Summary

This is a new breed of travel guides, the first student guides to satisfy the real needs and interests of a college-age crowd. The tone: fresh, sarcastic, irreverent, intrepid, but not anti-intellectual. This complete guide covers Spain2s hottest party towns and resorts, most gorgeous (and challenging) outdoor spots, and secluded towns where you can lay low and mingle with the locals. We highlight everything a hip, young crowd wants: the club and music scene, the best bars, hanging out, retro shopping, cheap eats and sleeps, the gay and lesbian scene, a fresh take on all the cultural sights, and more! Hanging Out in Spain covers Madrid, Barcelona, Seville and much more, all with dozens of maps.
