My Favorite Place “Quinta los Quintos” was my favorite place when I was a girl. It is my grandparent´s weekend house, and for me is the most beautiful place, not only for its location in the mountains but for all the loving and joyful memories that I have of it. I spent almost of my childhood weekends and vacations in this beautiful place. It has a very extended land with trees, gardens, a great variety of different flowers, a swimming pool, and a space for a fireplace.

When we came back home we put on our bathing suites and got in to the pool, where we spent hours diving and playing and. On the afternoons, after lunch we played cards with the adults, planned our next expedition, played hide and seek, soccer and other outdoor games. As fun as the day was, my favorite time was at night. After dinner, the fireplace was lit and everybody would get around and sing, adults used to tell us how their child adventures and how they met, and stories funny things about our parents and grandparents. What really made that place special were the little details that my grandparents had for us. Grandma, Aunts and Mom were in charge of the food, which was always delicious, but made certain that everyone got their favorite meal while the vacation lasted. On
