I am a true lover of spanish and have lived in spanish country where I have been living for about 18 years now. I was born in Mexico and moved to the UK when I was 5 years old. I am now living in Spain and I love it. It is a vibrant, creative, and colorful country with a unique culture.
I think it is safe to say that many of the people you meet in spanish culture are also people you are meeting in other parts of the world. Spanish culture is a lot more diverse than many other cultures which makes it a much more interesting cultural landscape.
There are of course many other things that make spanish culture unique. The Spanish are very visual people and their love of fashion is second to none. In fact I would argue that fashion is the most unique aspect of spanish culture. They also have a great love for music, which is why Spanish music is so important to this culture.
