Mark Buckingham - ArticlesA Taste of WineThe production of wine is an incredibly fine balance of fruit and time – and expertise. Reds, Whites and Sweet Dessert Wine productions are described below. Iznate, Spain – Mountainous Region of Moscatel WineJust 29km from Malaga and 5km from the coast, the Iznate area is covered with olive and almond trees along with grape vines producing the Muscatel grapes that are used to make the local wine. Salamanca, Spain – Modern City With Small Village ValuesSalamanca has forged itself a new identity these days and is now a mix of modern city, small village and university town which all sit together in harmony. This gives the towns numerous visitors the advantage of a good, modern infrastructure coupled with a warm and friendly atmosphere. Caring for Cats – the Easy WayIt is often said that ‘a cat looks after itself’. Well that may be an exaggeration, but if they condescend to being ‘friends’ with you, then you must be doing something right. Gaucin, Spain – Do All Roads Really Lead to RomeThe village of Gaucin in Malaga, Spain is characterized by the steepness of its streets and the multitude of steps built as a result of this. The whitewashed houses of the village make it one of the most beautiful in the region. Frigiliana – Mountainous Spanish Village of Sugar CanesHistory books describe Frigiliana as a rocky and mountainous place that could be defended from an entire army of invaders by a relatively small number of well armed people, due mainly to the difficulty they would have in gaining access. Finana in Spain - Building the Multicultural SocietyFiñana in Almeria, Spain has led a multicultural life. Arabs, Moors and Christians have each held claim to this small Andalucian village. Flamenco – Passion and Expression in Spanish MusicThe centuries have seen flamenco progress from sombre home songs expressing feelings of hardship to popular stage shows throughout the world. Reasons for Living in SpainSpain is a magnificent country with a rich and diverse culture. The varied landscapes and exciting gastronomy make it one of the most visited places in Europe. There aren’t many other countries that can claim to offer skiing in the mountains and sunbathing on the beach within the same winter months. Balearics - Fun in the Sun on Stone Age IslandsAs a holiday destination, the Balearic Islands take some beating. Around two hours from the UK, beautiful beaches and friendly locals are just some of the attractions, but wander away from the resorts to discover hidden gems in islands each with their own rich cultural heritage.
