but there is more "potaje" , "ropa vieja" ....and more, and also have got the drink for example "clipper" , beer "tropical".And the most tipical of canarias is the "gofio" is exelent aliment.I recomender this food because have got a lot of nutrients and are very very delicius.
My country has a romantic image with the foreigners. It's a very rich country geographically (very varied landscapes, many direct borders with the other countries and the Atlantic Ocean but also the Mediterranean Sea), culturally (history, food, a lot of interbreeding) but it's also very expensive.
My city is for me one of the most beautiful city of France. It has the peculiarity to be mainly built with reds bricks (where from her name of " pink city ") and has numerous green spaces and river, it's the city which moves and all this in a warm atmosphere.
If I had to choose three places to be made visit it would be Paris because it's the capital, the symbol of the romanticism, where there is numerous visits to make as the Louvre, the effeil tower, the triumphal arch... I would also choose my city, naturally, as its atmosphere and its beauty, but also Biaritz, one of the cities preferred by the French vacationers and favourite beach of the surfers.
I spécially recommend wine of my region, because it makes left the best wines of the world, but also "foie-gras" which Spanish called "pathé" in ours big despair.
My country is a fabulous pleace. Canary is a volcanic archipelago, with seven islands; "Tenerife", "La Palma", "El Hierro", "La Gomera", "Gran Canaria", "Lanzarote" and "Fuerteventura" and some small islands; "La Graciosa", "Clara", "Roque Del Este", "Roque Del Oeste" and "Lobos".
There is a magnific place to live, you can enjoy the springtime every year, also same the lucky islands!
Tenerife is the most biggest island in the archipelago, you may like the scenary with biggest mountains, blue sky and big abyss, I invited to visit "Masca", an village so much frienly, who you see a splendid scenary when you arrive.
If you like the mountaineering, you can´t pass to Tenerife without rise at Teide, there´s the peak more hill in Spain. You can stay the nigh in a refuge, and befor dawn you stard to go up to the hill, and see the dawn there. With a little lock you can see the other islands who shape the archipelago. There is a incredible sensation!
You would be to visit places like "Anaga", "Barranco Del infierno", "Garachico", "Los Gigantes"...if you came in summer don´t forget to pass in a "Romeria party" who is a tipical canary party, where you can know a little of own culture, drunk a lot of wine and eat potato with sauce.
If you can, you must visit all the islands cause there are all different and the scenary evoke all corner of world.
1 My country is interesting, dynamic, nice, multicultural and enterteined.
My town is green, calm, rural, traditional and peaceful.
2 In my opinion, people should visit three fantastic places in my country : Spain, as for example: Andalucia, Madrid and Canary Island.I choose this places, because, Madrid, for example is the capital of Spain, and is a place with differents cultures and have many places to visit, as for example:museums, as for example, "El Prado", many theatres, Santiago Bernabeu´s football stadium, and you can visit "La Puerta Del Sol" too.During your stay you can take the train to Toledo, that is wonderful! If you love shopping, you can visit "La Gran Via"...Andalucia, is a interesting place, to visit in Spain, is famous by his festivals and parties,for example, known "april party",when we visit Andalucia, we can to give a walk in horse. It´s a great sensation!can go with your friends or family and also can visit one of the interesting places of Spain, with a surprising history :"La Alhambra".Finally, Canary Island, because have wonderful places and a god weather all year we can enjoy with the beach and the sun.But, if you prefer to visit the natural places, Canary offers interesting protected reserves, such as: La Caldera de Taburiente in La Palma, "Garajonay" in La Gomera...
3 If you will visit Spain, you should prove our famous plates, as for example : "Paella" in Valencia, and "GofiO" in Canary Island, we can accompany these plates with a good wine, for example "viña travieza" "Vitega" "Nispero" and others. I choose this plates, because in my opinion, are very exquisites and people that visit our country should try.
1 My town is a little place in my island (La Palma) but is the most beautiful place on the world, it's sunny and on summer has got a amazing sunsets.
2 I think that in La Palma there are a lot of interesting places but I only choose three. First you can visit "La Caldera de Taburiente" it's a national park in where live a lot of native species of animals and plants. Also you can visit a very funny party called "indianos" in carnival, this is a tradition in where everyvody wear white clothes and the people throwing talcum powder, this party es very famous in the canary island. Other famous place in the island is " El roque de los muchachos" it's the biggest place on the island and has got a lot of important telescopes on the world, scientist says "is the best place on the world for look the stars"
3 in canary island there are a lot of typical foods and drinks that can be recommended, for example "El mojo", "papas arrugadas" and "rapaduras" and a refresh drink as "Nik"
My country is beautiful, multicultural, interesting, green ... But I live in Canary island. It is a group of islands: Tenerife, El Hierro, La Palma, La Gomera, Gran Canaria, fuerteventura and Lanzarote. All these island are completely different. I live in Tenerife and in my opinion is good place for living because its green, have a good weather and a nice food too. But Canary island is a special place because in these island lives wonderful people.
If you came to Tenerife, you should go to a wuachinche, it is a little bar where can eat domestic food and wine.
My country is funny, fantastic, relaxing and very beatifull by his different landscapes. The city where I were born (Icod de los Vinos) is calm and beatifull, and has the tree more anciant of the Canary Island, The Drago Millenarium, that has some 2000 years old.
If you travel to Tenerife, have to visit the Teide, that is the volcan more high of Spain and see a very beatifull and original landscape. You have to visit the Drago millenarium too, and all the beach and mountain that you can, because all are differents and very expectacular.
If you travel the Canary Island have to eat potatoes with "mojo canario" and test the "gofio" and the wine of the country (vino del país), that there are a lot of differents.If you travel to the Canary Island liked you.
From my point of view, spain is a turistic, varied, modern, funny and joiful country. And my city, tahiche, is small, quite, silence, calm and green.
I think three places to go in my country are Madrid, Canarias and Barcelona
Madrid is the most important spanish city, and it is very modern.
Canary island have a wonderful weather and I think there are the most beautiful landscapes of Spain like Famara, Caldera de Taburiente, El Teide, Timanfaya, Las Canteras or Las Dunas
And Barcelona is a very cultural city where you can visit Las Ramblas, La Sagrada Familia... it's very european.
I would recommend paella because it is very tasty and it is typical of Valencia and the most typical food of my country is spanish omelette which is made of potatos and egs.
Argentina is a very large country but there aren´t many people over there, about 40 million people. My country, nowadays, is a bit chaotic place, everyone is in a hurry, but in general the people is kind and nice.
About my city, Buenos Aires, I can say that is a very interesting place to visit, there are some national monuments, a lot of squares and all the city is cover of trees. In Buenos Aires you will be at -6º in winter and 42º in summer, so you can see that weather in Buenos Aires changes a lot.
I recomend you to visist the glecier Perito Moreno, it´s a huge glecier in the Patagonia, south of Argentina.
Another great place to visit are Iguazu falls in the norht limit with Brazil. There are some beautiful waterfalls that you can see if you are in Brazil or in Argentina.
The last place is Bariloche, that is a city in the middle-south of the country. You can practice all kind of winter sports.
For me, the best dish in Argentina is roast meat with "chimichurri", that is a typical souce; other food that i recommend you are Alfajores, that are sweets with chocolate.
If you are thinking to go to south America, Argentina would like you very much!
My country is great! I live in a village called "Adeje" in south Tenerife, it has everything, on one hand there are good beaches, it's sunny every year and a very quite and peacefull place, on the other hand, in five minutes you have some streets for tourist and where there is party every night.
I think i you come you must go party to "Las Veronicas", you also must go to a hide beach called "Diego Hernandez" which is so relax, and finally you have to visit "El Teide", it's the third biggest volcano of the world. It's beautiful and going there is a good experience.
In our islands is absolutelly necesary to eat some white cheese especially the cheese from "Arico", that this year was the best of the world, and the "gofio", there are a lot of them with honey, almonds...
Hi all together,
what say about my country? At the begining It could be a philosophical question :o). No,no my country is heart of Europe, nice. Prague, the capital city of the czech republic is historically famous (cathedral, Carl' s bridge, the astromical clock in old city,...) You can feel a touch from medieval century in every wall, street.
The CZ is situated in middle of Europe with Vltava river which going to the North Sea. Winter and summer climate is very different. In winter normally temperature is about -8, but max. could be - 25 degrees C. The czech mountains very often are (situated) on the boundary between two countries (such as Krusne, Jizerske mountains, Sumava, Oderske Vrchy, Jeseniky).
My city is situated on the north of CZ. It is Liberec between Jizerske mountains and Jestedsko-kozakovsky range.
I choose: Prague - historical centre,
Cesky Krumlov - the nicest city in CZ,
Valtice - area of wine.
Tradicional meal is rosted pork, dumplings, cabbage. Czech kitchen is not health. Basic of kitchen often is sauce and ...But Fast food is coming from the world (big meal company).
Regards Honza
Hello my country is Catalonia, it is modern, beautifully, culte, and also rich in tradicional customs and arts like musique, literature, sports and festivities. Politically Catalonia still belongs to Spain and it has a lot of beautifully places to visit. Starting with one of the best, if you come to visit Pirineos Montains you’ll never forget theirs Natural Parcks were you can practice all kind of activitis during all the year. We have a lot of good ski stations and out of the crowds you can practice climbing, rafting, treking, etc... The second good place to visite are the Catalonia’s coasts were we have a lot of kind of beaches from very turistic ones with all the services you can imagine to the moust virgin, natural and hidden beaches. And the last place I didn’t left to visit if I were you is the city of Barcelona were you can see the amazing Gaudí’s arqhitecture knowed all round the world, like the huge Sagrada Familia Cathedral or the beautifull Gaudi’s Parck.
I like Catalan’s gastronomie very much because it includes the best ingredients of Mediterranian diet and it has delicious and genuines dishes like Escudella, it is similar to Cocido maded in all Spain but you have to cook the vegetables with meat of pig, cow and chiken. Also we have differents catalan’s prolucts like Pan Tomaca, it’s only a toast of bread radded with tomatoe, salt, and olive oil but their delicious flavour convines good with a lot of meals, on of the best is highland ham. From Catalonia comes a very laboriouse sauce if you make it with your hands, it is All i Oli called with the names of the ingredients in catalan lenguage, Garlic and Oil respectively . It is a sauce for accompaining all meats and it’s industrially version is also very used a lot in Islas Canarias. In desserts we have the tipically Catalan Cream and in splite of I don’t like alchool for drink we are famous in our wines fron Penede’s lands and Cava that is like French champagne but maded in Catalonia.
My city, Las Palmas, is a beautiful place to live. Is the main city of Gran Canaria island and the weather is hot all the year!
If you came to las Palmas, you have to visit Las Canteras beach, the old part of the city (Vegueta) and Mesa y Lopez street, where you can buy in a lot of shops like ''El corte ingles'', very famous in Spain.
The typical foods in Gran Canaria are the ''wrinkled potatoes'' with red or green 'mojo' (a sause) but if you want to get strongest, I recomendt you to eat 'Gofio', you can eat with milk and also with ' Potaje' !
See you!
