Allison wrote: "Do you like living in Spain?"Yes! Spain is really beautiful. It has a lot of history and there are many ancient monuments, buildings... From all the cultures that have been here: Romans, Visigoths, Muslims...
Also, there is a great variety of landscapes, from mountains to beaches, and even beautiful volcanic islands.

Austin wrote: "what is the Spanish country side like? what are the cities like?"Well, in the region where I live (La Rioja) wine is very famous. In fact, Rioja wine is exported all over the world. That's why there are many vineyards. The villages are very small and most of them are almost uninhabited. Only retired people live there. The rest only go to the villages when there are "fiestas", which are like festivals that each village celebrates on a weekend in summer. Each village has It's own traditions. For example, on Enciso's fiestas they burn a Knight to close The festival.
The cities are generally not very big. Some are very modern, like Madrid, Barcelona and Bilbao. Here, we all live in flats and the other people of the building are almost like family. There are lots of parks, green areas...

Yep, just a few days ago. Definitely very good.
Austin wrote: "I don't mean to be offensive, but I and genuinely curious on your views of the Reconquista."Don't worry:)
Well... I hadn't thought about that before. First of all, I think you have to bear in mind that at that time conquering was a normal thing to do. Therefore, it was understandable that the Muslims wanted to conquer the Iberian peninsula and then the Christians wanted to do the same. The only problem I have is the term Reconquista. For me, it should refer to the fact that the Christians re-conquered an already conquered territory rather than to the fact that they took over a territory because it already belonged to them before.
I don't know if I've explained myself.
Mod
Yes, because I personally believe that the land itself does not belong to anyone, so the dispute is not over it but between nations. But that's just my point of view. I'll understand if you don't agree. What do you think?

Dating as a Muslim is quite difficult. It totally depends on your parents, mostly at my age. You're supposed to marry with the person that your parents choose, which is always the "best" option for you. So if you have strict parents, you won't be able to date anyone because your parents know what is good for you and they'll find someone when it's time. But if your parents are more relaxed, you can date anyone you want and, if you want to, make them your life partner. My parents are quite strict in that sense and I'm sure if I tell them that there's a guy that I like and who has asked me out, they wouldn't let me date him. So I'd have to keep that secret. And that'd feel very bad because that's lying and I never lie to my Parents. And If you see the other side of the story, it'd be hard for the guy I'm dating to keep all that in secret so my parents don't know. And it's completely understandable. Dating it's sooo difficult...
Mod
Yeah I know... I hear my friends talking and I can't help feeling a bit jealous.
Mod
No I don't have a girlfriend.
I hate that you can't send emojis here. I like them a lot... I practically put them at the end of every message hahahaha It's easier for me to express myself, especially now that I'm writing in English.

There will be three dots and emoji should be an option then.
