I'm going to be traveling through Spain for about 3 weeks following my upcoming graduation. Â I will be visitting these cities roughly in this order: Barcelona, Madrid, Seville, Granada, as well as a lot of small cities on the coast between Seville and Granada A few questions for the board: Is Spain known for any sartorial wonders that I should look into? Â Are there any items manufactured in Spain that are a bargain? Â (in the same way peccary goods are cheaper in Peru) Any suggestions on where to do a little shopping? Â (districts in Madrid or Barcelona, or market places in small out of the way cities) Finally, and most importantly, I will be proposing to my girlfriend of four years somewhere in Spain. Are there any suggestions for where and how? Â I would like to add some pizzazz to what I hope will be an elegant proposal. My first inclination is to spell out "will you marry me?" in gasoline on a deserted beach, which would be set ablaze during a walk on the beach late at night. Â The engineer in me likes this, but, the pragmatist can imagine ending up in a Spanish jail. Â Please suggest locations and/or ideas for proposals. Â We will be traveling with a few friends, one of whom is a native Spanish speaker. Â Hence, I could potentially setup something rather elaborate with the help of my friend. Thanks for your help. (p.s. Â I sometimes feel a twinge of guilt over the money on spend on clothes. Â Gentlemen, if you're in a similar situation, don't feel guilty. Â Nothing will be even remotely as expensive as the rock you'll buy for the engagement. Â Also, I discovered an awesome resource for diamond information while I was researching engagement rings, namely www.pricescope.com)
