Hola,
This song has been on the radio in Spain for quite some time and it has been on my play list for running longer. Finally there is a video. Knowing the song before I saw the video I was curious to see how it would turn out. The video is excellent! I love the cycling scene. David Guetta is world famous. Enjoy!

Video of the Week - Sak Noel "Loca People"
Hola,
This week I chose Sak Noel's "Loca People." Its about a person who visits Spain and their encounter. I predict I will see something similar during Carnaval. Tomorrow I set out for a road trip starting in Valencia. Sak Noel is from the province Catalunya, Spain. This song was big across Europe in 2011. Enjoy.

GLOW ABOUT - Spain Style
Hola,
I had my birthday party a few weekends ago and it was a smash! Thank you to everyone who came out to celebrate. This was the first party I had in my flat. I think it was a good way to break in the place. What do you think? Enjoy the photos:

Video of the Week - Madonna "Give me all your luvin'(feat. Nicki Minaj & MIA)"
Hola,
This week I have chossen the recently released video for Madonna's "Give me all your luvin.'" The video is great! This song is from the soon to be released MDNA album, Madonna's 12th studio album! Its scheduled to be released later in March, and it is sure to be one of the most antisipated albums of the year.
Madonna was the halftime entertainer this year at the superbowl. Her performance was super! "Give me all your luvin"'s video has a football theme. Enjoy

Weekend Trip to Vitoria
Hola,
I recently traveled to Vitoria, Spain in the Basque Country province. I was invited by my old roommates Txemi and Julia. We traveled by car five and a half hours, which for Spain is nearly a cross country trip and really far. It was a wonderful time. This was my second time to Vitoria, but a new experience.
I was so excited to visit because Vitoria is the European Green Capital for 2012. To me it was quite clear why. Vitoria is a much different city than many that I have seen in Spain. There are many parks within the city, bike lanes, community bikes that are free for citizens, and many trees along the streets. While in the city you feel more connected with nature.
While I was there we went for a bike ride through the city and a nearby park. I was able to see the new basketball stadium and the old basketball stadium which has been re-purposed to be a out-door concert hall during summer months. We tried pinchos every time we stopped for a coffee or glass of wine. Pinchos are like fancy tapas, a must try if you visit the Basque Country.
Visiting Vitoria felt so comfortable, largely because I was with my good friends Txemi and Julia. Thank you for showing me a good time and your home away from home.
Here are some pictures from the trip:
We traveled to the mountains near Vitoria one day to see the snow. This is what we saw:

These are Pinchos! Like tapas, but way better.

Cheese of the Week - Idiazabal
Hola,
I've decided to bring back Cheese of the Week. This past weekend I traveled to Vitoria, Spain and traveled to a village where I bought some Idiazabal cheese. Its so good! This cheese is similar to Manchego cheese, but has a richer, stronger flavor. Both cheeses are made from sheep's milk, but Idiazabal uses milk from a hairier breed giving the cheese a unique flavor. While in Vitoria we traveled fifteen minutes outside the city to the mountains to see the snow, yes to see the snow. We stopped in a town on our way back to the city and I bought some Idiazabal from a street vendor.
