spring has sprung! ¡Hola! We’re a third into the year and already the sun is shining on our backs as we walk down the street or warming our faces in our own particular plaza of choice, wherever that may be. This month we’ll be taking a trip to Benicassim, which, it turns out, is actually quite a functional village when not the home of the biggest music festival in Spain, and also drinking in El Principito (with chairs out in the sunny plaza I might add).

We’ve got festival mayhem taking over both the cinema and live music sections this month, as well as a battle of musical greats in I heart Valencia as glam rocker Marc Bolan and singer Nino Bravo put down their respective feather boas and microphones to flex their muscles. With the usual Expat, Music, Health, Green and Art sections, we’re sure that there’ll be something for everyone in this month’s magazine. Have a good read and happy Easter!, Andy, Kelly & Sean
