    or the bathroom.

  3. It depends. But coastal towns has "something" special (talking about smells). They're fantastic. (I don't mean Benidorm or other summer resorts, but marine and historic towns).

    Big cities are polluted, although not as polluted as Beijing for example lol.

    Spain is relatively clean, but we're the Spaniards feel that it could be better, especially in very industrialised areas and mass-tourism oriented places.


  4. Not terribly polluted!  The country is VERY clean!  And Green,  WAY ahead of many other industrialized countries.

    Foods?  I don't think in terms of smelling foods that way.  When I order something, and it arrives, I can smell it, but otherwise, I don't notice as much, but I had a friend once, who thought that the entire country smelled like cooking olive oil!  So much so that he had a nightmare about it!  

    LOTS of flowers!  Orange blossoms in the Spring in Sevilla, Jacaranda bushes all over Andalucía.  There are some WONDERFUL gardens!  roses, etc.  You would have to experience.  

    Sure, there are places that smell of cooking fried boquerones (sardine-like fish) and cooking fish, seafood, paella, hams, oranges, you know, whatever is cooking.  I can tell you, it absolutely does NOT smell like passing a Burger King when you pass a restaurant in Spain.

    And, yes, when you are near the ocean or sea, you will smell salty air.  

  5. Wonderful
