Another place in Spain. I love Spain. It's my country but above all, it's a complex country with old and diverse history, marvellous landscapes and rich nature. I feel pity(shame??) when some people think about Spain like Ibiza, Salou, Madrid, Barcelona or Marbella. If i could escape (with money and time) right now I'd go to Cantabría. It's my favourite place (really it's a big zone). I'm not from there (I was born in Madrid) and my family either, but its landscapes are beautiful, its beaches are little and close (intimate ??). You can find lovely mountains and hills with little towns and close people. And the gastronomy is great. You must taste "la quesada" ( a dessert), any dish with beef because the Cantabrian beef is high quality, "el cocido montañes" a complete strong dish or its fish ( above all "las anchoas de Santoña"). All these dishes are typical and any Cantabrian family could eat them any days. But, although all these things are amazing the best is its little towns like Santillana del Mar, Comillas, Potes,etc. and its people. https://machbel.com/7-pueblos-de-cantabria-que-tienes-que-visitar/ I hope you like them.

Another place in Spain.

I love Spain. It's my country but above all, it's a complex country with an old and diverse history, marvellous landscapes and rich natural beauty. I think it is a shame when some people think about Spain only in terms of Ibiza, Salou, Madrid, Barcelona or Marbella.
If I could escape (with money and time) right now I'd go to Cantabría. It's my favourite place (really it's a big region). I'm not from there (I was born in Madrid) and neither are my family either, but its landscapes are beautiful, its beaches are small and intimate. You can find lovely mountains and hills with little towns and friendly people. And the gastronomy is great. You must taste "la quesada" ( a dessert), any dish with beef because the Cantabrian beef is high quality, "el cocido montañes" a complete strong really filling dish or its fish ( above all "las anchoas de Santoña"). All these dishes are typical and any Cantabrian family could eat them any day.
But, although all these things are amazing the best thing is its little towns like Santillana del Mar, Comillas, Potes, etc. and its people.

(1) In English, we rarely start a sentence with And. Try to avoid that.


Below is a more common way to express what you are trying to say.

(2) I feel sorry for people who think about Spain in terms of.

Another place in Spain.

I love Spain. It's my country but above all, it's a complex country with an old and diverse history, marvellous landscapes and rich nature.
I feel pity(shame??) when some for people who think about Spain is only like Ibiza, Salou, Madrid, Barcelona or Marbella.
If i could escape (with money and time) right now I'd go to Cantabría. It's my favourite place (although really it's a big zone region). I'm not from there (I was born in Madrid) and my family isn't either, but its landscapes are beautiful, and its beaches are little small and close (intimate ??). You can find lovely mountains and hills with little towns and closely bound communities. And the gastronomy cuisine is great. You must taste "la quesada" ( a dessert), any dish with beef (because the Cantabrian beef is high quality), "el cocido montañes" (a complete strong hearty dish), or its the local fish (above all "las anchoas de Santoña"). All these dishes are typical traditional and any often eaten by Cantabrian families could eat them any days.
But, although all these things are amazing the best is its little towns like Santillana del Mar, Comillas, Potes, etc. and its their people.

Notes:

"gastronomy" is correct, but it's an abstract word that I have literally never heard anyone use in conversation.  "Cuisine" (formal) or simply "food" (informal) are used instead.  (This is common in English; we borrow a word from French when we want to be fancy.  =) )

"Typical" is almost correct, but English speakers don't use the word in the same way many Europeans do.  "Traditional" is generally closer to the intended meaning.

Thanks for the tips!  I'll have to go sometime.  Let me know if you have any questions, ~John
