I might add that the beaches in Spain (depending where you go) are about 50% topless!!!!!Ģ) Paella is a rice dish cooked in a large flat pan called a “paella”. There’s a few bars right on the beach that have DJ’s playing great music. It’s a little beach town that’s pretty mellow except for July when they have a huge international rock fest that brings in about 100,000 people. My favorite spot is Benicasim, which is about 45 min north of Valencia. Now I’m a bit more casual about it but it’s still where I go a few days a week during the summer months. When I first moved to Spain I went to the beach and swam in the sea everyday. Here are 5 great things about Valencia and Spain in general.ġ) The Mediterranean coast is incredibly beautiful. Well, I’ve spent 2 years in Valencia, Spain which is located about 3 to 4 hours (drive) south of Barcelona on the Mediterranean. With his new album, Country Mouse, City House, out in the states at the end of the month, Rouse had a moment to candidly share some of is favorite spots in his adopted hometown of Valencia, Spain.
Having lived in Nashville, TN prior to the beginning of his music career, in the mid ’90s, Rouse has since made Spain his home for the past couple of years, soaking up both the experience and the culture.
Our inaugural Off The Record guest is one of my favorite contemporary singer-songwriters, Josh Rouse. Off The Record gathers some of my favorite artists, asks them to reflect on their city of residence, and choose a handful of places they could not live without, be them bookstores, bars, or vistas. Having a locals perspective when visiting a new locale is the difference between experiencing it through the lens of a tourist and of that of a native. Off The Record is a new, recurring, feature here on the Drunkard that will marry two of my greatest interests music and travel.
