I really miss some spanish traditions. In Spain is easy to have fun and see your friends without spending a lot of money. Mostly of my plans there are vinculated with terraces, cheap beer and some tapas. In my case, in Barcelona is very easy to go to the beach and see the sea while you are enjoying having lunch with your parents or friends. Sunny days and the beach give me a kind of energy that sometimes here is difficult to find.
