Hello kpine

Wellcome onboard! . No better way you could have chosen, congrats, great idea.

About your request :

I'm from Spain so come and visit us!
We are friendly people, maybe a bit noisy ( it depends on the area of Spain the noise level could vary :P ) but harmless. However we are proud of being spaniards and love our way of life.
We tend to respect those who show us respect , this last tip is important if you are a "tourist" or a "traveller", we are very used to both kinds of visitors.
We value authenticity and naturallity of people who first approaches to you looking at your eyes with a clean glance .
We are very diverse. There are lot of cultures inside the main one.We have areas called "Autonomías" with their own languages and habits.

As if you are a city explorer or a landscape traveller you will find what you are looking for and even more. We have plenty of beaches , mountains,rivers,isles,deserts and forests. We have warm days on the main part of the year ; taking into account the area in wich you are this can hardly vary.

Some security tips:
Be aware when in public places on big cities, thieves may come up .Watch out during night walks on ancient parts of our big cities or you could be in strange or dangerous position .
Take into account anyother security advice to be followed on any big city around the world.Caution is a must.

If you like music ( maybe no mainstream one...) you must visit "The Rincón Pío Sound" in Don Benito (Spain)...and others I could add if you where interested .

Note: in my blog you can see some pics I shared of Spain.

Hope I gave you a non "pink" or super cool but a real perspective of Spain another country in this crazy world.

Best wishes
