Changes

Spain consists of the 17 ''Comunidades Autónomas''. These are not only administrative destricts; Many of the regions have their own culture, language and some even don’t consider themselves as a part of Spain. For example the dominating language in Catalonia is Catalan and getting around with ''castellano'' (spanish) is not always possible.

English is taught at school, but due some droll shyness, lot’s of Spaniards refuse to speak it. For this reason, most travellers learn at least ''un poquito'' (a little bit) of the Spanish language during their stay. The phrase ''Bas a... ?'' (are you going to... ?) is an excellent starting point.

Spain has a very active sqatting scene. It’s quite easy to find a place to crash by asking around for a ''casa ocupada''.
