My name is Maggie, and I’m British. I’m 25 years old, and I live and work at the University of Granada, in Spain. I love it! Why? Well, the weather is hotter than in Britain of course, and the food is fantastic. But my main reason is the Spanish people. I really like Spanish people. I think they are happier than British people. They are more sociable. They love singing and dancing, and they love their food. British people are sociable too, but I think Spanish people are happier. Maybe it’s the weather.

Living in Britain is more difficult. It’s more expensive, it’s colder, and the holidays are shorter! I love Britain too, of course, and one day I’ll go back, but right now I’m happy living in Spain!
