Typical Spanish.

Some people around the world have the wrong impression about Spaniards. Well...I'm Spanish and I am going to try to debunk some cliches from Spain.

1- Spanish food.

Tacos is not Spanish food, it is from Mexico, we share the same language but we are separated by 9000 km.

2- Bullfighting

This horrible tradition is in decline, the bull is our international icon and unfortunately it is in relation with bullfighting. This tradition is only supported in the most rural areas and for people with a very low IQ ( what the Spanish people call "deep Spain").

3- Siesta (sleep after lunch).

This is most common in the summer, in our holidays when we have free time. And I think because we have a different schedule compared with the rest of Europe, we dine at 9-10 pm, we go to sleep at 12 pm more or less and we wake up at 6-7 am...but once more this is a cliche and the most common is being working after lunch.

I went to a bullfight and I enjoyed it. I think it is unfair that you judge people by what they enjoy doing. It is very simple...if you dont like it, dont go.

No seas aguafiestas, hay muchas personas en este mundo y como se dice, sobre los gustos no hay nada escrito. suenas como un animalista. Cuando estuve en España tuvimos muchas conversaciones divertidas sobre los animalistas
