A blog about Spain; its culture, gastronomy and people. Basically I write about my experiences in Spain and try to share the best of this magnificent and varied country with those who have an interest in all things Spanish. Anything from recipes,fiestas,photos,birds of prey,walks,wine,bodegas, meals,mountains and .visits to new places. My name is Paddy Waller and I have lived in Spain for more than 20 years and am married to Julia who is Spanish. I hope you enjoy the blog. Disfruta!

Hi, I'm the man who led the parade of Maulets in Xàtiva. We belong to the 'Miquelets del Regne de València, 18th century reenactment group "and we are very proud to be separatists. You can visit our website www.micalets.cat. Next year we'll have a parade with more troops and resources and represent the entrance to the city of John the Baptist General Basset. Regards.
