As a country, Spain has been seeing a good incremental boost in its population of International students. The country is famous for many aspects, predominant among these are the fun loving and partying people and probably because of a good relaxed approach to life, Spain did not involve itself in any of the wars.
The country is also popular for its beaches of which they have more than 8000, food, music, dance, some of the greatest monuments in Europe, the largest number of bars compared with any country in Europe and in the continent it’s the most populous country after France with a population of over 46 million.
All in all, a warm country with warm people who look for any cause for revelry and celebrations.
A typical evening out in Spain begins after 10 p.m. and can easily go on until 3 a.m. and after.
Most Spaniards use two surnames, the father’s and the mother’s.
Spanish is quite a vast language and their dictionary has more than 100,000 words. After Mandarin, Spanish is the most widely spoken language in the world. A language, you must learn before you move to the country.
Home to some of the best universities, Spain charges the same fees to the EU and the Non EU students and this is quite reasonable, under 1200 Euros per annum in most cases.
