Return of the village people
Article Abstract:
It is very common for Spaniards who live in urban areas to spend time in the summer visiting the village from which their family originally came. Village life is extremely relaxed, with many residents being related. People spend many hours chatting with family and friends, and very few other activities are required. Villages are usually situated in very remote locations, and this gives a good opportunity to explore the countryside.
