Why traveling to Greece?

Image
Greece has 227 Islands; the largest are Crete, Euboea, Lesbos, Rhodes, and Chios. Greece has a typical Mediterranean climate, which lends itself to mild and often wet winters and dry summers. The country is mostly sunny throughout the year. The northern part of the country can be very cold during the winters. The best time to visit most of Greece is outside the mid-July to end of August peak season, when soaring temperatures, plus crowds of foreigners and locals alike, can be overpowering. And also, if you go during the off-season it’s going to be cheaper. The official language of Greece it’s Greek, but most of the population also talks English, German or French. So if you visit it you could have a conversation with almost everyone using English. Greece is a true paradise for cultural tourism; Greek myth takes many forms, from religious myths of origin to folktales and legends of heroes. Creation myths represent an attempt to explain the beginnings of the universe in human langu...

Are eating habits getting worse in Spain?

Image
  Did you know that as time goes people from Spain are eating worse? In the last years the rate of obesity is getting higher, we are getting closer to the EEUU rate of obesity. But, why is this happening? The main reason is our job and the entrance of women in the laboral life. Formerly, in a family the only one who has job was the man, usually the women stayed at home taking care of the children and doing the housework, that way the women prepared lunch and dinner for their husband and it didn’t' matter how long the journey of work of him was.  Another reason is the rhythm of life that we lead. We are busy almost all the time. We return home exhausted so we just want to have some rest. When we get to our home we use our phones or we see a series or a film and we don't move too much.  We don't do much exercise, so we have a sedentary lifestyle. This makes us gain weight and have worse health. Also, a reason of this deterioration of eating habits is the alc...

Something new is coming

Hello, let me introduce myself, my name is Mar, I'm 18 years old and I have just started university. I'm studying in Murcia and I'm also living in Murcia. Despite the fact that I don't know anyone here, it's being a marvelous experience. I can't wait to meet new people and do friends, go to a disco and have a drink... It sounds so good to me! Anyway, I'm very happy because my life has changed more in the last week than in the last 17 years. It's a very exciting experience because for me it's everything new, live by myself, a new way of studying, new people, a new city...  At first, it sounds scary to me the fact of living with people that I don't know because maybe they could be rude or mean and living with a person who you don't really know and whose personality it's just the opposite of mine doesn't sound very funny. But now that I know my roommates I foresee this year it's going to be awesome. I.'m living with three boys, t...
