The guide is written and maintained by BootsnAll writer and intern Anne Paige Austin . If you would like to be an online travel guide, click here . Articles Camino de Santiago When was the last time the only thing written on your to-do list was "walk" - for 12 days straight? This was Anne Austin's 800km chance. Carnaval in Asturias A costumed Anne Paige Austin becomes "La Loca" for a Spanish Carnaval – and she even meets Osama. Festival Internacional de Benicassim Being a festive fibber only cost Anne Austin 110 euros, and that even came with a camping spot near the train tracks. Festivals Traditional Asturian festivals from the gastronomical to, of course, a Carnaval. Food - Places to Eat So many restaurants in one place make it impossible to list or visit them all, but Anne's hit the highlights for you. Heating up the Asturian Winter (Nov02) The days are only getting colder, and if anyone knows how to heat things up it's the Spanish, especially Asturian cooks and vintners. Hiking & Walking Hills, parks, markets and easy-to-access trails just outside of town give you outdoor nature in the midst of the city. Internet Cafes & Coffee Shops The best spots for espesso and email, and the skinny on what's fast, slow and cheap. Introduction: Welcome to Oviedo & Asturias Anne came to Spain from the U.S. Pacific Northwest to study. She loves the atypically Spanish region so much she's extended her stay. Articles Monuments See three of the most important historical monuments in all of Spain - and that's just for starters. Nightlife Don't even think of going home before 4 a.m. Outside Oviedo Just out of town coastal villages, seafood, skiing, mountain lakes, and more. Prince of Asturias Awards (Oct02) The reknown Prince of Asturias Awards don't quite make for a tourist-friendly month, but that's all the more reason to relax in a cafe and sip your sidra . Sidra (Cider) The art of the drink, which Asturians claim as their own, is almost second to the art of the pour. Somiedo You'll find lots of trust in this northern region, but even the cows will know you're a stranger. Transportation & Orientation You'll find it's pretty easy to get around this well-connected place.
